They do not crash planes into buildings and kill people in the name of their faith. That is good enough for me.

Very good to hear that from the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod. They know what they’re talking about in regards to Mormonism and its teachings. They are definitely an anti-Christian cult group.

Of course, if one is a Christian, according to what the Scriptures say, then you already knew that the Mormon teachings were cult teachings... :-)

The LDS church stands as a testament to the fact that almost nobody gives a rat’s *** about theology one way or another and is a religious version of something which is too big to fail.

Oh, a disclaimer here, too... (that I forgot). I’m not a Lutheran, but the Lutherans are right about this...

Which church was it again that was ordaining homosexual clergy? (I’ll give you a hint, it starts with “Luth”).

It appears that many denominations don’t follow the Holy Bible.

I really like most of the Mormons I know, and I appreciate their support of scouting and other issues that are important to me. I’m fine with leaving it at that.

Mormonism is an anti-Christian cult that uses many of the same terms as Christianity, but gives them entirely different meanings.
........
same could be said for liberal christianity where the arian heresy has been ascendant for a century or two.

In 1531, Martin Luther nailed his 95 thesis and 2 million Roman Catholics left Holy Mother Church and fell into heresy.

Also, ironically, in 1531, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to Juan Diego, a humble Indian, and 5 million pagans were washed clean with the blood of Jesus Christ and joined Holy Mother Church.

FINAL SCORE: Blessed Virgin Mary 5 million; Martin Luther 2 million. Film at 11.

I say this to you as one who was baptized Lutheran (Missouri Synod) and converted to the one true church of Jesus Christ, the Roman Catholic Church, at Our Lady Queen of Angels, Newport Beach, California at the Easter Vigil in 2002. (My first day of RCIA class was 9/11).

And if you are Missouri Synod Lutheran, you’re probably German and, I have to say, being part German myself, you’re missing the party since the Church has the first German Pope since Victor II in the 11th century.

Look at the outreach that the Vatican has made to Conservative Anglicans and to the Russian Orthodox Church.

Look at the recent high profile conversions: Newt Gingrich, Tony Blair, the shooter of Pope John Paul II., to name just a few.

This is an exciting time to be Roman Catholic!!!

My only hope is that the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod comes to its senses and makes its way home to Rome.

There is no future in Protestant heresy: You either come home to Rome or you go the way of all the sects and substitute the Church of man for the Church of God.

You must have experienced the ‘watering down’ of traditional Lutheran doctrine in your own church since childhood. Doesn’t that concern you?

‘Wide is the path that leads to destruction and narrow is the path which leads to life’.

‘Choose Life’!!

I just came back from Confession at St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Church in Rosemond (just down the street from Edwards AFB) and the church looked so beautiful this evening in anticipation of the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. I hope and pray that Our Lady Queen of Angels will shower you and your family with all of God’s blessings this Christmas season.

Merry Christmas!!

Pray too for the Mormon with whom you are speaking, asking that the Lord would break through the fog of error that clouds his mind ...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Most important is that we pray to God for help in removing the beams in our own eyes so that we can see more clearly.

There are over thirteen million Mormons. The article begins with false information. By the way, Jesus Christ is my Savior and I love Him with all my heart. I thank Heavenly Father for His Plan of Salvation and the Holy Ghost seals this in my heart. I am a Mormon. I wish people would stop posting articles about what they think we believe. Ignorance is not bliss.

“Mormonism rejects the Holy Trinity. The key to the Mormon doctrine of the Trinity is found in the words, “one in purpose but separate in being.” Joseph Smith wrote, “The Father has a body of flesh and bones as tangible as man’s; the Son also; but the Holy Ghost has not a body of flesh and bones, but is a personage of spirit” (D.C., 130:22).”

Compare with the oldest Judeo-Christian prayer:

“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord” (Deuteronomy 6:4).

ONE. “Lord” and “God” are not distinct. ONE.

Ergo, not a valid religion.
