What are the Key Differences Between Mormonism and Christianity Biola Magazine. Tom. June 2. 5, 2. PMChrists atonement saves ALL humans on this earth from death and hell. We will all live again bcz of his marvelous gift. But Faith with out works is dead. Not only is it biblical but its common sense. The Lord often answers prayers through the service of another. Without works his gospel and plan would be frustrated and pointless. You have to look at the audience Paul was talking to. The Ephesians needed a little help from an apostle to motivate them to love and serve one another. There are places where Paul stresses faith and places where he stresses works. No where in Mormon doctrine does it say we can Work our way to heaven, bcz we cant. You have to consider the whole gospel of Jesus Christ and not bits and pieces of truth or a single passage and try to make a religion look bad or commit yourself to attacking another. Christ showed through his actions that Faith and works are essential to being a Christian and our progression of trying to put off the natural man. Why try to argue a point of doctrine that helps others serve each other. Why dont we argue abortion, birth control and the attacks from the White House on Christianity. Mormons are not the enemy Sean, those that attack them and other Christians are serving some one other than the Savior. Introduction. W hen I refer to the Christian Myth, I mean the fable convenue one hears in church or reads in theological works. The myth may vary to some degree but. Jesse Stay worked for three years as leader of the LDS Churchs social media initiatives. Lds Church Stop Smoking Program' title='Lds Church Stop Smoking Program' />Tiffanie. June 2. PMpretty sure you missed understood every passage that you put in your article. Like every christian we believe in repentance. And if you do sin you can repent and there for be blameless before God. Also you miss understood what Alma was trying to say. He was saying to have faith is to not have a visual sign from heaven, but rather a sign of knowing from God by a feeling of warmth in your bossism. This isnt politics. Also the church doesnt place a large burden on our shoulders. We choose to do what we do in the church and choose to live our lives in a way that we can return home to our Heavenly Father after this life. Also we believe the Book of Mormon to be another testament of Jesus Christ that we use with the Bible. To better explain what Mormons believe I direct you to The Articles of Faith all of them. These are 1. 3 statements clearly explaining what we believe. And to clarify your thoughts of what we think Ao. F 2 stands for is that one man meaning our selves are to blame for our sins, and the Atonement is very much a part of our religion. Jesus suffered for us so that we may repent and be forgiven when we sin. Not for what Adam has done. Also I urge you to go to mormon. That should give you a better idea. Otherwise, sorry to say, your article is not based on fact and is wrong. You are trying to say what we Latter day Saints, Mormons think, and you arent one. So how would you really know. Tiffanie. Darin. June 2. AMwell said Tiffanie,glad to see someone stand and get some of these people straight if they would all take the time to read and pray it would be clear to them all but too many take little pieces from here and there and make it into what they want it to be instead of what it really is ,good job. Joe Vigliatura. June 2. AMInteresting article. Not very factual, but interesting. This is the kind of fodder your average christian uses to feel good about condemning others beliefs. Its too bad we cant all work together for the edification of the body of Christ instead of trying to turn people against higher thoughts and faith. There is a reason the Church had to be restored. This article provides some examples of why. Charles. June 2. 6, 2. AMMore witch hunting I see. Ill bet the paycheck that a Democratic party is behing this to discredit the presidential candidate which happens to be Morman. I am absolutly offended. I would suggest that if someone doesnt understand something then to either learn or keep thier mouth shut. Atleast that is what I teach my five year old. Kenneth J. Griese. June 2. 6, 2. 01. AMYour reasoning is childishly amusing and very nearsighted. Do you also believe the world is flatDid you get your authority to write your opinion from God or from man You have a LONG WAY to go to understand your God. West Granger. June 2. AMTheir are differences but most pastors get most of it wrong. Mormons believe we cannot get to Heaven without the grace of Christ, They believe in following the example of Christ and working to help others to come unto Christ. Perfection is not required as they look to the Savior, Jesus Christ as the only author of our salvation. Faith is not a perfect knowledge. Hebrews 1. 1 Faith is of things not seen. By faith Abraham went out not knowing whither he went. FYI Mormons congregations study the Bible for two years out of every four years. Actual differences are Belief in the Return restoration of the original church of Christ. This includes the trend that lasted from Adam down to John the Baptist was cut off in a Great Apostasy and the Restoration of all things that Jesus spoke about to the Apostles. That means prophets who Jesus chose and ordained are back. Not the same as the protestant idea of pastors on every corner being prophets. The Book of Mormon as a second witness of Jesus Christ. The church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints believe that God is literally the Father of our spiritual beings, we are more than just mere creations. He will always be our Father and will always be our God. Jesus Christs suffering on the cross and in the Garden brought about an atonement that paid the price of original sin. Therefore Christ paid the price of Salvation for unbelieving babies and young children who die. God has a physical body that is glorified and perfected yet his influence is everywhere and he is all knowing, all seeing and omnipotent. There are major differences. The Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost are one in purpose and unity, not a one in three God. They use the Sons prayer to the Father to illustrate this. But faith and grace is pretty much the same as what Mormons believe in most evangelical churches I have attended. Too many clergymen dont correctly represent what Mormons believe. This article is better than most. Renee Whitehead Malae. June 2. 6, 2. 01. AMWhen I clicked like on this article, I was liking Tiffanies explanation. Baixar Canto De Curio Mateiro Gratis more. You go girl Im exhausted listening to the worlds version of my religion. Being Christian, in my simple mind, is simply believing in Christ. I do, so Im Christian. Scott T. June 2. 6, 2. AMFirst of all Mormons are Christian The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and they use the Book of Mormon AND the Bible. This writer obviously didnt know much about what he was talking about like the fact that Mormons believe that Christ redeemed men from the fall of Adam, that he atoned for each and every one of us to overcome natural death, that comment about original sin and that Mormons arent sure why Jesus had to die is bogus. I bet Mr. Mc. Dowell doesnt even understand the Atonement. This man also seems to be faithless and tries to say that the Bible encourages a lack of faith which is a fallacy. One need look only at James 2 2. Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect and Mark 2 5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be aforgiven thee. Jesus garments to be healed as shown in Matthew 9 2.
