For a Christian, Salvation is Eternal life with God.
Go ahead, now that I answered what is exaltation?
Because with Mormon salvation, you do not dwell with God - Therefore Mormon salvation is not equal with Christian Salvation. In the telestial Kingdom, the terrestrial Kingdom - no dwelling with God - only in the Celestial Kingdom through Exaltation which a Mormon must earn through works, does one have free exchanges with God, by becoming a god.
And no more of your snide, “if you were Mormon,” crap. I was Mormon. I can post my entire genealogy if you wish....Mormons now and going back to the mid 1800’s every.single.one! - I once had it on my homepage. At least be man enough to grant me my history.
No, you still have it wrong. You said that with Mormons, salvation is to not live with God. I’ve never been taught that. Where did you hear that from? Exaltation is impossible without salvation.
There are two different forms of salvation, spiritual and physical.
In typical Christianity, I have heard many Evangelicals state that the rewards they receive in Heaven is based on their works, but getting to Heaven, or being saved, is strictly based on grace.
I’m not saying that all Evangelicals believe this, but I have many tell me that this is what they believe. Am I mistaken here?
