Yes, they are. They are basing their salvation on the teachings on things other than the Bible. The Bible is the only way to salvation. Also, Catholics,for example, believe that a priest must absolve their sins. If he doesn't/won't they are damned. Mormons base their salvation on works. If they don't follow a list of do's and authority regulations they aren't going to get to the Celestial Kingdom. It's very sad,really. In Acts 2:38-9 it shows us how simple the plan of salvation really is.

No one has their salvation "blocked" when they come to the Biblical Jesus, ask for forgiveness of their sins and ask Him into their lives.
Mormons do not worship the Biblical Jesus, however. Their's is a counterfeit Jesus, a created being and the brother of Lucifer, not the real Jesus of the Bible.
Many Catholics have chosen to be born again into God's kingdom and have asked for and have been given salvation through Christ Jesus.
So your generalization is rather wonky, dear one. You lump those of cults with those of tradition together. It appears you don't know much about world religions.
God bless!

I do not believe the religions you mentioned, but they do believe in Jesus so they are Christian.
2 Corinthians 11:14. Satan transforms himself into an angel of light.
Christian and right are two different subjects.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormonism) is a beautiful Christian religion, and we're not the only ones who think so. A recent poll suggested that even half of white evangelical Christians believe that Mormonism is a Christian religion. The percentage of other denominations that believe Mormons are Christians is likely even higher.

Satan does blind the eyes of many by starting
his own church and directing them from God's
true plan of salvation.

Catholics ARE Christians. So, the answer is no!
Mormon's do not believe in the Trinity. They believe the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are separate Gods. They believe Christ's atonement brought immortality to ALL people, not just those who accept him. Additionally, they believe his sacrifice is only partial and that one must be obedient to all the laws of the Mormon church for salvation.

YOU should work out Your salvation with fear and trembling, and leave the rest to GOD.
Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. - Philippians 2:12,13 KJV
sincerely, a catholic

The Mormons/LDS - Yes, Joseph Smith added/changed who God is.
The Catholics - I would say No. They believe in the God of the Bible. I think they are apart of the "body of Christ".

They all believe in the same God, right? Just different versions. That's like saying that Protestants are going up, while Catholics go down, or whatever...It's so confusing, isn't it?

Those two you mentioned are Christian based faiths.
Just because they may see Christs teachings differently then what YOU personally believe doesnt make them NON Christians.
They both honor and praise Christ and strive to follow his teachings from the Bible,etc.
