Your questions leave me baffled. How can there be more than one Jesus Christ? There isn’t. He is the Jesus Christ the Bible speaks of, and there are no others. Period.

Wow! (Did Jesus and the apostle Paul get your "Period" bulletin correcting them?)

Jesus: Jesus answered: "Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ,' and will deceive many." (Matthew 24:4-5)

Apostle Paul: For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted... (2 Cor. 11:4)

I have no clue where you got your ideas on “Mormonism,” but wherever it was, it is totally skewed. There is only one God.

Hmm...

Why didn't the LDS "apostle" McConkie...
...who had the outright audacity to title his LDS "prophet"-approved book, "Mormon Doctrine"...
...not the first version...but subsequent versions...
...get your bulletin about this before he wrote his book or revisions thereof????

How many (true) gods are worshiped according to their LDS apostle's "Mormon Doctrine" 1966 book? (Three according to the Mormon definition of Heavenly Father and Jesus and the Holy Ghost being three separate gods): "Three separate personages--the Father, Son and Holy Ghost--comprise the Godhead...To us, speaking in the proper finite sense, these three are the only gods we worship." (Mormon Doctrine, pp. 567-577, 1966 edition)

Oh, wait a minute. (I should have kept reading). McConkie, on p. 848, only emphasizes worshiping two gods: "The Father and the Son are the objects of all true worship....No one can worship the Father without also worshiping the Son....It is proper to worship the Father, in the name of the Son, and also to worship the Son" (McConkie, Mormon Doctrine, p. 848).

You comments and questions are snide and sarcastic.
If you want the answers, I suggest you hunt for them.
