I appreciate your observations and thoughts.
I want to be clear that I am not judging Saundra for her statement. I’m seeking clarification of what she means when she says she loves Jesus.
In fact, if she answers that she loves the mormon Jesus and not the Biblical Christ, I am not judging her for that.
I believed far, far worse before the advent of God’s revelation and grace in my life (which I assure all was unmerited and undeserved in any way) - and I don’t know the struggles she has faced in her life or that path she’s trod.
I’m simply trying to understand what she actually means when she posts this (which she has posted numerous times.
Best,

And my response was in part because I do not expect a well reasoned answer. You cannot give an answer for something that you do not understand.
So much of the LDS terms and such are rote rather than fully thought through and understood.
Been there, done that.
And I have no doubt that SD BELIEVES it is the same Christ and that she loves Him. I did too when I was LDS.
It was only after I left the LDS and came to really know what Christ’s grace and love was (through being Born Again spiritually) did I fully understand that I had no clue about Christ or His love when I was LDS.
