They apparently are drawn to the truth of Christianity, but afraid to walk out of the darkness of Mormonism.

I’m a Momon, and I pay very little attention to the Easter Bunny!

My devotion is to the living Jesus Christ, my Lord and my Savior, the son of the living God the Father. And my goal is to merit and maintain the Holy Ghost in my heart in worship my Father in Heaven. If that’s not enough for you .... so be it, it is enough for my Savior Jesus Christ.

Why would I want to attend another church service and worship a medieval definition of Christ who is ....

....three in one and one in three but never really one but never really three, whos circumference is everywhere, center is nowhere, so large he fills the universe, so small he dwells in hearts and all the while without body, parts or passions..... (need I go on?)

Sorry guys, but the truth and work of our Lord Jesus Christ will continue either with or without your support.

As a former mormon, I have to disagree with that. This is all a big push by mormon leaders to try and convince the religious world that mormonism is Christian..."See, we worship the same Christ in the same way you do. Stop revealing that mormonism's god and jesus are entirely different entities from the God and Jesus of Christianity".

After generations of brainwashing from mormon pulpits and the dictate that they must not attend other churches, members are not conversant enough with Christian worship to be "drawn" to it. They will though, blindly follow the leaders.

The cognitive dissonance they will face in STILL seeing themselves as superior by belonging to "the only true church on the face of the earth" while adopting the practices of Christians will be interesting to follow.

What does it mean that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the only true Church? at LDS.org

"A revelation given to the Prophet Joseph Smith in 1831, soon after the organization of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, spoke of those who had been given “power to lay the foundation of this church.” The Lord then referred to the Church as “the only true and living church upon the face of the whole earth, with which I, the Lord, am well pleased”

It’s kind of Ironic isn’t it ...

Your rejoicing about a LDS members in Utah who attend non-LDS church service (I’ve attended probably 50 in my lifetime)

....while every day another 5,000 to 10,0000 join the LDS church worldwide.

Its as Joseph Smith Prophesied, “....the work of the Lord Jesus Christ has begun and no unhallowed hand will stop it”

PS .... When Jesus prayed to God his Father .... he wasn’t talking to himself, he meant it!
