Kacy, a Christian is a follower of Jesus Christ. Therefore we as members of The Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints are Christians:) Jesus Christ is the center of our faith:)

Savannah Harker Hi Savannah :) with all respect, yes you believe in Jesus, but it’s not the Jesus of the Bible. The Bible makes it clear that Jesus and God are not separate beings. Jesus is God in the flesh. Also, the teaching that Jesus and Lucifer are spirit brothers is false.

Savannah Harker, right a follower of Christ is a Christian but to follow Christ you actually have to do what he says and believe what he said to be true. He said “I and the Father are one.” John 10:30

Katie M hi!! like brit & connor i am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. we are christians! we believe that in the bible when it’s says God and Jesus are “one” it means one in purpose, though they are 2 separate beings. i totally respect your beliefs though, just hoping to help you understand what we believe❤️❤️❤️have a great day

Sarah Margaret okay thanks for sharing😊 Have a great day also

Hey how do you know it is true?

Like they said, prayer, Book of Mormon, The Bible, and stuff like that 👍🏻

I love this as well!

I love this, thanks so much for this beautiful idea! :)

i’ve seen so many negative comments about the church on this video, but this comment made me smile. everyone else is trying to say how my religion is wrong and I shouldn’t be calling myself a Christian, but your comment made me smile so thank you :)

Love this!

I like this idea.

This is so amazing!!! I'm praying that God would speak to you and continue to reveal the truth of who He is and that you would continue to grow closer to HIm. Remember that no matter what, God loves you!!

Awe thank you!! I’ll pray for you too!! 🙏

I pray that God would reveal Himself to you and the ultimate truth also. I pray that you wouldn’t be confused but that you would have unshakeable faith in Jesus Christ and that the Holy Spirit would guid you and keep you from being deceived from false teaching in Jesus name amen.

Thank you! I think I’ve narrowed it down to RC, LDS, LC and Baptism. I’ll pray for you too 🙈💕🤙🏻

CJ Jordan LDS is the way to go!! i know it’s the true church and it makes me sooo happy. sometimes if your faced with a decision and you need to ask god, try asking him about each one individually. also, god will never let you make a wrong decision without warning you!! pick what makes you feel the happiest and most peace, and that’s how you’ll know it’s a good decision. it’s so awesome that you are praying every night, and for other people! i can tell god is so pleased with you, and loves you a lot. keep up the good work & good luck!

This is so touching, I have chills! So happy for you to be able to be sealed soon. Thank you for your faith 🤍

Anna Walker you’re so sweet, thank you💛

I'm catholic as well!! There are so many great resources for us to grow in our faith!!

Mormon not Religion Mormon is Christian We believe jesus Christ and god In Bible. The book of Mormon Is Testament Of Jesus Christ In America in BC year

Hey! How do you share the Gospel with people? like what do you usually say?

Hey congrats!!! Sending you lots of love. Looking forward to serve a mission as well!! ❣

I just started the Bible recap!!!

Lauren Corradino it’s so great 😄

We don’t support it, but that doesn’t mean we don’t love the people! Everyone on earth are children of God and all deserve to be loved and to be treated right. So as for me, I will love you and treat you right, I just don’t support it!

@@nicholewalker9104 Glad to know you don't believe in equality for all. Regardless of sexual orientation, anyone and everyone is entitled to love and have a life with the person they love. The mormon faith thinks that is reserved for only heterosexual couples. This is just flat out a lack of equality. To be denied the same privileges as a straight couple because of who you choose to love is just wrong.... You can say you love them and the community, but until you see an issue with the treatment and inequality for the LGBTQ community in this faith, there are some serious issues. It all boils down to equality, the mormon church lacks this in regards to LGBTQ individuals, as well as women in general. When I declined a calling at age 16 I was told by a priesthood holding male to, "Go home, pray about it and give me a different answer." This is disgusting after I had said no. The patriarchy, as well as the attempts to hide sexual abuse and protect pedophiles and molesters from the mormon church is repulsive If you don't know about this, like many members don't, I suggest you look into it.

