Delph We have one God

B.S. The LDS have THREE ‘gods’ who are one only in purpose (with two physical bodies).

Depends on your definition of oneness now doesn't it. The Trinity looks pretty silly to most Buddhists I talked to, any who had had it explained to them by an "Orthodox Christian" wold start out by asking questions about that. You're just used to that particular man made Dogma from 325 AD.

In addition, their leaders have taught that there are millions of gods out there and that they can become Gods themselves.

Actually, you spend far more time on that on FR than I ever have in church, but if you believe Man can be deified, as the Bible teaches, then you have to accept that there are gods besides God our Father, we just don't worship them or have anything to do with them.

So to say that you believe in only ONE God is intentionally misleading. Maybe only one God ‘for this world’, or only one God in purpose, but not as the Bible teaches it.

It is exactly as the Bible teaches it. Try reading John 17 first read the part I've marked, Jesus himself draws a simile between his and God's oneness adn the oneness the disciples are supposed to have, then go back and read the whole chapter to make sure i'm not taking it out of context. You'll never read the Bible the same way again once you understand God the Father and Jesus Christ better.

And the only ‘salvation’ by grace is resurrection. Exaltation (Heaven to Christians) REQUIRES WORKS. Works to the LDS are required not just a sign of faith. For Christians, works are what we do when we have already been saved, not to get there, but for the LDS they are needed (including secret handshakes) to get back to God. That is not salvation by grace at all.

Just for the record, believing in Christ is a work. You literally have no knowledge of our actual beliefs, try reading James 2:14-26 what we believe is Biblical, true gospel.

Want sources/quotes Delph? I can provide them.

Thanks, I've seen them, have you sen what I am quoting? Afraid to look? If you don't want to read from LDS.org, fine, get a KJV bible and look it up, it's the same.

Delph

Biblical not a man made doctrine. Sorry to burst your bubble. And ONE God means ONE God, not 3 gods united in purpose. You sound like Clinton.

And God does not teach man can become Gods that is a lie from Satan.

“Just for the record, believing in Christ is a work”

It is a work of GOD, not a work of us. If you stick your hand out to receive a gift, did you earn it? Is it a work? No. (John 6:29).

And I know much more about Mormonism than you ever will. And I know more about the Bible than you do as well, that is obvious.

I love how the LDS keep taking James out of context and ignore the rest of the New Testament. They manipulate the Bible and twist scripture for their own ends THEN TURN AROUND AND SAY IT IS CORRUPT!

BTW, I am never afraid of anything Mormon, Satan no longer has power over me.

Depends on your definition of oneness now doesn't it.

Well; a TRUE Mormon would accept what the leaders OVER him have stated; wouldn't he???

PD; you have got some EXCELLANT web links!

I'm SO glad you've posted them!!!

Godhead

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) believe, as do other Christians, in one Supreme Being who governs the universe, and who is all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-loving. However, Mormons don't believe that He works alone but as the presiding member of what they call the godhead.

The Bible dictionary says that God is “The Supreme Governor of the universe and the Father of mankind. We learn from the revelations that have been given that there are three separate persons in the Godhead: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. From latter-day revelation we learn that the Father and the Son have tangible bodies of flesh and bone, and that the Holy Ghost is a personage of spirit without flesh and bone (Doctrine and Covenants 130:22-23).”

Mormons believe that these three gods—”separate in personality {but}. . . united as one in purpose, in plan, and in all the attributes of perfection” (Mormon Doctrine, p. 317)—are the partnership which rules the universe, with God the Eternal Father the controlling and governing power. LDS Apostle James E. Talmage states it this way: “These constitute the Holy Trinity, comprising three physically separate and distinct individuals, who together constitute the presiding council of the heavens” (Jesus the Christ, p. 32).

This belief is distinct from the traditional Christian doctrine of the Trinity, which generally maintains that they are three persons but one in essence. All three members of the Godhead are eternal and equally divine, but play somewhat different roles.
