I followed your link, Jeff and enjoyed reading your articles and would like to add here to your statement that I too put my trust and faith in Jesus Christ on whom I rely completely for my salvation.

I don’t see the need to get upset if people don’t believe that LDS are followers of Jesus Christ. I know, as you do, that what we as Latter-day Saints believe and teach centers on Jesus of Nazareth and the great sacrifice He made for all mankind.

If a Christian is a believer in, and a follower of Jesus Christ, the Latter-day Saints fully qualify.

Just because you slap the name of Jesus on it doesn't make it Christian anymore than putting a BMW logo makes it a BMW

Your prophets are on record stating that the mormon Jesus is not the same Jesus recognized by Christianity. Mormonism throughout most of its history has vehimently denied being Christian, and consider anyone BUT mormons part of the church of the devil.

Perhaps one day when mormonism repudiates polytheism, progression to godhood, tosses out it add-on scriptures, relies on the cross and not the garden for its atonement - just to name a few, then perhaps the discussion can begin to come to whether mormonism has become Christian or not.
