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.
So we should not take the BOM and other LDS doctrine seriously then.
Good to know, though I think many of us were already aware of that....
However isn't it odd that you would follow a "faith" based on a book that is not to be taken seriously? And getting the name of Christ all caught up in that as well, wow...
(I will spare you the whole "ignorance" matter...)
LDS Plan of Salvation
There are over thirteen million Mormons. The article begins with false information.
Truth does not come by numbers. Muslims, Catholics, Evangelicals, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews all have more than 13M members. Numbers does not make one truer than another.
Secondly, the statement is not dated, so it is entirely possible, even likely that this statement is several years old. The fact that gives a specific number would corroborate that.
Finally, even your 13 million claim is misleading. The LDS church still includes inactive members who do not bother to take their names off the rolls. Several studies have shown, in recent years, that activity of LDS members is only about 50%. The 12 Milllion number includes many who no longer consider themselves LDS.
The active number is closer to 6.5 million, and if half of those live in the US, then it is about 3.25 Million, a fairly small percentage of the population.
By the way, Jesus Christ is my Savior and I love Him with all my heart.
Define Savior. What does He save you from? Not having a body? What do you have to do in order to live with Heavenly Father again? According to LDS doctrine is Jesus enough? Or do you have to do a number of other things as well? Is Jesus Lord of your life, even to the exclusion of membership in any church? Or is he just more of a janitor who cleans up your mistakes, the sins you cant repent of and make up on your own?
I am a Mormon. I wish people would stop posting articles about what they think we believe.
I dont have to go with what I think the LDS believe. Ive been there. Read the book, saw the movie, wore the garments. I KNOW what the LDS teaches. And I now know what the Bible teaches, and the Bible contradicts LDS teachings, every one of them.
And I wish Mormons would be more forthcoming on the meat doctrines rather than just posting nice, meaningless phrases hoping that Christians will assume they mean the same thing. It is the height of deception.
By the way, Jesus Christ is my Savior

OK that tells us plenty...
As for me Jesus is foremost in my thoughts and life...
I am a believer...
The Jesaus ofd the Bible told us to be believers, not mormons...
Christians follow Christ Jesus...
mormons follow Joey Smith and his macaroni angel book of mormon....
I wish mormons would stop lying about Jesus and the Christians...
Mormonism is not Christianity...
And it ends with TRUTH?
IF some info is FALSE; why don't you do the LURKERS a favor and correct it!
Really, many articles posted come straight from lds sources SD, and you cannot handle even those sources.
Ignorance is not bliss.
That is why we keep posting lds sources to the error of lds ways. Step out of the darkness SD and encounter the REAL Jesus.
