Did I say that? Seems to me, there is only ONE Jesus Christ. Find a post where I said any differently.

And by the way, this is not my first time on an anti- thread. FYI.

Monkey you are absolutely correct, there is only ONE Jesus Christ and He is the Biblical Jesus, NOT the lds jesus which is not Biblical. The Biblical Christ is eternal, the lds jesus is a created being with a beginning and an end.

Did I say that?

No, you didn't. It's just what Mormons believe

Seems to me, there is only ONE Jesus Christ

I agree, that's why the Jesus the Mormons preach is not Jesus Christ

Seems to me, there is only ONE Jesus Christ [Monkey Face, post #92]

What then, Monkey Face, do you do with the false messiahs Jesus talked about in Matthew 24? (If they show up when you're still around, are you going to say they are the same Jesus who appeared before?) The apostle Paul claimed there was another Jesus in 2 Cor. 11:3-4.

If you go back to the last 25 years of the 20th century into the beginnings of the 21st century -- per official Mormon publications -- they actually agreed with the distinction many have made on this thread that Mormons focus on a different jesus

Lds "prophet" Gordon B. Hinckley: “There are those outside the Church who say Latter-day Saints do not believe in the traditional Christ. No, I don’t. The traditional Christ of whom they speak is not the Christ of whom I speak.” (LDS Church News, June 20, 1998)

Hinckley again: As a Church we have critics, many of them. They say we do not believe in the traditional Christ of Christianity. There is some substance to what they say. Our faith, our knowledge is not based on ancient tradition, the creeds which came of a finite understanding and out of the almost infinite discussions of men trying to arrive at a definition of the risen Christ. Our faith, our knowledge comes of the witness of a prophet in this dispensation who saw before him the great God of the universe and His Beloved Son, the resurrected Lord Jesus Christ. ("We Look to Christ", from April 2002 General Conference.)

“It is true that many of the Christian churches worship a different Jesus Christ than is worshipped by the Mormons.” – LDS publication, Ensign Magazine, May 1977, p. 26

"And virtually all the millions of apostate Christendom have abased themselves before the mythical throne of a mythical Christ whom they vainly suppose to be a spirit essence who is incorporeal uncreated, immaterial and three-in-one with the Father and Holy Spirit" (Lds "apostle" Bruce McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, p. 269).

So the Mormon official publications say they worship a different Christ...
The Mormon "prophet" said they speak about, believe and acknowledge a different Christ...
Most Christians say they worship, speak of and trust another Jesus...

So. We are seemingly on the same page...except for you, Monkey Face and some probable lurkers. (Why do we have a few stragglers who are out of harmony???)
