Moises_Frias: I know it is popular to think that there is no hell. However, that is not a biblical claim.

great question and you are right they all serve a different Jesus and will say they are all the same but only the Christians serve the Jesus of the bible but Mormons serve Jesus who is brother of Satan so that is wrong.
I love the Jesus of the bible and that is the one Christians worship and the cults do not know Him personally.

I don't think it is fair to say that JWs and Mormons don't believe in Jesus. JWs believe that Jehova is God the Father and that Jesus Christ was a great prophet and was the son of Jehova that died for us. Mormons believe that Jehova is Jesus Christ and is the son of God the Father. Some Christians say Mormons aren't Christians based on the fact that they believe that God (as in God the Father), whom they call Elohim, His son Jesus Christ, whom they call Jehova, and the Holy Ghost are three seperate distinct beings, and not one being all called "God" Mormons believe that God the Father and Jesus Christ are physical beings with flesh and bone, while the Holy Ghost does not have a physical body though he does a distinct identity.
It is true that many different Christian faiths accross the country and the world and accross many different cultures all have different variations and overall visions that describe their image and concept of God and of Jesus Christ. A Baptist's belief in Jesus is no less or greater than a Mormon's belief in Jesus Christ.
Non-mormon Christians love Christ according to their faith and culture and beliefs, Mormons love Christ according to their way and JWs according to their way.

As Ms. Lady says, there is only one Jesus.
Despite different beliefs of different sects of Christianity (and yes, JW and LDS are included in Christianity), there is one Jesus.
And to those good christians who are intent on telling others that their faith is "fake" and that the Jesus they believe in isn't the "real one", I have to say, grow up and learn some humility.

There is only one Jesus.
I am Mormon and I worship the one born of the virgin named Mary. The same Jesus that died on the cross for the sins of the world.

i LIKE, PARTS of what jesus brings as an ancient philosopher. i definitely do not a love him since he is someone i never met or really know existed. he brought great advice such as turn the other cheek, but also the "meek and mild" concept of hell (not too happy about that one).

Of course, the only valid answer is Jesus of the Bible.
Of course, merely calling oneself "Christian" is not sufficient to demonstrate true love for Christ.
(Matthew 7:21-23) Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but the one doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens will. Many will say to me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, ...and perform many powerful works in your name?’ And yet then I will confess to them: I never knew you! Get away from me, you workers of lawlessness.
Ironically, the bible most closely associates being "Christian" with preaching about Christ and Christ's teachings. Review all three times the bible uses the term "Christian" and note that the context connects the term with:
"declaring the good news"
'teaching quite a crowd'
'open eyes, turn from dark to light'
"uttering sayings of truth"
"persuade"
"keep on glorifying"
(Acts 11:20-26) [The early disciples of Jesus] began talking to the Greek-speaking people, declaring the good news of the Lord Jesus... and taught quite a crowd, and it was first in Antioch that the disciples were by divine providence called Christians.
(Acts 26:17-28) [Jesus said to Paul] I am sending you, to open their eyes, to turn them from darkness to light and from the authority of Satan to God... Paul said: “I am not going mad, Your Excellency Festus, but I am uttering sayings of truth and of soundness of mind. ...Do you, King Agrippa, believe the Prophets? I know you believe.” But Agrippa said to Paul: “In a short time you would persuade me to become a Christian.”
(1 Peter 4:14-16) If you are being reproached for the name of Christ, you are happy... But if he suffers as a Christian, let him not feel shame, but let him keep on glorifying God in this name
So why do anti-Witnesses try to hijack the term "Christian" and hide its Scriptural implications? Because anti-Witnesses recognize that it is the preaching work that makes it clear that the relatively small religion of Jehovah's Witnesses are by far the most prominent followers of Christ:
(Matthew 28:19,20) Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded
