whats the difference between mormans and christians ????

Answer 1

What Mormons will say they believe about God:

We believe in God the Father who is the Father of Jesus Christ.
We worship God the Father and pray to him in Jesus' name.
Jesus is our Savior.
Why the Mormon God the Father is not the Christian God the Father:
"God the Father" to a Mormon is not God the Father, first Person of the Holy Trinity, whom Christians confess. He is one of many gods.
The Mormon worships God the Father because he is the god of this planet, but other planets have other gods equal to or even greater than God the Father.
The Mormon "God the Father" had a Father and was once a man on a planet who worshipped his own Father God. He was subsequently exalted to godhood. He has a physical, human body.
It is the hope of the male Mormon to progress to the point where he too will be a god like God the Father and be ruling over his own planet.
The Mormons have a saying: "What man is, God once was; what God is, man will become." This is polytheism.
Christian answer:
The God of the Bible is the Creator and God of all the universe, of all worlds, not just our planet. He made the heavens and the earth; there is no other God; there never has been any other God, nor will there ever be another. (Gen. 1.1; Isaiah 43.10; 44.6,8,24)
God the Father was never a man.
You will never be God.
True Christianity, like Judaism, is monotheistic. As our creed states "We believe in one God."

Jesus, Brother of Lucifer

Why the Mormon Jesus is not the Christian Jesus:

The Mormon Jesus is the spirit brother of Lucifer (Satan). They were both born in heaven by God the Father's union with one of his many spirit wives.
According to Mormon teaching, when it was time for Jesus to come down to earth, God the Father sent down one of his spirit wives from heaven to be born as a woman, Mary. Then he came down and had physical, marital relations with her in order for her to give birth to a human body inhabited by Jesus coming from heaven. This is a denial of the Virgin Birth.
Christian answer:
Since God the Father does not have a physical human body, he did not impregnate Mary by a physical union (2 Chronicles 6.18; John 4. 24).
Jesus became incarnate by the power of the Holy Spirit and was born of the Virgin Mary (Mat. 1. 23; Lu. 2.30-35).
God the Father does not have a wife or wives in heaven.
Jesus is the eternally-begotten Son of God, one in being with the Father (John 1. 1-18).
He is not the older brother of Lucifer.
He is the older brother, as well as Lord and God, of those born again by water and Spirit, God's adopted children (John 3.3-17; Rom. 8.14-17,29).
Why the Mormon doctrine of man is not the Christian doctrine of man:
According to Mormonism, all human beings existed as spirit children of God and his wife in heaven before coming to earth.
They grow to spirit "adulthood", serving God (even fighting in heavenly battles), and are then sent to earth to be babies of human parents.
The earthly life is their opportunity to become gods themselves, like their heavenly Father by "obeying the laws of the Gospel" just as the god of this planet once did.
Christian answer:
There is no biblical support for the idea that human beings were spirit children of God in heaven before coming to earth.
Jesus was unique in being a human being with a pre-human existence (John 1.18; 3.13,31; 8.23,58).
Jesus took on human nature at the Incarnation. God became man — not the other way around. His human nature was glorified at his resurrection.
We will be like God in that we will have the same kind of glorified human nature which Jesus possesses, not in becoming gods and ruling planets ourselves (1 John 3.3; Rom. 8.22, Phil. 3.20-21).
While heaven is the presence of God with unfettered communion, the distinction between God and creatures remains (Rev. 5.13,14).

Challenging Mormons

What Mormons will say they believe about salvation:

