Sorry Greyfoxx39, I am active LDS, and I worship God the Father through his Son Jesus Christ.

I believe that Jesus Christ is the Savior of all mankind, that solely by him, through him and because of him mankind can be saved from eternal damnation, and without him mankind is destined for that very damnation.

If this belief system somehow sounds unchristian to you .... I’m sorry, but not my problem.

Frankly, I could care less about what your or mainstream christianity’s opinion of my religious beliefs are. I only care about what God the Father and his Son, Jesus Christs opinion of my beliefs are. I have had many sacred experiences through my life where the Lord has shown me through the Holy Ghost that my beliefs and service are acceptable to him.

Undoubtedly you will contest that I have been inspired by Satan rather than the Holy Ghost. The problem with that is the nature of my experiences.

Invariably, these affirmating experiences with the Holy Ghost have been accompanied with an incredible inner peace and spiritual confidence which starts with love of God and branches out to love of family, love of neighbor, extending to love of mankind, eventually encompassing the entire world. The Holy Ghost commonly uses this manner of spiritual affirmation, as it is a small window into the total and complete love which God the Father, and his Son Jesus Christ have for all of mankind.

Satan is incapable of duplicating this experience, his comparable affirmation is centered in self-righteousness and dominance through unrighteous dominion. Of which, sadly, Christian history is extremely rich with.

I see you are following the mormon custom of trashing Christianity, AND following the mormon tradition of "if you can't disprove someone's point, just bear your testimony".

Mormonism's goal is dominance over the entire world.

“The Almighty has established this kingdom with order and laws and every thing pertaining thereto…[so] that when the nations shall be convulsed, we may stand forth as saviours…and finally redeem a ruined world, not only in a religious but in a political point of view.” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 9, p. 342, April 13, 1862)

While I believe that Mormons are good, moral people - your theology is in error in some areas. Do you believe that Jesus Christ and Satan are brothers? What do you believe about the blood of Christ shed on the cross for the remission of sins? There are distinct differences between Mormon teaching and Christianity. Another example is that Mormons believe that if a spouse dies - then they will be reunited in heaven. This is in error because Jesus said that we will neither marry or be given in marriage in heaven.

You sound sincere in what you believe, however, you can also be sincerely wrong in those beliefs.
