Jesus Christ is my Savior, Redeemer and personal Friend. I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I am grateful to Heavenly Father for sending His Son to die for me to save me from my sins. The Holy Ghost tells me it’s true.

I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I wish people would stop telling lies about my faith and my candidate.

What 'latter day conman' has authority to rewrite the Bible, adding thousands of words that are not in the Hebrew so he can write in false prophesies of his 'coming in these latter days'? By his own authority, Joe Smith claimed the right, through fabricated visions or visions from a satanic source!

Smith established a religion which had as its base premise, that since the death of the last Apostle, ONLY through Mormon baptism or proxy baptism for the long dead can those who confess or confessed Jesus as Lord be Saved! Such a gross heresy must be opposed. That some cannot see it is heresy is telling of their lacking spiritual discernment.

And now we have a man running for President who believes these heresies. He is a family man, a clean man, unlike sinkEmperor, but he is no less lost to God's counsel. Should America embrace such a man because he is a clean man yet holds to gross heresies? In clinton's degeneracy we had clear indication that such a man should not be embraced, and we are still reaping the fruit of that man ruling this nation.

That is the question folks don't want to ask, Saundra, should we embrace a clean man who holds strong heresies as truth? And what will be the fruit we endure following such an man's rule? Sweetness and light do not issue from gross heresies, Saundra, despite how clean looking is Mitt the Mormon.

Please help me with this; if you believe in Christ and the holy spirit, why do you need silk under-garments to protect you?

I am not being a bigot as some MittBotts claim. It is a legitimate question.

As I started this thread, answer the question.

I was at one time a Mason. So was Smith. Understand Free Masonary and you understand many principles of LDS. I lived with Mormans for 21 yrs. Great people of the community,family values, great citizens of our country.

Why the MittBots get scunched up is beyond me. Sorta like CAIR.

Be open and disclose. It is a fair question.

“Jesus Christ is my Savior, Redeemer and personal Friend. I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I am grateful to Heavenly Father for sending His Son to die for me to save me from my sins. The Holy Ghost tells me it’s true.”

“I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I wish people would stop telling lies about my faith and my candidate.”

A Mormon is NOT a Christian:

Mormonism says: God is the Supreme Being of the universe, but he has not always held that position. He gradually attained godhood by living a perfectly righteous life.

…We must accept the fact that there was a time when Deity was much less powerful than He is today. Then how did He become glorified and exalted and attain His present status of Godhood? In the first place, aeons ago God undoubtedly took advantage of every opportunity to learn the laws of truth and as He became acquainted with each new verity He righteously obeyed it. From day to day He exerted His will vigorously, and as a result became thoroughly acquainted with the forces lying about Him. As He gained more knowledge through persistent effort and continuous industry, as well as through absolute obedience, His understanding of the universal laws continued to become more complete. Thus He grew in experience and continued to grow until He attained the status of Godhood. In other words, He became God by absolute obedience to all the truth, and thereby became the author of eternal truth. Therefore, the road that the Eternal Father followed to Godhood was one of living at all times a dynamic, industrious, and completely righteous life. There is no other way to exaltation.
—Milton R. Hunter, The Gospel Through the Ages (Salt Lake City: Steven & Wallis, 1945), pp. 114-115 (emphasis added).

Mormonism also teaches that God the Father has a body of flesh and bones.

The Father has a body of flesh and bones as tangible as man’s; the Son also…

—Doctrine and Covenants, 130:22.
The Bible says: God has existed eternally in perfection, and has never had less of His infinite power and wisdom than He has today. Adam was the first created man of flesh.

Mormonism says: Jesus and Satan, like the rest of us, were spirit brothers and sons of God before the spirit of Jesus was given a body by Mary in Bethlehem. The Mormon “Book of Moses” presents Satan and Jesus as contending for the privilege of taking a body of flesh in order to become the redeemer, with Jesus winning the contest. [See Joseph Smith, Pearl of Great Price, Book of Moses 4:1-4.]

Mormonism also teaches that Jesus was the physical son of God the Father and Mary, and that there is nothing in His life more than what is attainable by anyone else.

When the Virgin Mary conceived the child Jesus… he was not begotten by the Holy Ghost. And who is his Father? He is the first of the human family. …Jesus our elder brother, was begotten in the flesh by the same character that was in the garden of Eden.
—Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, 1:50-51, as cited in Gordon H. Fraser, Is Mormonism Christian? (Chicago: Moody, 1955), p. 58.

His humanity is to be recognized as real and ordinary …whatever happened to him may happen to any one of us. …The divinity of Jesus, and the divinity of all other noble and stately souls, in so far as they, too, have been influenced by a spark of Deity - can be recognized as manifestations of the Divine.
—Parley P. Pratt, Key to the Science of Theology (Salt Lake City: Deseret, 1883) (emphasis added).

The Bible says: Jesus Christ has existed eternally as God the second Person of the Trinity, and then took on a human nature at His birth in Bethlehem. Since then He exists eternally as one Person with both divine and human natures.

That’s just the tip of the iceberg.

No, believe what you wish but you are NOT following Christ or His teachings in the Bible. I refuse to vote for such an OBVIOUS cult that has no bearing to Christianity.

I hope you atleast don’t engage in pologomy as your original prophet required. Thankfully the U.S. Supreme Court struck that DOWN since at THAT time we were a CHRISTIAN nation and that violates Christian principles.

If you really want to follow CHRIST, see how Mormonism does NOT follow Christ:

http://www.christiananswers.net/q-acb/acb-r002a.html

Others are familiar with your “faith” so talking about it shouldn’t be as offensive as YOU find it. Try following Christ! And please don’t fall for believing that polygamy is okay as your “prophet”, your ORIGINAL “prophet” would like you to follow.

Nope won’t EVER vote for a Mormon. We have enough problems ... voting a cult follower into office we don’t need.
