Mormons are so different from true Christianity – evangelical Protestantism. Why do they say they are Christian?

Those that support the Mormon religion will value the background basics that the Mormons stand on. They believe in large families and it is a ruling that when a young man reaches the age of 19 years to dedicate two years of his life free of service in order to be a missionary and preach for recruitment of the church. There are many conservative lifestyles that the Mormon live and this is by choice. For anyone that is friends to a Mormon or is in contact with one that will be amused by some of their words! For example such as gosh dammit.

There is no doubt that it is easy for others to be critical of another’s religion. There has been a great controversy over the Mormon religion which is officially known as the Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints. For a young person that is part of the Mormon missionary being in school and being of this it can be quite trying. Most often even those that are closest friends that are non-Mormon cannot understand why someone would want to be involved in such a religion that has such a on Orthodox doctrine.

Almost every religion that has the exchanging of rings and a wedding ceremony has some official way that they follow. This is not the case with the Mormon weddings. In fact there is no exchange of rings at all. There is however many of the Mormon couples that want to and will do so in a ring exchange after the ceremony. Basically it is set up in their own ways for doing this because there is no formal doctrine to be followed to give them any guidance as such in the actual wedding.

Most often when an individual is on the search for a religion that is suited for them they will take a look at different types. One such individual reiterates a story of looking for what felt right for them and in their particular case they came across the Mormon religion and felt that this was their choice. As a result they are very grateful for all that has come out of it being that they are happy and have a good marriage with children. At the same time life hasn’t always been perfect for this particular individual but they still feel very blessed.

It is the custom of a Mormon to simply ask the nonbelievers or the non-Mormon to simply pray about Joseph Smiths message that he delivered when he wrote the book of Mormon which was based on his vision .It is believed that if you will do so that the book will become confirmed by one feeling a burning in their chest as a testament that they have received their word and will realize that this is the true word. The Mormon church upholds the belief that Joseph Smith was put in the position of creating the Book of Mormon. In Josephs vision he was supposedly declared to be the true prophet of God and to start the true church of God and to restore what it was meant to be here on earth. The book of Mormon is the testament or their Bible in support of this. According to the Holy Bible however the true test of a prophet is by the truthfulness of the message that it is received from them and not by prayer

Most likely in the last little while you have had some visitors to your door who are Mormon missionaries. They are very much like the Jehovah Witnesses in going out and spreading the word that they believe in. Most often these will be the young man whose duty it is to go out and recruit new followers. The emphasis of their job is to approach people that aren’t familiar with the Mormons and encourage them to read the book of Mormon. They will testify that this is truly the God inspired word.

It would have to be said that with most religions when a new leader takes over that there are some changes always made. When it comes to the Mormon prophet Gordon Hinckley this is more than true.

For any individual that thinks the Mormon religion is small and insignificant they are very surprised to find out that it is fact the sixth largest religion recognized in the majority of the world particularly in the United States. One thing you will most likely find that at some point in time you’re going to run into a Mormon missionary who is going to talk about their beliefs as they are quite zestful in their recruitment. Most often when people think of the Mormons they automatically linked them to polygamy. It should be remembered in fairness to the Mormons about polygamy in the current day of age is not practiced. That is not to say that perhaps years ago that it didn’t exist. Rumor has it that that particular part of the doctrine was changed when government officials were considering taking action.

There are so many arguments back and forth between the Mormons and Christians as to really what it comes down to is what is true Christianity and who can be classed as Christians. The anti-Mormons will argue that just because the Mormons believe in Jesus does not make them a Christian because even the demons believe in Jesus. The argument will retort right back by the Mormons again that the believe what Christianity is among Christians is that it again does not refer to the same type of Christianity that took place in the New Testament.
