“The “church” consists of the people, not the writers of the Theology = the rules laid out by the church elders.”
The people in a church body are education and should share a common theology. Otherwise what you have is a place to hang out on sunday, like a country club without a bar.
“People are misled in all demoninations, Catholic, Protestant, Baptist, Episcopal and Mormon.”
There is a difference in *who* is doing the misleading. Is any one denomination perfect in Theology or in deeds? no... But Apostate Gospels like that followed by Mormons does not get a pass just because we are all in need of some improvement.
They do not worship the same God, and if you dig about in their theology or history you will see even *they* know that.
This is not meatless firdays, this is not pre trib or post trib discussions.. Heck this is not even election vs free will or tracition vs Sola scriptura. The difference here is the very nature and perfection of God! What would it take for them to *not* be Christian?
I will not judge any persons religion, it just is not my job. Nowhere in the New Testament are we commanded to judge another religion. We are to bring the message...gospel to people, if it is not accepted, we wipe the dirt off of our shoes and move on. Man plants the seeds, God provides the seed (the Word) and causes them to grow. I don’t know how you would approach a Mormon and tell them to repent and believe, when they already believe....rightly or wrongly. There are people on this Earth that have had their eyes and ears sealed shut, to protect them. Mormons may be a part of that group.
