Don’t be insulting. Just because you call him Jesus doesn’t mean he is. The LDS Jesus was a being that had a beginning. The Biblical Jesus did not. The LDS Jesus is the second person of the ONE God. The LDS Jesus is one of many gods. The Biblical Jesus died for ALL of our sins and His death completely and wholly purchases redemption and heaven for the believer. The LDS says that our works determine which heaven we go to - the one where non-Mormons go (the lowest), the one where somewhat faithful Mormons go. The one where obedient Mormons go where they can aspire to godhood.

Yes, Delphi, I know the guy in the Bible. You do not.
I have degrees in both history and theology - so I’m well aware of the folks you speak of. The LDS’s historical claims are extremely poor to be generous.

I Said: Don’t be insulting. Just because you call him Jesus doesn’t mean he is.

Don't be insulting? HAH! You sir have been nothing but.

Here is where the I'm rubber and your Glue arguments start.

U Said: The LDS Jesus was a being that had a beginning. The Biblical Jesus did not.

The Bible says he was born in Bethlehem...

U Said: The LDS Jesus is the second person of the ONE God. The LDS Jesus is one of many gods.

It is you who misunderstands, Jesus is one with his father, but it's not a oneness of substance as you unbiblically allege, it is a oneness as is used throughout the Bible, Adam and Eve Commanded to be one flesh, the Disciples Commanded to be one even as God and Christ are one, we have been commanded to be one with each other and Christ, and you think that God and Jesus' oneness is "of one substance, With that logic, I hope you are not allowed to interpret the Second amendment some day...

U Said: The Biblical Jesus died for ALL of our sins and His death completely and wholly purchases redemption and heaven for the believer.

On this point we agree completely.

I Said: The LDS says that our works determine which heaven we go to - the one where non-Mormons go (the lowest), the one where somewhat faithful Mormons go. The one where obedient Mormons go where they can aspire to godhood.

You have a limited at best understanding, this explanation of yours is entirely wrong.

U Said: Yes, Delphi, I know the guy in the Bible. You do not.

When is the last time you saw him? Joseph smith learned more about Jesus Christ in a few minutes in that grove than you could ever know.

U Said: I have degrees in both history and theology - so I’m well aware of the folks you speak of. The LDS’s historical claims are extremely poor to be generous.

An interesting defense, "your argument is poor, abandon it."

LOL!