Amt_11 hi, I’m a member of the LDS church and I’m hoping my answer can help you in some way. You obviously do not have to agree with me, and please feel free to question me or respond further, but I feel strongly about all of these topics like you. I don’t think what the other commenter said was extremely accurate, although she wasn’t meaning to hurt, but she said things along the lines of “we don’t support it but we still love”. It’s hard when members of a church try to speak for everyone, because I know I feel differently still as a member. On the topic of the LGBTQ+ community, I hope one day there will be a change in revelation for their families and sealings and rights in this church. We, like any other organization, have been growing and the leaders constantly change according to need, but change is not bad. It doesn’t mean it’s not true. I am fighting for the rights for the gay, trans, any sexual and gender community to be able to feel comfortable in our church. I don’t think it’s right how they’re treated. We NEED equality. I’m with you on that. I just hope you can understand that I feel as though I can stay a member of the LDS faith while also believing that. Also yes, there are corrupt things that have and are happening within the lines of sexual abuse and things. It’s awful that all organizations have horrible people within them. No “buts” about it. We need to fix that, as well, and going forward i feel as though a group of evil people and choices does not infringe on the doctorine and personal love I’ve felt through God in my faith and religion. So yes, we need to ask the hard questions. We need to argue the priesthood leader that says “pray and come back with a different answer”. Frankly that’s all bullshit , and things need to change. But for me, I don’t think that represents the faith Mormonism (for lack of a better term) teaches. The people are not God, and hopefully we can get those groups to change or get out and practice our faith in an equal and safe manner

Actually, the church has changed its stance on LGBTQ. We do believe in equality for all. While it doesn't promote Gay, lesbian, or Transexual marriage and so forth because it believes in traditional marriage it does believe that everyone should be treated fairly. Your question is kind of like a trick question because It's like there I got you! No, While the church does not believe in same-sex marriage it does believe everyone should be treated with love and kindness, so if that is your choice or someone else's choice the church respects that. I am LDS and my husband's college married a person of the same sex. My friend's husband who was the bishop marched in the Gay Parade. Our organist was homosexual and everyone loved him. We celebrated with him, bought him a gift, and wish him well. Yes, Joseph did marry a 14-year-old girl and yes he was a polygamist. First, you can't judge people of the past by today's standards. It was very common in the time period for girls as young as 14 to get married. My great grandmother was 14 when she married. Her mother had died in the pandemic of 1918 and her father could not care for her anymore. I don't know if it was her choice exactly to get married so young but she did. Lots of girls did back then. Polygamy is separate but there are many cultures today where polygamy is still practiced that are not LDS. Marriage back then was more about survival than romance. You can look this up historically. Women didn't have the right to own property, have a bank account, vote, and so forth. So being married was a way a woman could have right via there husbands back at that time. No, you can judge and say that is wrong, but if it is OK for a person to love some of the same sex than why is it wrong for a man who takes care of his wives to be wrong. I am not promoting that but today we have men who go out and have affairs and who sleep around make babies and so forth and don't' take care of them. If both parties agree, then what is the problem. Let me tell you while yes men in the church might hold the priesthood behind every man is a strong woman and I would say we have just as much say in the church, in our marriages, and our families as any man. I have never been treated as less than and in fact, I believe women in the church are put on a petal stool as the church is always telling the men to be kind to us and treat us properly. Proportionally more women are working outside the home and are seeking higher education. Did you know LDS were the first woman in the united states to vote? I am sure there are a few bad apples in the bunch, but I am sure that is the case too in any group. You can't say all Mormons are this or all gays are this!

Lmfao because however they feel about these topics does, what, for you?

Yay! Fellow catholic here!!

Yes, the church is more conservative and while I can't say everyone loves those in the LGBT community as people come to know and learn about those in this group so does their hearts. I suppose this is the same for the world population though.

