So does Sceintology, Islam & Judaism. Doesn’t mean they are Christians right? ___________________________________________________________
This is not a thread I would have started, but I fail to see some of the logic trying to be made here. Scientology, Islam & Judaism are not trying to extend themselves into the tent of Christianity. To them if we were to call any of them Christians they would be deeply offended.
Dang, you are just mean and nasty.
That surprised me too, that the BoM contradicted LDS theology.
Heaven help if their neighbor's house in on fire in the middle of the night. By that logic the decision would be “well they have a right to be warm if they choose” and “it would be hateful to judge if a burning house is the best way to keep cozy, best not interfere"...
But you do not get to write a new book, follow the new book just as much as the old book, but claim you are the exact same thing as before you wrote the new book.
What is wrong with being called “Mormon”? I would even go so far as to say “Mormon Christian”. But if someone described their organization as “Christian” and then later I found out it was Mormon, I would consider that a lie by omission.
Define the LDS view of ‘salvation’, and are other rites/works at ALL required to enter the presence of God according to the LDS?
Can exaltation be found outside the LDS church?
One of the problems in witnessing/talking to the LDS is they use Christian terms but have their own meanings for them, so they will say things that SOUND Christian but in reality bear no resemblance to Christian doctrine.
;)
But I am not wrong.
You are not nasty either.
How about mean? ;)
Nor mean.
Thanks. :)
You guys are just over the top. I cannot believe you waste so much energy against mormons and their church. Your childish comebacks and petty innuendos only confirm your emotional shortcomings. You need hugs big time.

Christianity is not defined by an opinion about another faith ... but is defined by the central belief that Christ is the Resurrected Son of God, and the only available path to Salvation.
“Huh, well, thats my core belief and I am LDS. Can I put my name in your quotes instead of anti-Mormon?”
You might want to look up the meaning of words like THE and ONLY. because either you are lying about your faith, or you have no idea what mormonism is.
Correction, check post #31
Witness of the Biblical Christ and the defense of Christianity against the errors of heresy is NEVER a waste of time.
“We dont say You all dont believe in Christ the way we do so YOU arent Christian.
What’s the point of sending those young men door to door in our communities to try and convert people to mormonism then? Do you know that those young men don’t know our Bible from a hole in the ground?
