Well Catholics and all the other Christians say that Lutherans are Christians. Catholics and all the other Christian churches say that Mormonism is not Christian.

It just might help to read the whole article.

And yet; that great MORMON Organization; based in SLC, say that the Flds folks (you know them: they actually FOLLOW MORMON Scripture: D&C 132) are not 'really' MORMON.
Salt Lake City needs a new 'revelation'!
“The jesus we believe in is not the traditional Jesus”
(Gordon Hinckley, Mormon leader)
People who believe in Christ are not Christians.
Wooooooo.

First off, this is not a “hobby”, for many of us this is calling, a ministry.
Second, it is WHAT they believe about Jesus Christ that makes them not Christians.
Christians believe that:
...Jesus is God, and always has been God
...Jesus is NOT a created being
...Jesus is not equal to Satan (or even close)
...Jesus was conceived miraculously through the Power of the Holy Ghost.
...the Atonement of Christ paid for all of our sins, not just those we can’t “work off”
...the Atonement took place on the Cross
...Christ’s death was part of His sacrifice for us
...Christ is our ONLY savior, not some decendant or a “prophet”
...Christ was not married
Mormons OTOH, believe the following (and I used to be a very active, very faithful Mormon):
...Jesus had to earn his Godhood by coming to earth, getting a body and becoming Perfect. His Godhood is his reward for living a good life.
...Jesus is a created being (a “spirit child of God and one of his wives called Heavenly Mother)
...Jesus is our “older brother”, Satan was the second “spirit child”, Jesus was first and the rest of us followed.
...Jesus is the LITERAL son of God, and that God (who has a body of flesh and bone, had sexual relations with Mary to concieve Jesus making Mary one of his wives).
...the Atonement of Christ only “kicks in” AFTER we do everything we can to make up our “mis-steps”. This includes membership in the Mormon Church (the ONLY true Church), mandatory tithe, temple attendance, church attendance and callings (some equivelant to full time jobs), 2 yr mission (if at all possible) to convert others not humanitarian, and so on (the list can go on forever).
...the Atonement took place in the Garden of Gesthemene
...Christ’s death was only necessary because he had to die so he could be resurrected, thus guaranteeing resurrection for everyone. His death becomes a footnote in their theology.
...thru temple work for the dead, we act as “saviors” for our dead ancestors who were not married, as well as other and that we will need the permission of Joseph Smith to get into Heaven.
...Christ was married, and probably a polygamist.
I can provide quotes if you would like.
THOSE ARE HUGE DIFFERENCES between Christians and Mormons. They have a very differing Christology, one that demeans Christ and His sacrifice.
Satan believes the Christ exists. Don’t mean he’ll be on the other side of the pearly gates.
Wooooooo.

They do not believe in the deity of Christ. Do you think that could be a problem?