All are redeemed by the Savior's self-sacrifice, from the consequences of the fall.
Immortality comes as a free gift, by the grace of God alone, without works.
Jesus is our Savior.
Why Mormon salvation is not Christian salvation:
According to Mormonism, everyone and everything — all of creation — has been redeemed and therefore "saved".
His salvation gains, for all human beings, a physical resurrection only — not eternal life. Eternal life is not "salvation"; it is "exaltation".
If you ask a Mormon if he is saved (per Evangelical parlance), he will answer yes.
If you ask him if he believes you are saved, he will answer yes. This confuses Christians who do not understand that being "saved" and gaining "eternal life" are not the same thing in Mormon thinking.
It is further confused by the Mormon distinction between "immortality" (salvation to physical resurrection) and "eternal life" (exaltation to godhood).
The Mormons have a saying: "Salvation without exaltation is damnation."
Therefore, a Mormon can, with a straight face, tell you he believes you are "saved", while he also believes you are damned.
Christian answer:
We define salvation according to what we are saved from. We are saved from sin and from the wages of sin — death.
To be saved from sin is to be justified and sanctified. To be saved from death is to receive eternal life (Rom. 6. 22, 23).
Being saved, justified, sanctified and given eternal life by the grace of God are all things which are interconnected in the scriptures. There is no biblical basis for separating them (Rom. 5th).
Seeking exaltation is contrary to the spirit of Christ. We are rather to humble ourselves, recognize our sinfulness and call upon the Lord for mercy and forgiveness (James 4. 6-10).
Why the Mormon hope is not the Christian hope:
It is the hope of the male Mormon to progress to the point where he will be a god like God the Father and be ruling over his own planet. This is "exaltation", and depends upon the Mormon "Plan of Eternal Progression".
The hope of Mormon females depends upon their being married, in a temple ceremony, to a Mormon male who achieves exaltation.
Mormon women married to non-Mormons ("Gentiles") can arrange for a "temple sealing" (marriage by proxy) to a Mormon male after their death. This is to assure that in eternity they are considered to have been married to and produced their children from a Mormon husband so that they and their children can be exalted.
Mormon males expect to produce offspring in heaven with their mate(s), offspring who will subsequently be sent to populate their planet and achieve their own exaltation to godhood and so on and so on …
Christian answer:
The God of the Bible is the Creator and God of all the universe, of all worlds, not just our planet. He made man for Himself and in His image to be in communion with God and enter into the love of the Holy Trinity.
When man fell into sin and marred the image of God in his own being, the second person of the Trinity became incarnate — taking human nature to Himself.
He then did what He could not do in the form of God — He died to save us from sin and death, so that we could come back into communion with God and share the love of the Holy Trinity. Our hope is to be with God, not to be God (Gen. 1st-3rd; Phil. 2. 5-11).


I hope this helps....If you have any Q's on LDS...just list them..I'll answer them for you

Answer 2

Whoa!
Mormons present themselves as Christians but their beliefs are fundamentally different from Christianity in core areas.
They do not believe that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit, but was born of a man and a woman like you and I. This denies his deity.
They also believe that through works that they can attain being a "god" ( note small "g"). Christians know that that God is God and we are not, and being a god is not something to aspire to.
They also believe that marriages are eternal. Sorry, no where is that promised - you can only make a decision for Christ yourself, alone and you die alone according to the Bible.
They say that Christ visited North America before it was settled by Europeans - whatever - this is not a major issue but why would he do that? On the cross he said"it is finished" - meaning his mission on earth was finished.
They have also edited the "Bible" to fit these things. You don't do that. They have arguments around things but there is no question that there beliefs constitute a cult.
Only God can judge but I would get nowhere near it.

Answer 7

Mormons are Christians. They belong to the Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter Day Saints.

The Articles of Faith of the Church are:

1 We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.
2 We believe that men will be punished for their bown sins, and not for Adam’s transgression.
3 We believe that through the Atonement of Christ, all mankind may be saved, by obedience to the laws and ordinances of the Gospel.
4 We believe that the first principles and ordinances of the Gospel are: first, Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ; second, Repentance; third, Baptism by eimmersion for the remission of sins; fourth, Laying on of hands for the gift of the Holy Ghost.
5 We believe that a man must be called of God, by prophecy, and by the laying on of hands by those who are in authority, to preach the Gospel and administer in the ordinances thereof.
6 We believe in the same organization that existed in the Primitive Church, namely, apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, and so forth.
7 We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.
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.
9 We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.
10 We believe in the literal agathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory.
11 We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may.
12 We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in obeying, honoring, and sustaining the law.
13 We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul—We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.

Are mormons different than other denominations. Yes. Lutherans are not the same as Catholics. Orthodox differ from Baptist.
