I am a Mormon, and I believe that Jesus Christ is my personal savior, and that through his atonement I can have my sins forgiven, and therefore be clean and acceptable to my Father in Heaven.

The Bible Says: “Judge not, that ye be not judged, For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again” Mathew 7:1-2

So taking the above scripture literally: If God finds me an acceptable Christian, yet you sequester God’s Judgment and declare me as a LDS(mormon) a non-Christian .... Then God potentially will boomerang your sequestered judgment by declaring you a Non-Christian?

So Go ahead and join the party!

The only problem with your interpretation is God was talking about folks that are engaged in the same sin...judging those that are committing that sin. Read the whole page..and the context of it.Nothing more nothing less....

You are taking the road...of Liberals when you quote that scripture. They attempt to use that line all the time...IS that what you are falling back on??

Can I ask you a few questions about LDS re: your “take” on Jesus?

Will a believer (Mormon) become a god?

If so, was God (of the bible) once a man?

How many gods would there be eventually?

What is the relationship between Jesus and Satan?

Seems traditional belief is that Jesus is fully God, and fully man, being the “Son”, one member of the Trinity (the tri unity of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit). Also traditionally Satan is a fallen created being (angel).

I have heard it said Jesus has been in Mormon teaching, referred to as the spirit brother of Jesus. This puts him (at some time) in the same plane of existence, which I find not compatible with biblical Christianity.

Can you comment?

-Do you believe that Jesus and God the father are the same?
-Do you believe that Jesus and Satan are spiritual brothers?
-Do you believe that Jesus saves you after you have done all you can do?

-Do you believe Mormon men can become god?

The Bible Says: “Judge not, that ye be not judged, For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again” Mathew 7:1-2

Suggest you keep reading. We are told to guard our doctrine and beware of wolves. Or is that not in the Mormon bible?

So taking the above scripture literally: If God finds me an acceptable Christian, yet you sequester God’s Judgment and declare me as a LDS(mormon) a non-Christian

What makes you so sure God has done that? You deny that the one and only God came to earth and died for your sins. You believe that you can be mostly good and Jesus makes up for your shortcomings. You deny original sin. You believe that in the scheme of things there are many gods.

So Go ahead and join the party!

I had a vision, that all Mormons will be cast into the outer darkness. It is not a party but a concern for those who follow the pagan religion founded by a two-bit huckster.

I want to understand your church’s teaching on Jesus. This book I have says concerning Mormon teaching on Jesus:

“Jesus was once a man who became God. He was only a physical man, not God the Son, while he was on the earth. Jesus was not the result of a spiritual act of the Holy Spirit in Mary’s life. He was the result of Mary and Joseph having sex.”

Is this book accurate or is it incorrect?

Unless you believe that Jesus never had a beginning and never will have an end you do not believe in the Jesus of scripture.

Yet however, Mormonism believes in many gods. This is not the same as the Judeo-Christian belief in Monotheism.