I know this question is not for me, but your comment was really nice and I thought I could add some. So I’m LDS and my brother and aunt aren’t anymore. My family is still active in the church but that doesn’t change how much we love my brother. Sometimes we will invite him to church again, and he might get annoyed hahah, but it’s just because we miss him there. Nevertheless, I love my brother like no other and everyone has different opinions. I think we respect them and love them anyway, even tho we might want to have them back with us.

My husband and I are LDS and we have 6 children. Our oldest has left religion altogether and while we are sad he has made this choice, but we just continue to love him. No pressure to go to church at all. He has the choice to do as he wants because that is one of the core teachings in the church is free agency. We all have the choice to choose between good and bad.

of course, thanks for watching!!

We believe in the Bible as the word of God and don't pick and choose. We don't believe it is a feeling. We believe in Jesus Christ the son of God. We believe he died for you and for me that through his atonement we can return to our Heavenly Father that he washes away all our sins. Nothing we can do will ever make up for his atonement. It is ultimate; however, we do believe that we should choose to live our lives worthy of his atonement. To be a true follower of Christ means your actions are in alignment with his work.

@@kelleynrothaermel2311 This is great and all, really it is, but what about in the bible where it says you cannot add or subtract anything from it? To claim that Jesus came to the Americas and preached among the Nephites is NOT written in the Bible but from a prophet. Whatever the Bible is composed of now is what was, is, and will be. Here is a website I found that talks more about this. I say all of this in love and respect, always! bibleask.org/did-jesus-visit-the-ancient-americas/

@@gracewicks3290 Obviously you have no idea of the history of the bible. Are you aware that there are many more chapters to the bible sitting in the Vatican. In history, all the Catholic authorities came together for a conference. In that meeting, they looked at all the books that were written and decided which chapters would go into the book. So the bible is not complete. It is just the narrative that they wanted us to read. Yes, the Nephites are not written in the bible because they left Jerusalem at least 700 years before Christ was born. There is also a part in the bible after Jesus' resurrection where he comes back and before he ascends back to God he says he has to visit his other children. Who were his other children. Do you not think that Jesus would not visit all his children on this earth or were somehow only the Jews/Christians only worthy of his message. Another fact is that when Christopher Columbus came to the Americans they-the Native Americans thought he was Jesus/God. Why would they think Christopher Columbus was God or Jesus if in their history they had never met him. Also, there are many other things in the Book of Mormon that there is no way Joseph Smith wrote about that there is no way he could have known about because they had not been yet discovered or he had no access to that type of information. He didn't have the internet. He didn't have a library. He was just a 14-year-old boy with a 3rd-grade education. If you would like a copy. I would be happy to send you one. The book of Mormon is an account of Jesus' love for his children. It isn't about Joseph Smith. It is about God and his love! You should read it! It changed my life. We also believe in the Bible and are lucky that the Book of Mormon does not contradict the testimonies given in the bible.

@@kelleynrothaermel2311 I appreciate your comment, but there are some things that I will never agree with when it comes to Mormonism, such as claiming that Jesus and Satan are spirit brothers. Or that the authority of Jesus and the apostles simply disappeared when he left, when in fact, Christians were filled with the Holy Spirit which gives them the authority to do and say the things Jesus did, i.e. cast out demons, perform miracles, and heal people. I do have an understanding of the history of the Bible. My question is, why has no historical evidence been released about these "Nephites" and why would the Bible not be updated if it was so important to include regarding the history of Mormonism? Mormonism is such a small community compared to Christianity as a whole and other denominations so I'm just so confused why it would be such a minority when you're claiming everything you are. What you're saying is great, but if it is so great, why is it not accepted by the Christian society as a whole? Hopefully that makes sense :)

@@kelleynrothaermel2311 Also I do not agree in saying that the trinity are three separate beings. You guys claim you believe what the Bible says but then you say otherwise. The trinity is ONE being. It should not be separated into parts, that is not what the Bible says.

