is that the one that says all white people were angels and black and brown color people were devils? that cartoon cracks me up. it's all BS to me. so NO i don't believe in any God.
No. The Mormon God (despite what they will tell you) is an entirely different creature than the Christian God.
the Mormon God was once a man for Pete's sake. He was born of a father and mother and rose to an ex halted state to become "God". Now tell me how that makes sense?
that all depends on which one? there are two different Mormon based religions. one is the well criticized Miltie wife Mormon and then there is the LDS Mormon, which has complete different out looks on marriage and what you should do. it's too bad that every one calls them the same, it would be like saying the catholic religion is the same as the Jewish religion... i know there not the same but you get my point.
in the end i believe my own religion and neither of these religions.
WHO EVER BELIEVES IN THE MORMON GOD WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE FACTS IS A FOOL. THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD. DO SOME RESEARCH< YOU WILL BE SHOCKED AT WHAT YOU FIND ABOUT THE MORMONS.
Hosea 4:6
my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. ?Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.
What is with you people coming up with "Mormon God" and "Mormon Jesus"? We believe in the same God the Father and the same Jesus Christ you do.
@Cherrita We are Christians whether people admit it or not.
@jay You do lack knowledge. The Bible prophesies of the Book of Mormon in a very detailed manner.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is the only true church on the earth. It was established by Jesus Christ and nothing anyone can do will change that.
3 Nephi 11:14 Arise and come forth unto me, that ye may thrust your hands into my side, and also that ye may feel the prints of the nails in my hands and in my feet, that ye may know that I am the God of Israel, and the God of the whole earth, and have been slain for the sins of the world.
So you're saying you don't believe in the Jesus with nail prints in the hands and feet who is the God of Israel and the whole earth who was slain for the sins of the world?
3 Nephi 15:21And verily I say unto you, that ye are they of whom I said: Other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
You don't believe in the Jesus that said He had sheep "not of this fold"?
3 Nephi 17:7 Have ye any that are sick among you? Bring them hither. Have ye any that are lame, or blind, or halt, or maimed, or leprous, or that are withered, or that are deaf, or that are afflicted in any manner? Bring them hither and I will heal them, for I have compassion upon you; my bowels are filled with mercy.
You don't believe in the Jesus that healed people?
We believe in the Jesus Christ and God the Father of the Bible and Book of Mormon because, as you can see, the Jesus of the Bible is the Jesus of the Book of Mormon and the God the Father of the Bible is the God the Father of the Book of Mormon. Instead of criticizing things, how about actually reading the Book of Mormon.
Which is easier to believe? An everywhere present essence that occasionally masquerades as human in appearance, or an exalted human with a physical body? Why do we have physical bodies, if we are made in the image of God? Why did Jesus resurrect, if the preferred state is essence or spirit? Did he die twice? What exactly did Stephen see, just before they stoned him? Two spirits? A spirit and a resurrected personage? Or two resurrected personages?
As for myself, I find the Mormon version to be far more comprehensible, and closer to the God of scripture, the living God, who has a throne in heaven, and a son who was with him before the foundation of the world, and like us, received an earthly body, and grew from grace to grace.
No man has ever become a god, let alone God Himself, and never will. Christians believe God when He says He is Spirit from Everlasting to Everlasting. Mormons don't. Their Mormon god is a self-made man who turned himself into a god, with a physical body, red dust for blood, who has physical sex with his wife/wives (depending upon the Mormon you ask), and creates spirit babies. How can two physical "gods" have "spirit" babies? ALL creation brings forth its own in every aspect, doesn't it? Animals can't have plants. Plants can't bear humans. Human Mormon "gods" can have.... spirits? And those "spirits" can have "humans"??? What crazy mixed up world did Smith live in, anyway?
The Mormon Jesus is also Lucifer's brother according to them. It would follow that Lucifer is also a god then. Jesus is divine to them. But they say Lucifer is not (nor are spirit babies). In the Bible its stated repeatedly he is an angel, a created being and not divine. Why not Lucifer? They say he was not created by God, because to them God is not the creator of all matter and substance. Directly opposite the Christian's perception. So which one is it??? Can't have your cake and eat it, too!
I believe that God is the father of my spirit. That he loves me and is concerned for me.
I believe that Jesus Christ is God's Son. Both in spirit and in body. That you might say he is heir to the throne, and our God because in order to come to God the Father we must first come unto Jesus Christ. Accept him and keep the commandments. He has earned that right because he has paid for our sins on condition that we repent of them and accept him as our Savior.
