This is just one of the "profiles" that is or will be flooding the internet in the effort by the mormon church to build up the brand, Mormons "R" Us, (Oh and BTW we are Christians just like "U".

Note: The heading "I am thrilled and honored to belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I am a devout Christian". The "devout Christian" description is secondary to the LDS membership.

This is all about the "church" or the "faith". Can anyone point me to a mention in this profile of Jesus Christ and His saving grace in any manner except the name of the church? Does "holy writ" translate to the holy Bible..or the books written by Joseph Smith?

It is interesting that Mormons now include references to the Christian Bible, something that they never did in past generations.

I am a devout Christian.

You cannot be both a Mormon and a Christian, moron.

He sounds like a responsible nice guy and good father that provides for his family.

Too bad there’s not more like him.

They are not Christians but Smith cultists. They do not believe Jesus saves all your sins which is why you have to go on a mission for forgiveness.

"Why I am a Mormon"

I would entertain a small bet that (based on the size of their family) you are a Mormon because your parents were. Just a small bet!

Such a terrible man who seems genuinely happy, works with young people, celebrates faith, and focuses on his marriage.

He deserves scorn, indeed.

Interesting lds jesus is second to “church”.
Interesting he is an lds christian because he does stuff.
Interesting he is an lds christian because he felt funny inside and took that to be the lds holy spirit.

"I am a devout Christian."

I dont care what you are, Mormon, Buddhist or Hindu...but you are most certainly not a Christian.

Mormons: Great people in this life. Never met one I didn’t like (though I never met Harry Reid). But may God have mercy on their souls in their eternal “home”.

“the church of Jesus Christ has been restored to the earth with all the attendant teachings, truth, authority, rites, ordinances, and structure”

Nope.

The Church never needed to be restored, so Smith was misguided.

I’ve had some dealings with the Mormons...good dealings, to be sure.

But when you spend enough time with them and get them to open up about what they believe, the Mormons I’ve spoken to will not give sovereign deity to Jesus Christ, he is just one of the gods, and, yes, they believe that there can be or is more than one god.

Maybe it was the Mormons I spoke with, but that just doesn’t hold water for me as a Christian.

Typical propaganda (and that is exactly what it is) to reel people in. And it works, too. I feel for the image. Thank God an ‘anti Mormon’ loved me enough to get me to open my eyes that Mormonism is just a fraud.

The Church has adopted the BSA program as a vehicle for exceptional training and development of youth. I fully support this adoption.

mormons wouldn't allow black boys to hold leadership positions in these bsa 'troops' because they required them to be aaronic priests - which blacks were banned from holding.

I dare say little Jeffy here is grossly ignorant of the facts how mormons use bsa for the training and development of ONLY WHITE AND DELIGHTSOME mormon boys at the time.

So Jeff, that means the reason you have children is so the the Gods can have a body to inhabit?
And that by doing all the things the church says for you to do you can become a god like GOD?

“I am thrilled and honored to belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I am a devout Christian.”

Those two sentences are diametrically opposed to one another.

Worshiping false prophets doesn’t make you a Christian. Men dead or alive NOR whatever church you belong too can bring you salvation and forgive your sins. Only Jesus Christ can do that.

Jeff may be nice to fellow human beings but not to God. The one and only God became human to die for our sins. Jesus the only true God to true God became man. No other so called God did this act. Not one of many gods. No!!

He loved Jeff so much he stretched his arms on a cross for Jeff. If he refuses till his dying day he will not be forgiven.

1 John 4

Testing the Spirits

1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; 3 and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world.