Dominique Mullicane thats so awesome that you are joining the church!! so proud of you

How do you go about joining 😇🙏

To learn more you can visit comeuntochrist.org and by getting in touch with the LDS missionaries in your area! If you have any questions about getting in touch with them I would love to help!

you need to do more research. They believe if you work hard enough, you will become a God when you die. Have your own planet. Isaiah 43:10 refutes that. Also believe Jesus was conceived in heaven and is Satans brother.

Danny Delk have you thought about the context of Isaiah 43? God was reprimanding the Israelites because they were worshipping graven images and statues made with man’s hands. On repeated occasions the Lord declared in these chapters that none of these images or statues, whether formed in the past or in the future, would ever be a god. With the context in mind, it is clear by stating “before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me” he was talking about the incapacity of graven images to become gods, and nothing to do with man’s capacity to become a god.

I absolutely love that you didn’t attack them but rather just asked questions out of curiosity! I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, but I love to learn about others religions and beliefs as well. We do not worship Joseph Smith. We believe he was God’s hands on earth who was able to translate the Book of Mormon with God’s power. The Book of Mormon was written by prophets of old just like the Bible and then translated by Joseph Smith. Jesus is the mediator and through him we are able to communicate through prayer with Heavenly Father. We believe that we have the constant companionship of the Holy Ghost who guides us.

Awesome question. Joseph Smith was a con man. He claimed he would use what was called the "urim and thummim" to translate the Book of Mormon. He said only he could use these seer stones. He also claimed that he had "spectacles" that helped him interpret what God wanted translated. He was arrested because he was a criminal. He is talked about as a martyr, which is actually quite silly considering he was a law breaker, he scammed people, and he promoted polygamy which was illegal...the rest of the nation knew polygamy was disgusting and wrong, but Joseph LOVED having all those women. He was eventually killed by a mob, not because of his godly work, but because he was a fraud, a con man, and broke many laws and citizens were done with him. I was mormon and have done much research on this topic. Hope this helps, I believe he was never, and has never been a man called of God, seeing all he really did and who he really was.

@@sophiakoop9732 He also committed treason against Illinois,"He was charged with treason and conspiracy by Illinois authorities" (Histoyrt.com, 2020) not to mention "A group of dissenting Latter-day Saints began publishing a newspaper that was highly critical of the practice of polygamy and of Smith’s leadership; Smith had the press destroyed" (History.com, 2020). He wasn't a prophet, he was a man who wanted power, and he is more or less worshiped, if you go to an LDS church, you will hear lessons on him often times more than Jesus and God which I always had an issue with. I don't think that God would have ordained a "prophet" to do any of these awful things.

@@amt_1115 And since then Illinois has since made an apology. Joseph never went to trial for anything. He was may have been accused of things, but he was never charged. Learn your history. He never got a trial. He was murdered in cold blood. The only crime Joseph committed was that his community was successful and those in neighboring communities were jealous.

@@kelleynrothaermel2311 Hey would you suggest that someone read the book of Mormon?

❤️

Thank you🤍

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ are Christians :) Christ is the cornerstone of our religion.

Jesus is the sole focus of our religion and if there were more books to support his ministry why wouldn't you read them. Christians spend just as much time focused on motivational speakers as they do the bible, so how can you call us not Christian just because we find support in additional readings. Maybe there would be more peace on this earth if instead of trying to tear each other down we can find common ground and that is Jesus Christ and his love for all his children.

