Your made up title is unnecessarily provocative. I’d ask the moderator to change it if I were you.

[T Minus Four]

I intended it to be provocative. Aren’t you alarmed by the claim?

[DManA]

It doesn’t alarm be but no good can come from it.

Well, according to lds Jesus is a mormon. He has been dead baptized and his marriages have been recorded in their ancestry.

[Carpe Cerevisi]

I’m a little slow on the uptake for the moment...where’s the part where it implies (or says directly) that Jesus was a Mormon?

[T Minus Four]

Well, than go find something you believe in fighting for and do so. This is my hill.

[svcw]

For people who claim in their articles of faith that the Bible is flawed they sure spend a lot of time quoting it to justify their blaspheming BoM.

[T Minus Four]

With one striking exception, the LDS Church's leaders and members are, and always have been, flawed people

I was worried for a second - at least they didn't mean Joseph Smith.

[ejonesie22]

The “Truth” is provocative?

LDS folk think Jesus was one of them.

[colorcountry]

Daniel Peterson loves donuts....AND Joseph Smith was indeed a sinful man.

[mountainlion]

The title is impossible as Jesus was a Jew and lived 2000 years before the Mormons came along. Why would I want to read an article form an uninformed alarmists?

[svcw]

It is interesting as you point out. However, lds have dead baptized Jesus, sealed Him in marriage, recorded those marriages and to lds everyone is a Gentile.

Daniel Peterson loves donuts

Well, I suppose donuts do not violate the letter of the law of the Word of Wisdom, but perhaps the spirit.

Just goes to show you how a religion of laws becomes an exercise in doing the least that is required.

[mountainlion]

That is about like me saying I reject you therefore you do not exist. You are saying that lsd is greater than Jesus is and that you can capture him with non Biblical beliefs and take whatever you want to build up an un Biblical religion. I accept Jesus not you.

[magritte]

Everybody knows that Jesus was Catholic...duh..ble/sarc....magritte

[svcw]

ah no. I am not sure what your response has to do with my post. I was pointing out what lds teach, not what I believe.
It was Joseph Smith who said he was greater than Jesus. lds do not believe in the Biblical Jesus. They believe is a created Jesus.
I am just going with you thought I was defending lds, I was not. lds is blaspheme at its finest. lds is not God's Church. lds is build on lies.
satan lied to Eve - you to can be a god
satan lied to Joseph Smith - you to can be god
Joseph Smith lied to everyone

I don’t appreciate the “tease” just to get someone to read the article. Nowhere in the article did the man say Jesus was Mormon. I think the mods should change the title too.

This is an affront to Christians, especially in this time of Lent.

[mountainlion]

I did misunderstand. The only way to God is through Jesus Christ. That is my basic belief. I really do not an understanding of Mormons but I don't have a need to study them their beliefs.
