1.) There are four "I have a question's" on this page. In that regard, this is an excerpt. Given that the focus of this is on but one of the questions, I did not click "excerpt."
2.) When you go to google or the Google homepage and type in "lds.org" it says "Official site. Online scriptures and library, media contact information, online distribution center,..."
3.) This is at the official LDS site, and at this official LDS website is an Ensign article from June 1986. 25 years old. No decleration here that this is heresy according to the lds church, and 25 years is enough time to have tossed all of the one question as well as the answer "How can Jesus and Lucifer..." given here from that June Ensign issue if LDS considered it heresy or didn't believe in it. It could have been toosed long ago, to leave the other three questions to post to lds.org, so that it never even made it here to lds.org.
4.) Before anyone calls me a bigot, let it be known that I heard no cries of bigotry from conservatives when I talked about the Chicago Sun-Times article " I have a deep faith," a 2004 interview with Barack Obama about his belief that there are many paths to God/Heaven, and what he was asked about the scripture " I am the Way, Truth, Life. No man comes unto the Father but by me." Obama said it all depends upon how you interpret that scripture. I vehemently disagree with that answer. And Jesus supposedly being a brother to Lucifer - I also think that issue must also be explored, and is not believed in by most Christians. 5.) When a certain talk radio host talked about Obama's Black Liberation Theology, and whether he adhered to it, I don't remember conservatives saying that was religious bigotry or shouldn't be brought up for discussion. If that can be talked about, why not this? Why not both?
“Lucifer” means light-bearer or something like that. They used to call old fashioned matches which struck on anything lucifers and the name used to be applied to the planet Venus. I am not aware of any relationship between the planet Venus and Jesus.
Wrong. According to the Bible, Jesus is not a created being but Satan, a fallen angel, is.
What say you?
If conservatives here had no problem with me talking about “I have a deep faith” and Obama’s spiritual beliefs in that news piece (beliefs which I believe to be false) then surely this Mormon belief is acceptable to raise, too, right?
If Talk Radio can opine on Black Liberation Theology ( which I had no problem with them talking about) then why not explore this Mormon theological belief and talk about it, too?
I think the whole question is bogus. I get the feeling the questions to a site like this are setups. They make them up out of whole cloth so they can discuss the issue.
Anybody ever met two brothers that are complete opposites?
The real question is, how can the church teach that they are brothers when the Bible says Satan is a fallen angel, a created being, and Jesus is God with us?
Lucifer is a created being. Jesus is not.
They can't, next question please.
One runs the risk of blood atonement by posting these glimpses behind the curain. I am not sure Mittens wants us to know about this.
As a Christian, all I can say is what complete and utter blasphemy!
Simple: It’s blasphemy to equate the Savior with a liar and created being.
-J.S. (The mormon church is insane).
Jesus and the Father are one in the same “ If you have seen me you have seen the Father “
An attack on true Christian believers.
Jesus was and is GOD.
Lucifer was and is only and angel who failed a test and took a third of the angels with him.
Read Revelation
Thank you for posting this. It speaks volumes about what the LDS really believe vs. their canned ‘testimonies’ outsiders so often hear.
Wow this is crazy Joseph Smith was nothing more than a con artist

A documentary that dives into the differences between legalistic religion and true redemption found in Christ. Produced by Brad Eggerton & James Anderson.
The film was shot all over the Salt Lake Valley from 2009-2011 and includes interviews on the streets with many LDS people, along with many interviews with people who minister to the LDS, including Sandra Tanner, Shawn McCraney, Russ East, Bill McKeever, Doris Hanson, and more.
Jesus is eternal, lucifer was created - nuff said.
The lds-org denies that Jesus is the Creator, that everything was created THROUGH Him, BY Him and FOR Him.
Lucifer can only do what God allows him to do. Nothing else.