I’m interested in joining, but I have been raised Catholic so I’m afraid that I won’t get full support since no one in my family is lds

@@camillephillips3524 it’s a super big and scary step, but the light and joy it can bring to your life is much bigger. Some won’t except it, family included, but having Faith in what YOU think is true is what matters the most! I wish you the best!❤️

@@caliehorn4947 Thank you so much❤️ I’m so happy for you and I wish you all the love on your journey with God

i know a couple people that are LDS who have a parent that isn’t a member of the same church, it really depends on the person. most do not marry outside of the church because in order to get married in our temples both need to be members and have received their endowment (a covenant made in the temple). the difference between getting married in the temple and at a more common wedding (walking down the aisle, etc) is that we believe when we are married in the temple we are sealed together for time and all eternity, past death. whereas an the latter is just “until death do we part” :) hope that makes sense

Thank you :)

serving a mission is a personal choice. boys can go starting at 18 and girls starting at 19. you are assigned where to go (you don’t get to choose). missionaries are sent all over the world!

Yes! What she said! The place as to where your mission is going to be is a prayerful decision by our prophet and apostles! (My sister got called to Italy! Hopefully she can still go 🤞)

its voluntary! so you send in your papers, and then you are assigned where youre going by revelation :) my brother leaves for his reassignment to montana next week but he was originally assigned to mozambique, africa!

hi! i am also a member of the church of jesus christ of latter day saints. this is a great question and this is something that members struggle with too because its clear that some of our past church leaders have caused a lot of pain and heartache. our church leaders aren’t perfect even if they’re called by god because we believe the only person that has come to earth is jesus christ. everyone makes mistakes and the prophets are absolutely not exempt from this part of life! our job as church members, including prophets & apostles, is to learn and grow on this earth. we’re meant to make mistakes & christ died for us so that we can repent of them and become better! our church policies are updated often to best reflect god’s will and plan for us on earth. we believe the greatest commandments are to love god and love your neighbor and i personally believe those should come before any other commandment or church policy. i believe we still have some policies that are hurtful to certain communities but the best we can do as members is to love and respect one another. i hope this answers your questions!

I love your comment! I used to be mormon key word USED to be. I left the LDS church because of the homophobia, the lack of acceptance, and the endorsement of sexism and a truly messed up culture. A professor at BYU just said "having openly gay students on campus would be a blessing" he is not getting death threats from mormons. The LDS culture is so toxic, coming from someone who was a part of it for 17 years.

Anna Trim i definitely think the culture part has become more important than the doctrine for most members, which is really sad. i truly hope that we see a change soon within the church because i believe it has so much potential if we focus more on our individual relationships with god and christ and serving & loving one another as christ did while he was on the earth. i think sometimes its easy for members to get caught up in the little things when we really just need to be focused on christ & our heavenly parents who have it all figured out for us.

@@milayabealer1530 I am sorry but I have to disagree. The mormon culture is as real as any. You cannot walk into a church full of LDS people and not expect huge cultural differences from someone who may not be. I think that I have found it important to voice feelings and opinions even if they counter what members may say and preach about the faith. I have done a plethora of research as well as been a member. I also found it disheartening that the church hoarded BILLIONS of dollars of tithing money and uses only a fraction of tithing money for charity and service. I believe it is equally as important to do research on the religion you are following as it is to have a good relationship with god as I feel I do. I mean no disrespect but I have had too many experiences in my life with LDS members showing that the "culture" is often not one of love and acceptance.

@@annawalker504 I recommend branching out from these LDS affiliated websites, go out and explore, do your own research, don't rely on mormon websites. They will omit many things. Not saying this to offend, merely to say, you will not be getting the whole truth. Hope this helps.

Maddie Markland hey! I don’t know if I’m quite qualified to answer this question, but we do have our own hymns and music. I love listening to the hymns. I can feel the spirit so strongly, and uplift me so much. During sacrament meeting we believe the spirit can be felt best when we are quiet and reverent, so much of our music is more calm and relaxing, and we don’t clap or anything at the end of music, just because we believe it helps to keep the spirit in our meeting. Many of the songs in our hymn book, however, are also in other Christian churches hymns. Outside of sacrament meeting, I think it’s personal for everyone, but for me, I like to listen to other Christian church’s music, because much of the music goes right along with what we believe in. There’s so much music that can invite the spirit and uplift you that was not created by our church, or members of the church. Hope this helps!

