"Different Jesus in BoM versus the Holy Scriptures."

LDS theology about Christ is consistant with the LDS view of what the Bible says. Your theology is consistiant with with your view of what the Bible says. Both of us think our view is correct, but being correct is not part of the definition of 'christian'.

It is up to each person to do their best to study and follow Christ, and it us up to God to pass judgement on us at the end. And if you want to go on the warpath against some religion you don't agree with, this isn't the thread for it.

....being correct is not part of the definition of 'christian'.

and...being correct is DEFINITELY not part of the definition of LDS!

15. So then, brothers, stand firm and hold to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.

NIV 1 Timothy 1:7
7. They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not know what they are talking about or what they so confidently affirm.

NIV 1 Timothy 2:7
7. And for this purpose I was appointed a herald and an apostle--I am telling the truth, I am not lying--and a teacher of the true faith to the Gentiles.
