How was Jesus
born?
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
is the literal son of god and his goddess wife. He was born through physical
sexual relations with Mary. Brigham Young taught that Jesus was not born
with any involvement of the Holy Spirit.
According to the Bible, Jesus is not
the literal son of god and his goddess wife. He was not born through sexual
relations. Mary was a virgin was Jesus was born. There is no such thing as a
goddess wife. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit (Matthew 1:20).
Where was Jesus
born? Of what tribe?
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
was born in Jerusalem (Book of Mormon, Alma 7:9,10) and is of the Tribe of
Benjamin. The city of Jerusalem (Jebusi) belonged to the tribe of Benjamin
(Joshua 18:21-28).
According to the Bible, Jesus was
born in Bethlehem, of the Davidic, kingly line of Judah (Matthew 2:1,
Hebrews 7:14). Jesus is the Lion of the Tribe of Judah (Revelation 5:5).
Jesus is a descendant of David, a Bethlehemite (Matthew 1:6, 1 Samuel 16:1).
Several other verses refer to Jesus as "Son of David" (Matthew 15:22; 21:9;
Mark 10:47). The line of King was through the Tribe of Judah and not
Benjamin (Genesis 49:9-10).
Spirit brothers
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
is the brother of all spirits born in heaven. He is also the spirit brother
of Lucifer.
According to the Bible, Jesus is not
the brother of all spirits born in heaven and he is not the spirit brother
of Lucifer. Lucifer is an angel created by Jesus (who created all angels).
Lucifer rebelled against God. Only those that do the will of the Father are
considered spiritual brothers and sisters of Jesus (Mark 3:35). Jesus even
told some Jews that their spiritual father was the devil (John 8:44).
Earthly marriage
and celestial marriage
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
was married and had wives. Thus, in Heaven, Jesus will continue to be
married to his wives forever.
According to the Bible, Jesus was not
married and did not have wives. Jesus said there is no celestial marriage.
"For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but
are as the angels of God in heaven" (Matthew 22:30).
Polygamy
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
was a polygamist (Journal of Discourses, Volume 4, page 259).
According to the Bible, Jesus was not
married and did not have wives.
The Godhead
In Mormon theology, in the "Teachings
of the Prophet Joseph Smith p. 370", Joseph Smith taught that God the
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit exist as 3 gods. The Trinity is three separate
gods.
According to the Bible, Jesus is not
one of 3 gods in the godhead. The Trinity is 3 persons in one God. Jesus is
God. There is only 1 God, but many false gods.
The Nature of God
According to Mormon theology, in
Doctrines and Covenants 130:22, "The Father has a body of flesh and
bones as tangible as man's; the Son also". According to Doctrines
and Covenants section 93, man was co-eternal with God in the beginning. In
1844, Joseph Smith began teaching that the Book of Abraham teaches that God
is but one link in an infinite ancestral chain of Gods stretching back
through eternity. God is only one of innumerable Gods. The Church believes
that humans are the literal offspring of God and one of his celestial wives,
and because of this we all have the potential to achieve exaltation to
divine status. Smith taught beginning in 1844 that God had a literal father,
and that father had a literal father, and so on. Mormons also teach that we
existed in heaven with God (our literal Father) as spirits before we became
human.
According to the Bible, Jesus teaches
us that God is a spirit. Man was not co-eternal with God. Jesus created man.
God did not procreate with celestial wives.
The Existence of
Jesus
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
had a beginning. Jesus was a created being.
According to the Bible, Jesus did not
have a beginning. Jesus is the Eternal God.
Atonement for Sin
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
atoned for sin on the cross and in the garden of Gethsemane. Jesus'
sacrifice was not able to cleanse us from all our sins, Journal of
Discourses, Vol. 3, p. 247, 1856.
According to the Bible, Jesus atoned
for sin on the cross alone. His atoning death on the cross was able to
cleanse all sins.
Plan of Salvation
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
offered a plan of salvation in addition to the one offered by Lucifer. Also,
there is no salvation without accepting Joseph Smith as a prophet of God,
Doctrines of Salvation, Vol. 1, p. 188.
According to the Bible, Jesus is the
only plan for salvation. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. This is
no salvation in any other name
Where will Jesus
return?
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
is expected to return to a future temple in Missouri.
According to the Bible, Jesus will
return to the Jerusalem in Israel (Zechariah 14:4).
Garden of
Gethsemane
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
sweat blood in the Garden of Gethsemane.
According to the Bible, Jesus did not
sweat blood in the Garden of Gethsemane. "And being in an agony he prayed
more earnestly, and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling
down to the ground" (Luke 22:44).
Passover
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
did not mention the Passover.
According to the Bible, Jesus
mentioned the Passover to his disciples.
Period of darkness
According to Mormon theology, when
Jesus died darkness covered the land for three days (Nephi 8:19, 23).
According to the Bible, when Jesus
died darkness covered the land for three hours (Luke 23:44).
Where did Jesus
preach the Gospel?
According to Mormon theology, Jesus
came to the United States to preach the gospel.
According to the Bible, Jesus did not
go to the United States or any other country after his resurrection to
preach the gospel for that matter. He told his disciples to go to the ends
of the earth and preach the gospel. This is called the Great Commission
(Mark 16:15).
