A man’s belief isn’t what saves. We are saved by grace through the means of faith (see Ephesians 2). The object of our faith is the One who saves, so it matters very much who the object of our faith is. While Mormons believe certain true facts about Christ, their Jesus is not the Jesus Christ of Scripture. Mere belief in a man named Jesus Christ is not salvific belief. Consider Matthew 7 where Christ taught that on the day of judgment there would be many who said “Lord Lord” (meaning they will be many who had claimed Him as Lord) to whom He would say ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

would you be so kind , with your infinite wisdom as to give us all a complete list of the requirements for salvation. If we must be sinless please list all sins. If we must “obey” please list each item specifically that we must do to obey. Thank you so much!!