Alyssa Cummings that’s so interesting that you don’t clap at the end! I am a nondenominational Christian and we usually clap at the end of the (mostly contemporary) songs. I never thought about this until now; clapping is great but it turns worship into more of a talent show than having the focus on God

Alyssa Cummings this was SO helpful! that’s so interesting! i absolutely love learning about other denominations and how they worship & feel the spirit!

Oh man... that must be really tough. But what a beautiful time to connect to God and reflect on Him in your life personally. I’m a member and have been listening to “come follow me” lessons on KZfaq for church which has helped bring a lot of insight into my scripture reading. This is a tough polarizing time for sure, but keep the faith. I believe in you. Maybe reach out to the bishop and explain? He can get you connected with somebody. You are so loved!

Reach out to your Bishop, your Relief Society President, and those that you know. Even those of us who have been members for a long time it has been a struggle. COVID has really been hard on everyone. Hopefully, your ward will be having services soon. We get to go back in September. I am sorry you are having a hard time. I am a convert too and my family was against it. My mom has since joined the church and I am married not and I am so glad I joined the church. Hang in there! Heavenly Father loves you!

I am sorry you haven't felt a connection to anyone. First, remember that it is Jesus is what it is all about, and keep trying. I am pretty shy and sometimes I forget that I can't expect everyone to reach out to me, but as you continue to try and get to know people along with serving them you will find your tribe.

Yes, Grace is very important, but we also believe that one can not just say well I believe in Jesus but then do all these horrible things. Therefore some effort is required, but yes works alone can never bring you to God and in the end, it is his Grace that will bring you his salvation.

As members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints we believe that God continues to give us revelation just like He did in the Biblical times. In the 1800’s the prophet Joseph Smith received revelation about a sort of heath code that we call the word of wisdom. This code tells us to avoid certain substances that people often come to rely on. We want to have complete control over our actions and to avoid the chance of becoming dependent on a substance, so we choose to completely abstain from taking them.

You can become dependent or addicted to anything. I know so many Lds people that are dependent on Diet Coke or energy drinks. Just stating my opinion but I think those two things are way worse for your health than a cup of coffee or glass of wine.

@@23ME231 You are absolutely right. You can become addicted to anything, working too much, exercising too much, to much coke, too much food, too much TV watching and so forth. While Jesus did drink wine, we believe in continual revelation. While drinking wine may have been Ok during that time period it may not be good for us at this time period. I don't drink because the church forbids it, but because I have prayed about it and I believe I can live a healthier lifestyle without it. My grandmother was an alcoholic. It destroyed her family. Could I drink without becoming an alcoholic sure, but personally I would rather spend the money on traveling.

we believe there are three kingdoms of glory (heaven) and here’s a link to understand that because it is a lot to explain haha www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/gospel-topics/kingdoms-of-glory

Wow i have not linked this verse with the mormons before. But can you tell me what you think about it?

