Mormons do you know Jesus?

Question

I know that you believe there is a Jesus, but do you know Him personally. Have you asked Him into your heart. Do you hear His voice (My sheep shall know my voice). I am not asking you to leave your church, just wondering if you have a relationship with Him. Are you born-again, like Jesus said in the Bible. Thank you for your answers.

Can you also explain to me why the missionaries do not teach about being born-again.

Answer 1

As a matter of fact, I do feel like I have a personal relationship with Him. He has helped me through some of my hardest times, and I know that He has forgiven me of my sins as I have repented of them. Of course, I have to repent often, as I am human, but this only strengthens my relationship with him.

Answer 2

Yes I do. The missionaries do not always use the same terminology as others. The bottom line is the same. We probably emphasis the process of being 'born again' in terms of the ordinance of baptism. You have to make a conversion to accepting and following Christ in order to prepare for baptism.

The churches that teach infant baptism mark conversion from the day that the a believer declares his acceptance of Christ.

Answer 3

I have a deep and abiding testimony of the Savior of the World. Through Him I approach the Father everytime I pray...I have tried living my life without the influence of the Savior and the Father---I'll never go back. The "peace that surpasseth all understanding", even is times of trouble, is how I want to live my life. My family receives countless tender mercies from the Spirit daily. The gospel as taught by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has answered so many of the big questions I have---when I studied the gospel it felt so familiar, as if I was coming home. Although I can't fully comprehend the Atonement of the Lord, I have a great belief and testimony that because of Christ, I will be able to stand clean in front of the Father one day. I believe we each have a purpose and that we are here to learn as much as we can before we return. God gave us our free agency so we may choose for ourselves. I choose to live my life striving to learn of Christ and emulate his example, while finding my own strengths and working on my weaknesses as a human being. I am grateful for the whisperings of the Spirit and the joy I get from the scriptures.

Answer 4

im not sure u mean about being born again, unless it's babtism or repentance. missionaries are trying to bring people to repentance and to the church. that clip from youtube is THEE most ridiculus thing ive ever seen. i watched about 2 minutes and didnt find anything truthful, god being a polygamist is the most ridiculus thing ive ever heard. I hear his voice through my leaders and teachers and most importantly the spirit. i know this church is true and i plan to be one of those future missionaries.

Answer 5

I know who Jesus is, I asked him into my heart and I felt His love. I do have a relationship with Him, and I was born again through Him.

Answer 6

Mormons believe they are spiritiually born, they have no idea what the sinner's prayer is, most of them are depressed because when tuff times hit, they are taught that as gods in the making they should be able to pull themselves up with their own bootstraps. Larry the pickle, Mormon Veggie tales:
LARRY THE CUCUMBER: Mormon Veggie tales:
“Ye Must Be Born Again or The Parable of The Pickle”
Elder David A. Bednar
Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
Through faith in Christ, we can be spiritually prepared and cleansed from sin, immersed in and saturated with His gospel, and purified and sealed by the Holy Spirit of Promise…
As an adult I have reflected upon the things I observed in our kitchen during canning season. This morning I want to discuss some of the spiritual lessons we can learn from the process by which a cucumber becomes a pickle. I invite the Holy Ghost to be with us as we consider the significance of those lessons for me and for you as we come unto Christ and are spiritually reborn.
Cucumbers and Pickles
A pickle is a cucumber that has been transformed according to a specific recipe and series of steps. The first steps in the process of changing a cucumber into a pickle are preparing and cleaning. I remember many hours spent on the back porch of my home removing stems from and scrubbing dirt off of the cucumbers we had picked. My mom was very particular about the preparing and cleaning of the cucumbers. She had high standards of cleanliness and always inspected my work to make sure this important task was properly completed.
The next steps in this process of change are immersing and saturating the cucumbers in salt brine for an extended period of time. To prepare the brine, my mom always used a recipe she learned from her mother—a recipe with special ingredients and precise procedures. Cucumbers can only become pickles if they are totally and completely immersed in the brine for the prescribed time period. The curing process gradually alters the composition of the cucumber and produces the transparent appearance and distinctive taste of a pickle. An occasional sprinkle of or dip in the brine cannot produce the necessary transformation. Rather, steady, sustained, and complete immersion is required for the desired change to occur.
The final step in the process requires the sealing of the cured pickles in jars that have been sterilized and purified. The pickles are packed in canning jars, covered with boiling hot brine, and processed in a boiling-water-bath canner. All impurities must be removed from both the pickles and the bottles so the finished product can be protected and preserved. As this procedure is properly followed, the pickles can be stored and enjoyed for a long period of time.
To summarize, a cucumber becomes a pickle as it is prepared and cleaned, immersed in and saturated with salt brine, and sealed in a sterilized container. This procedure requires time and cannot be hurried, and none of the essential steps can be ignored or avoided. …
Preparing and Cleaning
Just as a cucumber must be prepared and cleaned before it can be changed into a pickle, so you and I can be prepared with "the words of faith and of good doctrine" (1 Timothy 4:6) and initially cleansed through the ordinances and covenants administered by the authority of the Aaronic Priesthood.
Immersing and Saturating
Just as a cucumber is transformed into a pickle as it is immersed in and saturated with salt brine… “
The talk goes on for awhile then this:
”My beloved brothers and sisters, I pray this parable of the pickle may help us to evaluate our lives and to better understand the eternal importance of spiritual rebirth. With Alma, "I speak in the energy of my soul" (Alma 5:43).”

Answer 10

The dear Mormon believers have embraced a counterfeit Jesus who is the brother of Lucifer. The Biblical Jesus CREATED Lucifer.

They also believe "as man is, God once was. As God is, man may become." Wasn't Lucifer thrown out of heaven because he wanted to be a god?

Mormons are SO sincere! But they are sincerely wrong.
