The entity who appeared to Joseph Smith was and is not the Christ of the new testament but an impostor....Joseph Smith was well known to be involved with occult practices, a historical fact, and for doing so left himself wide open to demonic imposter's, influences and deceptions. Even his own family called him looney.....as well as some of his followers called him out on his practices.
Joseph Smiths writing's have been proved false, misleading and deceptive ever since he began... directly oppossing Christianity...as is also known and documented. These facts have been posted many times and yet not one Mormon has been able to debunk these facts.
Almost all Christian Churches do not include Mormonism as Christian....nor will they anytime soon, though the Mormon organization is trying very hard to turn it's membership toward inclusion with Christianity...and they are carrying that tune to any who will hear. But of course most Mormons are tired of being excluded and will say and do anything it's leadership dictates to have that inclusion. We see this playing out on these threads by the 'seasoned' Mormons carrying that banner....but it is not the banner of Jesus Christ they bare.....it is the counterfeit, impostor Christ.
It’s clear what your opinion is, caww.
I don’t want to argue, but I do for the record want to state the position of my church here. My testimony is that Joseph Smith was a prophet called of God.
Best to you,