Because we believe in additional scripture, your question is a very appropriate one. Before discussing it, though, let’s get verses 18 and 19 out in front of us. “For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: “And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” [Rev. 22:18-19] Let us first consider what John meant by “this book” and then consider what he meant by not adding to or taking from it. When John wrote the Book of Revelation in the latter part of the first century A.D., he was not writing the concluding pages of the New Testament, as there was no New Testament in existence at that time. He was an exile on the isle of Patmos and was writing a scroll addressed to seven branches of the Church on the western side of what we today call Turkey. His manuscript was entirely independent of the rest of the 27 separate manuscripts that later came to form the anthology that we know of as the New Testament. Nor was his manuscript necessarily the last one written. It is the consensus of those who have written on the subject that several of these 27 scrolls were written after the Book of Revelation was written. Not until the fourth century A.D. did the emerging collection of sacred writings become the New Testament essentially as we know it today. In the light of these facts, we may see that when John spoke of “this book,” he wasn’t referring to a not-yet-formed New Testament but simply to his own scroll, the Book of Revelation itself. What, then, does John mean when he commands anyone who reads his work not to add words to it or to take words from it? He means that no one should tamper with the text of his scroll in any way. He wants no copyist, no would-be deceiver, no well-intentioned but misguided believer, no one to make any changes in the way it reads. He wants it to remain precisely as he has inscribed it under the inspiration of the Lord. It is interesting that the author of Deuteronomy, the fourth book of the Old Testament, similarly warns his readers, “Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish aught from it.” (Deut. 4:2; compare Deut. 12:32.) In both cases the writers are commanding future viewers of their sacred manuscripts not to alter anything that has been written. Fortunately, no one seems to be arguing, on the basis of the injunction in Deuteronomy, that there never was to be any more scripture, for then some people might conclude that the rest of the Bible must be rejected. Not only is John not saying that there never would be additional scripture, but the inevitable conclusion that one must draw from the Book of Revelation, when taken as a whole, is that John recognized that there undoubtedly would be additional scripture in the last days. How so? What is scripture (Latin: scriptura, “a writing”) but divine revelation in written form? A good portion of the Book of Revelation is a prophecy of heavenly messengers coming to earth at a time beyond John’s day. When such messengers come and a written record is made of the visit and their message, automatically new scripture is formed. In the 11th chapter of the Book of Revelation John predicts the mission of two prophets who will prophesy in Jerusalem at the time of the end. When they prophesy and their divinely revealed message from God is preserved in a written record, again new scripture will be formed. Rising above all other events in prophetic significance in the Book of Revelation is the predicted second coming of Jesus Christ. When Christ comes and men of God make a written record of his coming, once more new scripture will be formed. Rather than the Book of Revelation teaching us that there was never to be more scripture given to the human family, the little volume, viewed from beginning to end, becomes splendid evidence that there would be and must be additional scripture in the last days. -> www.churchofjesuschrist.org

it is considered boys “duty” to go on a mission, women it’s more of their decision. men aren’t forced to go, but most do because it is something they want to do feeling a duty to do so. women also can go if they choose, to spread the goodness of the gospel with the world :). we do believe marriage is to be reserved between a man and a woman, but we shouldn’t chastise others for their decisions (many are not perfect with this, but they will learn eventually to love all). those who experience same sex attraction are not turned away from the church. we don’t know why people experience same sex attraction while we believe we should only marry the opposite gender, but we choose to trust God that for some it is a complex part of the human experience.

Rachel Barker thank you for your response! I hope more lds members accept those who act on that same sex attraction. I wonder how Brit stands on this subject since she has a wide audience with people who are a part of the lgbtq community

thank you!

A lot of people definitely think our church is homophobic, but it’s the opposite actually! We love and support everyone who comes to our church. We believe that marriage is between a man and a woman personally, but we don’t judge or block out anyone who believes otherwise!! there’s actually a few lesbians in my ward and I love them so much!!

There isn't! Some Christian religions would like everyone to believe we aren't Christians because if we aren't Christians than they can continue to promote hate and discrimination against us. To be a Christian is simple to believe in Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father. The difference comes in doctrine. All religions have different doctrines. We do not believe that the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost are one person. We believe they are three different people with one purpose. They all work together to bring to pass the eternal life of man. We don't believe in praying to saints for example. We believe we can pray directly to God.

@@kelleynrothaermel2311 Mormonism and Christianity are separate religions. Just as Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are three different religions. They all follow the same God, but they are not the same. Christians do not believe in prophets - period. I’m not trying to discourage any faith, everyone has a right to believe whatever is true to them. I will say though, it’s super weird how the LDS church has moved away from the word Mormon and is focusing on the word Christian.. you don’t see Christians claiming to be Jews or Muslims claiming to be Christians, ya know?
