Christianity and Mormonism
[/size][/b][/u]
Mormonism is a form a Christianity in the sense that it traces its roots back to the teachings of Christ, and uses the same Old and New Testaments with only slight modifications and additional testaments and teachings. However, its practices are very different from contemporary Protestant and Catholic Christianity. Many Protestant and Catholic sects exclude it from Christianity entirely, and subjected Mormons to a great deal of persecution during the early years of the Church. For an extensive and detailed explanation see the following articles discussing differences and similarities."

 You say your a Christian, then you make statements like that???

 Which is it my confused friend? are you an evolutionist - a Mormon - or a Christian? There is only one truth, pick a side and go with it, get off the fence before your bum gets sore!  Grin

Make up your alleged mind Sibbal!  Tongue

THEY USE "slight modifications" of the bible they have there own bible which isnt a bible and they have changed so many times its redicilous and to have additional testaments and teachings.  Is totally saying that I dont believe that God knows what he's talking about so im going to change this so it agrees with me and since the Bible is God breathed or inspiried. your messing with God's word and also these people are polythesistic because they dont believe in the Trinity they see it as three gods seperate.  And they believe they themselves can be God to.  Also its a matter of there salvation they dont have any.  They are lost.  The world might consider them a sec of Christianity but they are not.  They are one of those groups who are off seperate and think they believe in what believe in but they dont.  And some of those other groups you mentioned Sleeker they aren't Christians either because they dont believe that salvation is permnant and comes from and through Jesus Christ dying on the cross for our sins and raising up again.

I'm both an evolutionist, and a Christian (not of the Mormon sect either).

It's all relative.  You believe they aren't Christians because they are so radical.  They probably believe all the other Christians are extremely conservative who don't want to change.  If another sect of Christianity comes by that's even more radical than Mormonism, they'll think that both Mormonism and the rest of Christianity is really conservative.

WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I went to the link you provided above for the website Wikipedia, which is where you got your quote "Mormonism is based on belief in Jesus as the Messiah."  They are dead wrong, and probably have no clue to what they are really talking about.  Please Sleeker, be very careful as to what you believe.

Messiah is a transliteration of the Hebrew word ‘masiah’, which means “the anointed One.”  The Messiah was more than just a prophet or good man or a son of God (which the Mormons believe), HE IS GOD.  The Jews knew who the Messiah was supposed to be, that He would be God in the flesh, and the Old Testament made this very clear.

As a young teenager, Joseph Smith saw a glorious pillar of light, which after resting upon Joseph became God the Father and Jesus standing next to each other and then they spoke to him.  This is literally impossible according to the root meaning of the word Messiah since Jesus is in fact God the Father.

In other words, those who claim that Jesus is the Messiah yet claim He is anything other than Almighty God, are ignorant of the meaning and significance of who Messiah really is.  Please Sleeker, do your homework before placing any trust or belief in a system of anti-biblical teachings and deceits.
I'm not saying that they are right for doing that.  I'm not condoning it in any way.  I'm just saying they are Christians, but they are extremely radical and have a skewed vision of Jesus.  By the way, Wikipedia is a very good and reliable site.

 They are not Christians...They're Mormons...hello!!?
Christians believe in the Holy Bible - Jesus is God.

 Just because you call yourself a Christian doesn't make it so.
