True mormons dont just have one God but everyone who did there study on the early mormon church would find it was and had nothing to do with joseph smith the word mormon came from \nthe Amazonians. Look it up on the net the true nature of the mormon existence was about women it always has been and always well. The men know this who are very high up they just dont care anymore. Some of them do and leave but the mormons dont just have greek mythology in there the dumb butt PUT   Egyptian IDOLS and had no idea what he was getting himself into, but hey everyone knows that is not a mormon brainwashed idiot? That joseph smith had a degree in the craft and was spotted with anne lee who belived to be the christ in recarnation so go figure.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, commonly referred to as Mormons, believes in Jesus Christ, and God the father. They are, as their name implies, a Christan church.\n\nPlease go to these web sites for more information www.lds.org and www.mormon.org as many of the answers already given are NOT true and mearly mis-informed opinions.

Honestly, I have never heard of anyone thinking that Mormons don't believe in Christ.  That's news to me.  Mormons believe in Christ just as much as the next person.  I'm not Mormon, in fact, I was baptised Lutheran but ever since I was a kid (I'm 43 now), I've gone to quite a few churches.  I've gone to Lutheran churches, Catholic, Baptist, etc.  And I have to say, the best time I had was when I was in first grade through 5th grade as I went to church with my neighbors who were Mormons.  We did Sunday church, Wednesday was primary school (I can still hear the song in my head), and Monday nights I was always invited to participate in their family home evenings.  It was a great experience!

The diferences between Mormons and Christians/Baptists are so many and so great that mainline Christians almost universally consider Mormons to be unsaved cult members and not Christians.\n\nFor one thing, Mormons do not consider Jesus to be God. A Christian believes in the Trinity-God being made up of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.\n\nMormons consider Jesus to be a brother of satan and merely a man. Christians believe that Jesus is also God. Christians believe that one cannot deny the Jesus of the Bible and be saved. \n\nMormons believe that God was once a man and later became God. They believe that God has a number of heavenly wives and that God lives near a star called Kolob. They believe that Jesus was conceived by God coming to earth as a man and having phsyical relations with the virgin Mary. Christians believe that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit and that Mary was still a virgin at his birth.\n\nMormons believe everyone has two sets of parents-spiritual parents and earthly parents. They believe they are first born as spirits and then sit around until a couple on earth conceives a baby and then they are assigned a body. Mormons have a lot of children because their church has told them that there are a surplus of spirit babies waiting for earthly bodies, so it is the church members responsibility to provide them. \n\nThe men of the Mormon church in the 1800s were encouraged to take multiple wives so they could create a lot of eartly babies for these spirit babies. Many times women were strong-armed into accepting additional wives into their families because they were told by their husband and the church leaders that they wouldn't get into heaven if they disagreed. \n\nYoung women who might not want to marry an old guy with several wives already were also told that they wouldn't get into heaven if they didn't marry some old geezer they didn't like.\n\nUpon marrying women were given a new spiritual name and so were their husbands. The men would know the woman's name but not vica versa. This was so the man could supposedly call his wife into heaven someday. It was also kind of hung over her head that she had to be obedient or her husband wouldn't call her into heaven.\n\nIt is my understanding that until recently the Mormon church in some of its special ceremonies had participants pretend to cut their throats or tear out their organs if they would leave the church. \n\n\nMormons actually believe that they will each become gods someday and rule heavens. Christians believe that men are men, that men do not become gods. Christians do not have this strange spiritual belief and pride that Mormons do.\n\n Mormons believe in heavenly marriages. Jesus taught that marriages are just while people are on earth. Mormons perform "eternal" marriages in their temples in the belief that in the afterlife when they think they are gods and godesses that they can make lots of spirit babies which in turn will be sent to earth to some human couple who conceives.\n\nMormons believe in baptizing the dead into their church, so frequent baptisms are held in their temple for ancestors of Mormons who they believe may not have been baptized into the Mormon church. They have also taken upon themselves to baptized most dead US presidents as well as a number of Jewish holocaust victims, until a number of those of the Jewish faith complained. \n\nThis is why Mormons are so interested in genealogy. They want to marry and baptize all these dead people.\n\nMormons believe in a three tiered heaven-a telestial, terrestial, and celestial heaven. They believe that only married Mormons can attain their highest level of heaven (celestial), so single Mormons are always encouraged to look attractive and find a mate so they can make the highest level. \n\nChristians believe in one heaven, not a multi-tiered one. Christians don't believe being married has any affect on their status in heaven.\n\nTo get into a Mormon temple to b

There is ONE God. Jehovah.\n\nIslam started out with over 360 false gods.  They pretty much got it narrowed down to a single moongod now.

