Jesus is the only begotten Son of God. That’s my Jesus.
I found this at lds.org. It is a very general summary of the differences between LDS and Christian churches. I’ll insert my comments in [[brackets like this]]:
The following are some of the more important differences in belief and practice between The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and other Christian churches.
Restoration
Because Latter-day Saints believe that divine apostolic authority was lost from the earth after the death of the ancient apostles, a restoration of that authority was necessary. Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe that restoration began in the early 1800s with revelations to the young Joseph Smith.
[[Christians, or “other Christian churches” as they call us, do not believe this.]]
Trinity
Among the most important differences with other Christian churches are those concerning the nature of God and Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Together, these form what is commonly referred to as the Holy Trinity in many churches and as the Godhead by Latter-day Saints.
[[It does not explain what the differences are, but it clearly states that one of the most important differences between us is the nature of God and Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Sounds like a very fundamental, core-doctrine difference, whatever it is, as Christian doctrine is non-negotiable on the nature of God.]]
Modern prophets, continuing revelation and new scriptures
Latter-day Saints believe that God still speaks to humankind, that He has called new apostles and prophets and that revelation flows today as it did anciently. Further, many of those revelations have been formally incorporated into new volumes of scripture. These include the Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ; the Doctrine and Covenants, a collection of revelations to Joseph Smith and subsequent presidents of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints; and the Pearl of Great Price, which includes the writings of Moses and Abraham as well as modern writings of Joseph Smith.
[[Christians do not accept any scripture except for the Bible, and the Bible alone. And we do not accept new prophets, apostles, or revelations. Absolutely fundamental difference here.]]
Plan of salvation
Latter-day Saint theology embraces what Mormons refer to as the plan of salvation. The topic covers the pre-mortal state of all mankind, the reasons why God created the world, the nature and purpose of our life here and what future awaits us in the next life.
[[I am assuming that the pre-mortal state means that we all existed before we came to earth in mortal bodies? Correct me if I am wrong. Christians do not believe we ever had a pre-mortal state. We believe we did not exist as spirits or people before conception in the womb. We also differ on what the next life is all about. Fundamental differences here.]]
Temples and their purpose
The primary purpose of temple work is to seal or unite families together, with the expectation that those relationships continue beyond death. The same temple rites can be performed for those who have died. There is no counterpart to temple practices in other Christian churches.
[[Like they say, there is no counterpart to this in Christian churches. We do not believe in sealing families, and do not believe these relationships continue in the next life, though we will see each other.]]
Missionary program
This is a difference in practice rather than in doctrinal belief, since many Christian churches send out missionaries to preach the gospel. However, the missionary program of the Church is distinctive and recognizable for the sheer number and distribution of missionaries, for the length and variety of their service, and for their appearance and their preaching of a restored gospel.
[[Right, Christians do not preach a restored gospel. We preach the gospel as it is written in the Bible.]]
Lay ministry
The Church of Jesus Christ has no full-time professional clergy at the congregational level. Even at the highest levels of the Church, leaders who are called as full-time apostles forsake their more remunerative professions in order to serve a lifetime calling as special witnesses of Jesus Christ and to oversee the Church worldwide.
[[Yes it’s different.]]
Health practices
Abstinence from alcohol among religious faiths is not unique to Latter-day Saints. However, among Latter-day Saints abstinence from alcohol is expected to be total, as is the abstinence from tobacco, tea and coffee.
[[Christians do not hold abstinence from these things as fundamental to the faith. There certainly are Christians who abstain from these things, and the Bible teaches that it is wrong to get drunk.]]
Based on this very general summary of the differences between LDS and “other Christian churches,” it is clear that there are fundamental differences in core doctrines. These differences, to Christians, lead Christians to conclude that the LDS is not consistent with Christian doctrine.
“Jesus is the only begotten Son of God. Thats my Jesus.”
But Adam was also apparently a God, and eve just one of many wives. The conundrum, who to worship?
Sandra, you didn’t answer my question. Is Jesus the Son of God? Or is he the brother of Satan?
Do you give pro-Baptist talks when you preach to the men and women in your assembly?
Is Satan the son of God?
