Mormonism - The Latter Day Saints

[Carbon]

Quick facts of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (The Mormons).

1) The Bible is the Word of God insofar as it is correctly translated. There are three sacred books in addition to the Bible:

The Book of Mormon
The doctrine and covenants.
and,
The Pearl of great price.

2) The Earth is one of several inhabited planets ruled over by gods and goddesses, who were at one time humans on other planets. Mormonism is polytheistic in its core.

3) The Trinity consists of three gods born in different times and places; the Father begot the Son and the Holy Ghost as spirit-children through a goddess wife in heaven.

4) Humankind is of the same species as God. God begot all humans in heaven as offspring of his wife or wives, who were sent to earth for their eventual exaltation to godhood.

5) Salvation is resurrection, but exaltation to godhood, for eternal life in the Celestial heaven, must be earned through self-meriting works.

As one who has corresponded with mormons...that's about right.
Though the mormons diverge a bit with each other on their understanding.
I've also noticed the mormons don't deviate from their learned script.

They have filtered the bible through their three sacred books rather than filtering their three sacred books through the bible. They are not very good Bereans.

The mormons trust a false system and are not saved. The mormons need our prayers.