Mormons are Christians, first of all.  According to the teachings of the church, we must follow Christ and accept Him as our Savior.  They pray in the name of Christ, and perform all church ordinances in the name of Christ.  They sing hymns about Christ.  Christ is considered to be the Head of the church.  Yes, they believe Christ also visited the American continent after His death.  Yes, they believe that Jesus is the Son of God, and that God the Father and Jesus Christ are two separate beings, yet one in purpose.  And they believe that God continues to reveal His word to man through living prophets.  But how do these doctrines make them non-Christian?\n\nMormons study from the Bible just as much as they do from the Book of Mormon.  In fact, the curriculum for Sunday School lessons this year is the Old Testament.\n\nIf the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints only pretended that they believed in Christ, then why would people stay in the church after getting baptized?  Why would the church keep growing at such a tremendous rate if its members only pretended to believe in Christ in order to attract more converts?  More than two-thirds of its baptisms every year are convert baptisms.  The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the fastest growing religion of North and South America.  Joseph Smith, at a time when the church only had six members, prophesied that the church would fill North and South America, and eventually the whole world.  Brigham Young prophesied that the earth would be dotted with hundreds of temples, at a time when they were just beginning to be built.  We are seeing these prophesies fulfilled before our own eyes.\n\nSo many people have been deceived by a pack of liars, who say the Mormons aren't Christian, and consider the Mormon religion to be one of the most evil on the planet.  Christ said "Ye shall know them by their fruits."

There isn't just one god -- humans in various cultures and at various times have created the god they wanted to believe in, which is why there are so many different beliefs and so many religions.  If there really was a real, single god would there be so much chaos as to "his" truth, and so many bad things being done is "his" name?\n\nAll religions claim they have the full truth, and anyone who doesn't accept that truth is wrong (or sinful, or going to hell, or infidels, or whatever).  With so many contradictions between the various religions, they can't all be right...and I don't believe *any* of them are right.

Yes but  They like so many others have other books and other prophets.  Joseph Smith for instance, was not a prophet of God, but they would say yes.  There are many things they do that the Bible says not to do.  Not bashing, just telling the truth and I can back it up with a lot of scriptures and Mormon statements if you would like.

From a Mormon point of view I would say God the Father and Jesus Christ were definitely there. Since we are all children of God, I believe that we were also in the same pre-mortal realm, although we did not have the same creative authority as they have. However, it would not be outside the bounds of imagination to say that God and Jesus Christ organized intelligent spirits to help with smaller aspects of the creation. Those would be both male AND female spirits, including any angels who had that capacity to serve. Perhaps you have lived in a community where an elementary school was being built to further the education of children of new families who had moved into the area. If you can apply that idea further, perhaps that is what was going on in the pre-earth life - we all had a chance to see what was going on and support God and Jesus Christ. As children of God, we would resemble our Heavenly Parents (in their image), just as children on earth resemble their physical parents. We are part of the race of gods, but we are passing through a mortal stage right now to keep learning about physical and spiritual laws. This is just my opinion, but it is based on a smaller book of scripture called the Pearl of Great Price we use in addition to the Bible and the Book of Mormon (because after all, who wants to limit an author to just one book, and we can't limit God if He wishes to teach His children in other lands).

Mormons believe: God is an exalted man.  Elohim, the God of this universe, was previously a man in a prior existence.  As a result of having kept the requirements of Mormanism, he was exalted to godhood and inherited his own universe.  God is confined to a body of flesh and bones and yet is thought to be omniscient and omnipotent.  He obviously can not be omnipresent.  There are an infininte number of gods with their own worlds.  These too were previously men, The Holy Ghost, Jesus Christ and "Heavenly Father" comprise 3 separate and distinct gods. Heavenly Father sires spiritual children in heaven destined for human life on earth.  All humans, as well as Jesus Christ and Lucifer, are gods heavenly children.  Every human being has the potential of becoming a god by keeping the requirements of Mormonism.  The Morman plan of salvation is built on the idea that all people have eternal life, but only the most faithful Mormons have godhood or enter the celestial kingdom.  In order to obtain this ultimate step, Mormons must exercise faith in the God of Mormonism, its Christ, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints; exercise repentence; and be baptisted in the LDS church.  Additionaly Mormons must keep the "Word of Wisdom" by abstaning from alcohol, tobacco, and caffiene; tithe to the church; attend weekly sacrament meetings; support the Mormon prophet; do temple works; and be active in their support of the Church.  \n\nIs this Christianity, I think not.

