Sort of. They worship Christ, do they not?

For those who Trust in Jesus as their Savior, below are the characteristics of the Mormon jesus. See if these characteristics are the ones which fit the Jesus of the Bible, the Jesus you would trust as Savior:

Mormons believe Jesus was married at the marriage feast in Cana where He changed water into wine.

Mormons believe that the Mormon jesus was married to more than one woman.

The Mormon jesus was persecuted because he was a polygamist.

The Mormon jesus came into existence when his father in heaven created him along with his brothers and sisters, as a spirit being who was not yet a god.

Mormons believe Lucifer was one of the Mormon jesus's brothers, before the Mormon jesus became a man and later a god.

The Mormon jesus has become one individual god in a troika of gods which includes the Mormon jesus's father--who was once a man and inhabits a body of flesh and bones and through goodness gained the attributes of godhood when he was selected by a council of gods to be the god of earth--and the ‘never to receive a fleshly body’ holy spirit.

The Mormon jesus can save you, after all that you can do to be worthy of the grace of the Mormon godhead--which is, again, a troika of three gods working for a common purpose.

Mormons believe their jesus can save a person who rejected Him while in their body, by accepting a proxy baptism for them performed in a Mormon Temple by a Temple worthy Mormon.

The Mormon jesus gained the attributes of godhood through the life he lived in the flesh, which gained for that jesus exaltation.

___________________________________________________________

Every one of that list of the Mormon jesus characteristics is based upon the teachings from Mormon leaders who are attested as true by Mormons, for if they do not swear they attest to these teachers' characterizations then they have no temple recommend!

When a Mormon accuses someone who opposes those heresies regarding Jesus of lying about their religious beliefs, we post the actual quotes of the teachers who said these things about the jesus Mormons are trusting to save them after all that they can do. And when one comes to make a vague accusation because of this post, I will list the quotes as they have been listed throughout this thread and others for days now.

Well there is the Christ of Mormon theology and then there’s Yashua of the Bible. So to answer your question. No, they do not worship Yashua of the Bible - they worship someone called “Jesus” who is the spirit brother of Lucifer. That’s their theology. And saying so is not anti-Mormon. It’s anti-Mormon THEOLOGY.

Matthew 15:8 “’These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me”.

Yep. Totally saved. They believe in Jesus as the Son of God. That’s all you need.

Don’t know much about Mormonism, do ya Gary.

Mormons believe Jesus is A son of God (so is Lucifer).

They also believe that Jesus was not always God but a created being, begotten by God the Father having sex with Mary.

Jesus wasn’t always God, rather he had to EARN His godhood by being Morally perfect and that they can become Gods themselves through works. They are not saved by grace but only by works.

They also redfine things like Saved and grace.

When I was LDS I thought I was a Christian. It wasn’t until I really read the Bible and encountered the Jesus of the Bible that I saw how heretical and damning Mormon teachings are.

Not saved, not in the least. And not Christian.
