First of all Mormons are Christians. Their religion satisfies the foundation of Christianity like any other.
1. That Jesus was our savior and died for our sins. There is now route to heaven except through him.
2. Baptism.
3. That the people must repent their sins and ask for forgiveness.
That being said there are 2 types of Christianity. Yes only 2 not more and no less.
Type 1: Catholicism
Type 2: Protestism.
Therefore Mormons are Protestants. Simple. Problem solved.
In fact I believe that Mormons (I’m not for sure) but I believe they self identify as Protestant.
No Christian church agrees with you, they all agree that Mormonism is not Christian, the Protestants, the Catholic church, the Greek Orthodox, all agree on that.
Wow, what a pant-load.
Research the word Protestant and you will find it breaks down to two roots.
1. Pro
2. Teste
Together it meant to testify for, and in this case it means to testify for Christ, not Mary.
You couldn't be more wrong, Mormons do not testify for Christ.
“First of all Mormons are Christians. Their religion satisfies the foundation of Christianity like any other.
1. That Jesus was our savior and died for our sins. There is now route to heaven except through him.”
Mormons believe that Jesus died to satisfy original sin, that there are sins which cannot be forgiven or satisfied by Christ’s sacrifice and that one must pull oneself up from the boot straps in order to attain godhood. The Mormons do not believe that Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven. They believe in multiple levels of heaven which you go to depending on how bad you were. They baptize people after death so they can have a chance to go to one of these lesser heavens. They do have a “outer darkness,” their version of hell, but even that is not permanent and it is possible for people to work their way back up. Of course, only the faithful Mormon during life is able to enter the Celestial heaven, the highest level, where “eternal life” is defined by the Mormon as meaning “godhood,” and an eternal progression into higher and higher forms of godliness. For example, having your own planet, mass producing your own spirit children, and receiving worship.

“2. Baptism.
Mormons believe they have the one and true Baptism under the assertion that Joseph Smith sits on the right hand of God and not Christ. This is why they are called a religious cult and not a Christian religion.
Except you have to work for it, sorry that's not Christianity.
Then there is the part about the LDS Jesus being created and not eternal, and being so insufficient that there are extra steps to the LDS belief system.
Oh, and the part about the LDS God once being a man who worked his way to godhood.
Oh, or the part about baptizing dead people so you can get your planet and become your own god.
Oh, and how celestial marriage, that builds up the planet population as well.
Mormonism is not Christianity anymore than sitting on the kitchen counter and calling yourself a toaster makes it so. My Mormon family identifies themselves as Mormon.
Mormons do not identify themselves as Protestant - not at all. They profess all of Christianity to be corrupt. They are restorationists.
Official doctrine of the Catholic Church DOES NOT RECOGNIZE Mormans as Christian. They do not believe in the Trinity.
The Catholic Church does not recognize the baptism of any Morman as being a valid Christian baptism.
Mormanism is a cult. End of Story.

Mormons are not Christian. It’s a crazy sect. They deny
a required basic that can’t be denied. They reject the
Holy Trinity. Mormons deny Jesus is God, Our Lord always was and always will be. Mormon baptism is not valid, you must baptize in the name of the Trinity. And for Heaven’s
sake...think...Mormonism was begun in the 1820s, a big hint.

“I call you all to be loyal to Me especially you My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters living in every part of the world. When I was on earth I was loyal to My Heavenly Father every day of My life on earth. I came to do His will. You too should have the same reason wanting to follow My will every day.
There are some people these days that are teaching falsehood but saying that it comes from Me. Only My church can teach the true Gospel, which I brought into the world. There will only be the one Gospel and this is what you are to follow with all your heart. St. Paul in his earlier days was a persecutor of My Church. He wanted to destroy the Church I had founded on the Apostles. At the end I woke him up and he was converted. He came to believe in Me and he followed the true Gospel all the years after that until his death as a martyr in Rome. Do not listen to such people as those who belong to New Age or THE CHURCH OF THE LATTER DAY SAINTS. THERE IS NO TRUTH IN WHAT THEY TEACH. I am your Brother who is calling you and who is ready to help you in this life and bring you home to heaven one day.”
