Mormons worship the same Jesus Christ of the New Testament and the particularly the synoptic Gospels just as you do.

former mormon president, seer and revelator Hinkley is on record stating the the Jesus of mormonism is not the Jesus of Christianity.

This is clearly spelled out by their doctrine

Mormon Jesus is a created being, spirit brother to satan as well as you and I.
The mormon Jesus is one God in a mormon pantheon of gods inhabiting the universe
The sacrifice of Jesus only allowed for a general resurrection.

The Jesus of Christianity is the uncreated God the Son, eternal and almighty, creator of angels and man
The Jesus of Christianity is part of the Singular Trinity - one God, three Persons,continually sharing the singular divinity.
The Jesus of Christianity's sacrifice paid the FULL price for our sins and continually cleanses us, bring us straight to the Heavenly Father upon our death.

True Christians are generous and large in spirit, not denying others of their relationship with God and Christ just because there are differences in how you relate to them. It is utterly crappy and childish to claim Christ all to yourself and others who think like you and to deny him to anyone else.

Trusting in and following a fictitious Christ will result in a fictitious salvation, no matter how sincere we may be. Show where we are 'denying' him to anyone else. Jesus Himself said some would say "lord, lord" on that day, and Jesus will say "I never knew you"

That is NEVER anything Christ taught nor is it Christian. This is all I will have to say on the matter because I hate wasting time on such ugliness of soul which is antithetical to the love of Christ.

Who do you think Jesus was speaking to when He said "REPENT"? Who was Peter speaking to in Acts on Pentecost? Who was Paul speaking to throughout his epistles? They all were speaking to correct and bring people to the correct truth.

That Hinkley bit, along with the other facts, pretty much ends the “LDS follow the same Christ” argument when it arises...
