I accept Jesus Christ as my Savior and Redeemer. There is no need for me to choose between the "LDS" and the "Biblical" Jesus because they are one and the same.

Your list of "differences" simply displays a profound lack of understanding of what we LDS really believe. If you're going to spend time discussing the LDS religion, you should find out what we believe instead of continuing to spread misinformation.

I stated: lds in their articles of faith say the lds accept the Bible as far as it is translated correctly.

You stated that was incorrect.

LDS ARTICLES OF FAITH #8 We believe the Bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly; we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.

I stated: lds jesus - created
You stated that was incorrect.
From lds.org: Jesus Christ is the literal Son of God.

I stated: lds jesus - not sufficient for salvation IE after all we can do.
You stated that was not true.
Articles of Faith: #3 We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.

I stated: lds jesus - paid the price in the garden
You stated it was untrue.
From lds.org child’s coloring book (with a picture of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane). Jesus was praying. He was sad. He began to shake. Blood came out of his skin. All his body hurt. It hurt because he was suffering for the sins of all people. While Jesus suffered and prayed, an angel came to make him stronger. Jesus finished praying. He had bled and suffered for the sins of all people.
D&C 19:16–18

It’s already well understood what Mormonism teaches, so there’s no need to ask around. It’s clear that the attributes assigned to Jesus in the BOM are not the same attributes given in the Bible. Therefore, it’s illogical to state the Mormon Jesus is the same as the Biblical Jesus.

Not according to your recent prophet orem.

"In bearing testimony of Jesus Christ, President Hinckley spoke of those outside the Church who say Latter-day Saints 'do not believe in the traditional Christ.' 'No, I don't. The traditional Christ of whom they speak is not the Christ of whom I speak. For the Christ of whom I speak has been revealed in this the Dispensation of the Fullness of Times. He together with His Father, appeared to the boy Joseph Smith in the year 1820, and when Joseph left the grove that day, he knew more of the nature of God than all the learned ministers of the gospel of the ages.'" (LDS Church News Week ending June 20, 1998, p. 7).

The mormon jesus is not the Biblical Jesus. Perhaps you should be factual in the presentation of lds orem - and not presenting disinformation.

Here is YOUR chance, oremites, to actually DISPLAY what MORMONism 'believes'.

Post away what the TRUTH is, and surely that will overcome our lame attempts at spreading MISINFORMATION.

Clear evidence from Mormon sources prove everything that has been said by the "Inmans" on this thread, people I might add, many of whom lived as dedicated Mormons for many, many years, evidence that you continue to deny. How is it misinformation? Show me, I may believe too, if you can prove from the word of God, whatever point it is that you are trying to make.

Nobody here hates you, regardless of what you believe, I dare say there are people here who are praying for you. Repent now, for you are certainly on the road to perdition now.

SVCW’s summary of the LDS Christ vs. the Biblical Christ is correct. Want me to give sources from your leaders to verify them?

Then why don’t you “correct” that which you allege is misinformation instead of just alleging the poster is engaged in spreading misinformation?
