We are lost without Jesus.

(Allow me to run that through the Mormon translation machine: You see, the Mormon Jesus atoned for all, and almost all will thereby be resurrected to a degree of salvation, especially after all those proxy baptisms kick in. Hell? Greatly downplayed in Mormonism. Outer darkness gets more play in Mormonism than hell. And when Jesus said wide is the road leading to destruction & narrow the pathway leading to life, well, what does the Jesus of a frowned-upon Bible know to the average Mormon, anyway? So when a Mormon says, "We are lost without Jesus" he usually means that the atonement applied to all; almost all will be saved, anyway, even if they don't trust Him in this life...so a "relationship" with Jesus...what does that matter to Mormon theology? The rituals of the temple will get the Mormon to godhood and the non-Mormon to post-death salvation!).

They would not listen, however, but persisted in their former practices.
Even while these people were worshiping the Lord, they were serving their idols.
To this day their children and grandchildren continue to do as their fathers did.

I agree. But again I will ask the question: How do you worship Jesus as Savior when in reality He is just one of the guys and you will be as He is someday if you follow all the rules. It is a lie of satan that you will be someday be god. .
