It seems this way from some perspectives, but I believe George Washington was saved! and he was a Freemason.

True ignorance appears to be different than diregarded truth. However, His hand is obvious thru-out creation, so none can freely claim ignorance to His existance. That is why so many seek, so many directions, to cover that missing relationship.

Those raised in belief, may never have truly sought. Seek with all your heart and you shall find. A luke warm heart will be spewed out. Don’t settling for mere traditions of men, those which condradict His whole word.

One more set:
There are no Baptists in heaven.
There are no Mormons, ChurchOfChrist, Catholics...
There is just one people, with one Father. Get there!
Be part of a gathering which teaches His word rather than church doctrine.

It is written (paraphrased):
Come out of her, my people. Return onto my ways, my walk, my times.

Not when dealing with Mormons and a personal relationship with Christ. I USED TO BE MORMON (see tagline). Not only is a personal relationship with Christ not taught, it is taught AGAINST.

When I was LDS, we used to make fun of Evangelicals who thought they could have a personal relationship with Christ. I’m not talking about 3 or 4 LDS friends, EVERYONE I knew (hundreds) in all my wards, all over BYU, every Mormon I knew thought it was stupid and an insult to God to claim we could have Christ in our hearts, be saved through faith, and have a personal relationship.

Mormons also believe in a COMPLETELY different Christ than Christians do and they are not compatible at all.

So, I not only stand by my statement that is IMPOSSIBLE to have a personal relationship with Christ and remain a Mormon, I suggest you do some research into what the LDS really teach.

I have also pinged some other former Mormons who will tell you the same thing.

FWIW, I was a convert to Mormonism, not raised in it. You are correct they do not seek, or they seek after a false Christ, not the Jesus of the Bible. Thank God, He saved me and saved me from the cult of Mormonism.
