"Christ didnt teach Peace and love of neighbor? I beg to differ."

Sure he did. The Bible also says no man (other than Jesus) who ever live has consistently practiced love of neighbor or peace. That's the law. Christ taught that the ONLY way to salvation is a sincere belief in him and a regeneration of one's soul, a process Jesus called being born again. If this happens one will naturally accept a duty to love one's neighbor although they will never be able to practice it perfectly. Good intentions without belief in the one God, in all three of his persons, gets one only to hell.

This is all well and good but you fail to mention repentance and the sin question which must be addressed by each individual. You can gather a group easily to reach out to God....we are created with a void which only he can fill so turning to God can be preached by any faith...regardless what religion it is..... But if one does not come face to face with their sin and that He died for that....then just believing will not meet God's requirement.

Hopefully Becks “message” of returning to God was indeed taken with the idea of Christian roots.....but those who know Mormonism recognize that Mormonism does not have it's roots in the Christian Christ....rather an impostor.
