Saundra,
Were’nt you saved before you became Mormon. All those years you spent as a Christian, didn’t you ever once ask Christ into your life and your heart?
I just would be surprised if you hadn’t. So indeed He would be your Savior.
I would heed Mormons to stop searching for something outside Him to save you. You can do nothing to add to what he has already done.
Through Mormonism one searches for their own glory by performing ordinances, oaths, works and taking covenants.
Have you been through the Temple yet?

This is a very interesting testimony at that link. I remember never feeling certain about my salvation when I was attending the other churches. And since the preachers often contradicted each other, it was confusing. You know, the pentecostals do not get along with the Baptists, and none of them seem to be able to accept the Catholics.
One time when I was attending Faith, Hope & Love in Issaquah WA, the pastor got up there and told us not to criticize him, that a guy who criticized him dropped dead. “Touch not God’s annointed.” Fear tactic. Anyway, I gave $1,700 to the building fund and not long after, the entire church folded and that pastor disappeared. To this day, I do not know what happened to my $1,700 or to that pastor.
So you can see why I felt something was missing. By the way, I also became disillusioned by the healing stuff. The Baptists teach that you should ask for healing and end with “if it be thy will”. The evangelicals that I hung around with said “it is always God’s will for you to be healed.” But there’s this guy in a wheelchair who does not get healed and a guy with a headache gets healed and gets all excited, running around, jumping up and down, praising God, and the guy in the wheelchair looks rejected. The whole thing started to turn my stomach. The Baptists seem unsure about healing. They also seem unsure who they are praying to. If the Holy Spirit is God, why don’t they pray to the Holy Ghost. Dear Holy Ghost, please heal me . . . and how to close . . . in whose name. They seem confused.
I love my Church. It is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I feel safe here. We pray to Heavenly Father in the Name of His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost leads and guides us.
