I simply wish to bear my testimony that "Mormons" are in fact Christians. That we believe in the same Christ that all other sects claim as the Messiah. We testify of His divine mission every chance we get. He is the founder and head of our church, he is the light that guides our members in times of darkness and light. I have a personal relationship with Him, and know that the purpose of the Atonement was not simply to absolve the penitent sinner, but to provide each and every member of the human race with the means to return to live with God and Jesus Christ. Each of us grows up to look like and be like our parents, and our Heavenly Father has provided a way for each of us to grow up to be JUST like Him. The Atonement provides the way for each of us to become perfect like Him. Why would God want it any other way? Why would any true Christian want to be anything less than just like their Heavenly Father?<br /><br />I know that we have some considerably radical claims, when compared to other Christian sects. That doesn't make us less Christian. We don't deny the truth and goodness inherent in other Christian sects. We don't, despite our claim as the only church to have the fullness of the Gospel, claim that other churches aren't Christian. No other church dares to make claims as bold as ours. We have everything to lose if our claim about the Book of Mormon is not true. Either it comes from God to testify of Christ, or it has come from the Devil to tempt men away from the Son. I have read that book several times, and I cannot deny the truths contained in it. <br /><br />As one of our current Apostles said: "Tell me whether in this hour of death these two men [the brothers Joseph Smith and Hyrum Smith] would enter the presence of their Eternal Judge quoting from and finding solace in a book which, if not the very word of God, would brand them as imposters and charlatans until the end of time? They would not do that! They were willing to die rather than deny the divine origin and the eternal truthfulness of the Book of Mormon."<br />Full text can be found here (a great read, if you have time!):https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2009/10/safety-for-the-soul?lang=eng<br /><br />That book is true. Mormons are Christians. I bear my testimony that Jesus is the Christ, and that He died for all of us. <br /><br />I hope that you were not offended by my remarks. I don't hope to have changed your mind about Mormons being Christians, but I couldn't go through my day knowing that I had a chance to bear my testimony and didn't take it.<br /><br />My best to you in all that you do, and my hopes that we can find some common ground, rather than argue semantics. <br /><br />Grant Herron<br /><br />P.S. - Architecture and Morality is an interesting subject! I've often thought, as a Christian, that many of my beliefs will be called into question regardless of my profession. It pays to have a strong testimony and set of morals!rgrantherronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11748181382909491264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171359.post-10700682691803157062013-02-27T07:14:02.916-08:002013-02-27T07:14:02.916-08:00Sir,

As I scrolled down the page, I noticed a lot of Christian-based posts, which seemed appropriate, given the title of the blog. I then saw this post about Mitt Romney, and read it.<br /><br />I appreciate the politeness with which you speak of Romney and those of the Mormon faith. What I disagree with, though I frankly am not surprised since I hear the claim fairly often, is your statement that those of the Mormon sect are not Christians. I think a lot of the confusion comes from the fact that we are often referred to as "Mormons" because of the convenience the term affords, both in terms of quickness and in ambiguity.<br /><br />The official name of our church is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We have always claimed to be Christian, though many find that laughable, because the yardstick by which all Christian faiths tend to be measured is the Catholic Church, which claims the Apostolic lineage. However, if I am correct, you are a Lutheran minister, and by definition, recognize some form of apostasy within the Catholic church. <br /><br />After Christ was crucified, the church that he established quickly fell into apostasy, due to the extreme persecution of its members, and its speedy growth. The church failed to consolidate and maintain a close eye on its members. False teachings spread despite the best efforts of the Prophet and his Apostles, and the line of the Priesthood was broken as they were hunted down and killed. <br /><br />Martin Luther, as you know, recognized that the Catholic Church's teachings lacked consistency with Christ's biblical teachings, and wrote his 99 Theses, thus creating the Protestant movement. Men tried to reform the church, but were unable to do so perfectly without direct priesthood authority from God.<br /><br />I am not telling you this to be condescending, but to provide mutual understanding as a backdrop to what I am about to say--something I'm sure you've heard a thousand times.<br /><br />Joseph Smith, an unpretentious 14 year-old boy, was conducting his own personal search to find which of the Christian sects was most correct, and when he escaped to a secluded spot in the woods behind his home and found a quiet spot to converse with his Father in Heaven. He was surprised to find that none of them contained a fullness of doctrine (although they all contained parts of it). This was surprising for two reasons:<br />1. He had never supposed that none of them could be correct.<br />and<br />2. Not knowing what to expect when he prayed, he never would have imagined that God and Jesus Christ themselves would visit him personally to tell him. <br /><br />But his work on this earth was divine, because he was foreordained to restore, once and for all, the Gospel of Jesus Christ in its fullness. The biblical Apostles appeared to him, conferring upon him the ancient priesthood power, and instructing him as to what he should do. As you know, a new book of scripture emerged as a "New Testament of Jesus Christ" which does not compete with the Bible for followers, but complements its teachings, and fills in the holes created through years of persecution of the early Christians and errors in translation.<br /><br />To be continued...<br />rgrantherronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11748181382909491264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171359.post-3751934304637605362012-10-21T13:12:44.841-07:002012-10-21T13:12:44.841-07:00I appreciate this analysis, particularly your poin...I appreciate this analysis, particularly your point about utopianism. I think many of us forget why understanding and accepting Original Sin is important. This can't become a crutch, but an impulse to seek God. <br /><br />Mormons are certainly different, but they tend to be pretty nice people.<br /><br />I'm surprised Harry Reid was a Mormon. I guess I'm surprised to see any politician profess to some kind of faith. Most seem pretty removed from it. Benedict Augustinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07274188116075677081noreply@blogger.com
