Gee, thanks for uniting in Christ. This thread was a real blessing.

huldah1776,

Unity in Christ is something that IS important. However which Christ are you seeking unity with? You better be looking to the true Christ, the one that died for your sins once for all, and who is God, and is to be the Lord of your life. Does the Mormon Church have the true Christ? Is Christ the spirit brother of Lucifer? Does the cross only pay for some sins, the others you must work to have washed clean (some sins by your own filthy blood?)

Mormons are nice hard-working family-oriented people. And if you want to show the love of Christ to them, you must be willing to share the true Gospel even if it annoys them. For otherwise they face unending torment in the end. If not, you are just willing to let them follow their false gospel and false teachers into hell, and that is not showing any love at all.

Do not fall prey to those that say “We worship the same Christ” without testing their doctrines. By this standard the Watchtower Bible Tract people are also brothers in Christ, something at least old-time Mormons would vehemently deny.

Cling to the only and true God and read the word that He graciously inspired for us to guide us. Anything that strays is false, and you must jealously avoid that which is not His.

Mark 13
21”And then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ’; or, ‘Behold, He is there’; do not believe him; 22for false Christs and false prophets will arise, and will show signs and wonders, in order to lead astray, if possible, the elect. 23”But take heed; behold, I have told you everything in advance.

2 Peter 2
1But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves.2Many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of the truth will be maligned; 3and in their greed they will exploit you with false words; their judgment from long ago is not idle, and their destruction is not asleep.

Deuteronomy 13
1”If a prophet or a dreamer of dreams arises among you and gives you a sign or a wonder, 2 and the sign or the wonder comes true, concerning which he spoke to you, saying, ‘Let us go after other gods (whom you have not known) and let us serve them,’3 you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams; for the LORD your God is testing you to find out if you love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.4”You shall follow the LORD your God and fear Him; and you shall keep His commandments, listen to His voice, serve Him, and cling to Him.