Mormons believe that the "true" religion of christ was lost from the earth shortly after christ died.  This "true" christianity was then restored through their first prophet, Joseph Smith, in 1830 when god and jesus appeared to him and told him he had been chosen to restore the true church to the earth.  He also was visited by Moroni, supposedly a prophet from a lost race of ancient americans, who told him where to find golden plates on which was written the spiritual history of his people, similar to the bible but with all of the events taking place in ancient America.  The book he "translated" from these plates became the book of Mormon (Mormon was one of the ancient American prophets), and tells their history as well as the story of Jesus visiting the faithful in America after his resurrection.\nThey believe "as man now is, god once was...and as god now is, man may become" -- meaning that god was once a guy on a planet like us, he did good, achieved eternal life, and was given this earth to rule.  They believe that each of us can do the same, after our lives are over if we're righteous we can get our own world to create/rule over, populate with spirit children, etc.  You get to be a god!\nThey have secret rituals that are done in their temples that are derivatives of Masonic rituals, secret underwear that reminds them of the rituals done in the temples and which are supposed to protect them from harm, still hold plural marriage (polygamy) as a tenet of their religion although it's currently not practiced officially by church members.  They are adamant about collecting 10% tithing (you have to "settle" with your local church every year, showing your tax return and proving you paid your 10% to be considered a faithful member).  They're big on missionary work and getting new members, sending thousands of missionaries to every country in the world they can every year.  They believe they can do "sacraments" (baptism, temple marriages, etc.) for their relatives who have passed away and never had a chance to join the Mormon church, which will give them the chance to accept it in the afterlife.  There are other differences, but that's the gist of it :)\n\nI'm a former Mormon who did a 2-year missionary stint, and know the temple routines very well.  Send me an e-mail or IM if you want to know more.

I am not a Mormon, but in the studies I have done, I have found that Mormons believe in the Torah and the NT>  The problem is, they believe in it so long as it is correctly interpreted...by the leaders of the church.  Joseph Smith, the founder of Mormonism, said that the Bible and all it's teachers were corrupt.  He claimed to have been given a new testament of Jesus Christ.  The Mormons use th Book of Mormon and The Pearl of Great Price as their ultimate authority on everything, including the OT and NT.  There were literally thousands of errors in the original Book of Mormon when Joseph Smith recieved the Divine revelation.  Those have been corrected, for the most part.  There is also the contradictions of scripture and revelation that have taken place since then.  At one point, the prophet, Joseph Smith and then the presidents of the church...Brigham Young, etc., stated as prophecy that Mormons will practice polygamy...that this was a commandment that shall be everlasting.  After the US government told them that they will abandon that belief or get kicked out of Utah and the US, a new, everlasting commandment, came down from God to the president of the church saying you shall not commit polygamy.  I hate it when gods are afraid of the gvernment. ;)  Sorry, my Christian bias came through there.

This is completely unknowable.\nI believe that Norse Gods numbered about a dozen, Egyption were more than a dozen, Greek were considerably more than a dozen.  Hindu has over a thousand documented Gods.  Depending on the sect, Buddhism has one, several, or no Gods.\n\nThe Hebrew, Christian, Mormon, and Muslim Gods can be reliably counted as one since all these religions sprouted from eachother.\n\nI would have to say a rough estimate of 1500 to 2000, but an actual number is completely unknowable when you consider the number of either long dead or alive but undocumented religions.

Yes, there is more than one kind.  The Mormon kind, that God listens to, and everyone elses, which are only heard by Satan in Hell.

Yes, but the converse is also true.  Mormen men only gain salvation through their wives.  Its a package deal in Mormonism. Families are a very big deal in Mormon theology. According to strict mormon theology only married couples can recieve exhaltation the highest level of salvation. Many mormons will disagree since they dont know their own theology as well as they should.