So, yes, I believe in the Mormon God, because he IS God.
I'm Mormon. I believe in God. I do not, however, believe there IS a "Mormon God," because there's only one God. He's the same for everyone, even if we don't always agree on every detail about Him.
Joseph Smith was a con man. People paid him money to find treasures. His excuse for not finding treasure was it was guarded by spirits. He was arrested as a "juggler," or "con man." He was brought before a justice of the peace. The judge ascertained that there was enough evidence to try him. This was in Bainbridge, N.Y., in 1826, The judge was Albert Neely. Smith was labeled a "glass looker". The evidence against Smith was sufficient that, if Smith had not left town, he would have been judged guilty. Smith then went on and fabricated the Book of Mormon. He got his idea for the book from Ethan Smith's View of the Hebrews, or "The Tribes of Israel in America".He supposedly used a pair of spectacles to "translate" the plates for the Book of Mormon, friends and relatives said he used the same stone he used in his former money digging scheme.The gold plates never existed according to a witness. An early Mormon convert heard Harris say "I never saw the plates."
Details can be found in "Joseph Smith and the Origins of the Book of Mormon", by David Persuitte.
There has not been found one piece of archaeological evidence to support the story of ancient America found in the Book of Mormon. In the 1950s, the LDS church financed "the largest archaeological project ever funded by a religious institution" It was successful in that it uncovered an enormous amount of archaeological information about ancient America, but as far as providing any evidence for the Book of Mormon, it was a failure. That has not been changed by any subsequent archaeological findings.
In his book, Losing a Lost Tribe: Native Americans, DNA, and the Mormon Church, Simon G. Southerton shows that the American natives show no evidence of Israelite descent, which contradicts what the Book of Mormon says.
Joseph Smith had an eye for women, so he instituted plural marriage and took over 50 wives, some of them the wives of other men.
Mormon doctrine:
God was once a man He has a body of flesh and bone and lives on a planet near the star Kolob. The sun gets its light from the Kolob. God has at least one wife, our "Mother in Heaven," but she is so holy that we are not to discuss her nor pray to her. We can become like God and rule over our own universe. There are many gods. In the highest degree of the celestial kingdom men have more than one wife. A righteous Mormon will see the face of God in the Mormon temple. If a Gentile becomes Mormon, the Holy Ghost actually purges his Gentile blood and replaces it with Israelite blood.
. Jesus was married. Jesus and Satan are brothers, They are our brothers. We are spirit children of Heavenly Father. Jesus was conceived by God by having sex with Mary. We should not pray to Jesus. The "Lord" in the Old Testament is Jesus in the New Testament, but different from "God the Father". Christ will not return to earth in any year that has seen a rainbow.
Before coming to this earth we lived as spirits in a "Prue-existence", in which we were tested. Dark skin is a curse from God, the result of our sin or our ancestors sin. If righteous, a dark-skinned person will become light-skinned. Not only will humans be resurrected to eternal life, but also all animals.
All humans before the Flood lived in the western hemisphere. The Ark transported Noah to the eastern hemisphere. Mormons should avoid traveling on water, Satan rules the waters. You can identify a false angel by the color of his hair, or by offering to shake his hand.
American Indians are "descendants of Lehi", but there is not a hint of the Hebrew language in any of the Indian dialects. The Garden of Eden was in Missouri.The Book of Mormon says that Lehi found horses in America. Horses did not exist in the Americas until the 16Th century. The Book of Mormon says that Nephi had a bow of steel. Jews did not have steel in this time period and iron was not smelted in the Americas until Spaniard arrived. The book of Mormon mentions "swords and cimeters." Scimitars were not around until the rise of Islam (500A.D.) The Book of Mormon mentions silk. This did not exist in the Americas at this time.
In D&C 130:3 it says, "The idea that the Father and the Son dwell in a man's heart is an old sectarian notion, and is false."
Yes, I do with all my heart. I believe that Jesus is the son of God and that he died for us. I believe that we lived with God before this life and that if we lived worthily we'll live with him again. I believe that God loves us all and wants us to come unto him. I believe the Book of Mormon is the word of God as well as the Bible as long as it is translated correctly. I'm so thankful for my Savior Jesus Christ and all that he did for us, and I'm thankful for a God who loves us and wants us to be happy.
Do you believe in the Mormon God?
