so you are perceptive enough to know that the Jesus that mormons worship is different than your Jesus, because their understanding and description of Jesus is not in synch with your beliefs. ask any two people at an accident what they have witnessed, and i would be willing to bet that their descriptions of the same events would differ, even tho, both witnessed the same thing. ask two people who have met someone for the first time to describe that person after he has left, and i would bet there would be differences in their descriptions; even in their perception of what that person was like. ask 2 people at a crime scene what the suspect looked like and see if they differ. that happened to me and another person and we both recalled differences in what the suspect looked like. just because mormons attribute different characteristics than yours to Jesus doesn’t mean that you and the mormon aren’t worshiping the same Son of God.

“so you are perceptive enough to know that the Jesus that mormons worship is different than your Jesus, because their understanding and description of Jesus is not in synch with your beliefs.”

No. It is because I’ve interacted with mormons for more than 30 years, including wonderful former mormons who have come to know Christ. Many on FR.

“ask any two people at an accident what they have witnessed, and i would be willing to bet that their descriptions of the same events would differ, even tho, both witnessed the same thing.”

Really, not a good analogy. In this case, there is no fast car accident. There is the inspired Word of God, which we can study in slow motion and in the original languages. It contradicts the evils of mormon teaching.

“ask two people who have met someone for the first time to describe that person after he has left, and i would bet there would be differences in their descriptions; even in their perception of what that person was like.”

In this case, we meet the Real Jesus Christ in the pages of Scripture. God has specifically inspired the words He used about His Son. If you read it and deny His description, as mormonism does, you are simply wrong.

“just because mormons attribute different characteristics than yours to Jesus doesn’t mean that you and the mormon aren’t worshiping the same Son of God.”

The only characteristics attributable to Christ are those He actually has. Being created is not one. Being married is not one. And so much more.

just because Muslims attribute different characteristics than yours to Jesus doesn’t mean that you and the Muslims aren’t worshiping the same God.