The Church of
Christ
In Mormon theology, Jesus' church
ceased to exist and Joseph Smith came to restore it.
According to the Bible, Jesus built
his Church and it would exist for all time (Matthew 16:18).
Praying to and
worshipping Jesus
In Mormon temples, Jesus is not
worshipped and is not called God. Mormons do not call Jesus their Lord and
God. Mormons never address prayer to Jesus Christ. Prayers are made in His
name, but only addressed to the "Heavenly Father". They do not go through
Christ.
According to the Bible, Jesus Bible
is prayed to (Acts 7:55-60; Rom. 10:13; Zech 13:9 with 1 Cor. 1:1-2), is
worshiped (Matt. 2:2,11; 14:33; 28:9; John 9:35-38; Heb. 1:6), and is called
God (John 20:28; Heb. 1:8). Jesus allowed Thomas to address Him as "My Lord
and my God" in John 20:28. In Isaiah 9:6, He is called "The mighty God" and
"The everlasting Father," and we read in Micah 5:2 that Jesus is "from
everlasting." Christians go through Christ because Jesus is the only
mediator between God and man.
The Testament of
Jesus Christ
In Mormon theology, Jesus gave a
second New Testament (or Covenant). The Book of Mormon is said to be another
Testament of Jesus Christ.
According to the Bible, Jesus only
gave ONE New Testament (or Covenant). See Matthew 26:28, Mark 14:24, and
Luke 22:20.
If you put your faith in a Jesus that
is false, then your faith is useless.
The True Salvation
Mormons believe that one's salvation
is based on such good works as baptism, good deeds, missionary work, and
following Mormon teachings. In The Articles of Faith, by James Talmage,
justification by faith in Jesus Christ is called a "pernicious doctrine"
twice and he states that it has been "an influence for evil." (pp. 107, 480)
Bruce McConkie once stated at Brigham Young University that a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ is "improper and perilous" (Church News,
March 20, 1982, p. 5)
Ephesians 2:8-9 says, "For by grace
are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of
God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." Romans 4:5 says that
salvation comes to those who do not work for salvation, but believe on Jesus
Christ instead!
Jesus Christ came into this world to
lay down His sinless life for YOU--to pay for your sins because you
couldn't. Jesus is your only hope for salvation. Only by receiving Him as
your Saviour can you enter the gates of Heaven. There is no other way.
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh
unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6) "Neither is there salvation in any
other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we
must be saved." (Acts 4:12)
The Lord Jesus Christ has come and
PAID for your sins by shedding His own Blood on Calvary. By receiving Him as
your Saviour, you can be WASHED from all your sins in His precious Blood
(Rev. 1:5; Col. 1:14; Acts 20:28; I Pet. 1:18-19). Notice these important
words from Romans 5:8-9: "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that,
while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now
justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him."
Jesus PAID your way to Heaven! Your
church cannot save you! Only by receiving Jesus Christ as your Saviour can
you escape the damnation of Hell. Are you willing to forsake YOUR
righteousness and receive Jesus Christ as your Saviour, your ONLY HOPE for
Salvation? Romans 10:13 says, "Whosoever shall call upon the name of the
Lord shall be saved." Romans 10:9 says, "That if thou shalt confess with thy
mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised
him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." Why not pray right now and ask the
Lord to come into your heart and cleanse you from all sin? He will save you
just as He promised.

Mormonism Is A
Secretive Satanic Cult!
Here's a video showing how insane Mormon cult
beliefs are. One child of gay lesbians parents was holding a protest sign
saying, “My two moms can beat up your 14 wives!” Who can deny that the world
has gone insane?
One theme that is commonly repeated in this
brief documentary video is secrecy. The Mormon Church refused to allow free
video-taping within their new temple in Utah. It's the 129th Mormon temple
in the world. What are they hiding? The handshake ceremonies are secret and
the Mormon elders won't talk about them. Why the secrecy? The temple
contains hidden rooms which are kept highly secret.
“The Celestial Room” is all white, and Mormons
must all wear white robes and clothing.
Couples are married in “The Ceiling Room,”
bound together along with their children for eternity. Mormons are taught
that “the family is the root to eternal salvation” (4:47 in the video below
by NBC News).
Mormon elders are demonic, baptizing people for
THE DEAD, which they claim gives the dead a second chance to convert to
Mormonism in eternity. The family is the core of their faith, that the
family unit is together forever (4:39 in the video below by NBC News).
The public isn't allowed to videotape freely
within Mormon temples. What are they hiding? Jesus plainly stated in John
18:20, “Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in
the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in
secret have I said nothing.” There are NO secrets in Christianity. Why
does Mormonism have so many secrets?
In Mormon temples they have “Ordinance Rooms,”
where members are “given the keys that will allow them to enter Heaven,
including secret handshakes” (6:03 in the video below by NBC News). Folks,
this is demonic as can be! There are NO SECRETS in Christianity!
Just as the Seventh Day
Adventist religious cult pretends to be Christian, so also do Mormons
pretend. Mormons masquerade as being true Christians, by hiding their
satanic core doctrines behind basic Christian principles. Literally, they
are hiding a lie between two truths to deceive the public (a common tactic
of deception that Satan uses in religion, politics and the newsmedia).
