| This is one of the Posts in a Christianity Versus Mormonism And the part everyone doesn't care on there Jesus that has just one Biblical Story. |
This is what all it says, so the questions go -
- What is exactly the point of the post?
- What's the term another Jesus?
- And what can you prove in this different Jesus thing?
I will just answer it directly in my opinion about the OP. We as Latter-day Saints Believe in God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ in the Bible and we believe the Bible as the word of God. The articles of faith said it as to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly. Though we will not get to it as of this time since this is not about it. Let's just get to it straight. Below is the list of things written in the Book of Mormon and see how Christian it was or different Jesus Christ. See below -
We talk and preach of Christ -
2 Nephi 25:26 And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins.
If there be no Christ, we are not -
2 Nephi 11
4 Behold, my soul delighteth in proving unto my people the truth of the coming of Christ; for, for this end hath the law of Moses been given; and all things which have been given of God from the beginning of the world, unto man, are the typifying of him.
5 And also my soul delighteth in the covenants of the Lord which he hath made to our fathers; yea, my soul delighteth in his grace, and in his justice, and power, and mercy in the great and eternal plan of deliverance from death.
6 And my soul delighteth in proving unto my people that save Christ should come all men must perish.
7 For if there be no Christ there be no God; and if there be no God we are not, for there could have been no creation. But there is a God, and he is Christ, and he cometh in the fulness of his own time.
They soon believe in Christ and worship the Father in his name -
2 Nephi 25:16 And after they have been scattered, and the Lord God hath scourged them by other nations for the space of many generations, yea, even down from generation to generation until they shall be persuaded to believe in Christ, the Son of God, and the atonement, which is infinite for all mankind—and when that day shall come that they shall believe in Christ, and worship the Father in his name, with pure hearts and clean hands, and look not forward any more for another Messiah, then, at that time, the day will come that it must needs be expedient that they should believe these things.
We knew of Christ -
Jacob 4:4 For, for this intent have we written these things, that they may know that we knew of Christ, and we had a hope of his glory many hundred years before his coming; and not only we ourselves had a hope of his glory, but also all the holy prophets which were before us.
Salvation comes through him -
Mosiah 3:12 But wo, wo unto him who knoweth that he rebelleth against God! For salvation cometh to none such except it be through repentance and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Mosiah 16:6 And now if Christ had not come into the world, speaking of things to come as though they had already come, there could have been no redemption. (recommend reading the whole chapter)
Okay so there are a lot and I search around 300+ on the word Christ and it seems it is the biblical Christ. So, what's the point? I don't know for you, for me, the Bible and Book of Mormon completely said something about Christ, and it's the same being as the resurrected Lord and Savior of all mankind.
If I like to post a whole bunch of Research about Jesus Christ on this single topic. This could be the entire book. But I'm lazy enough to spend just a few out of it. But I guess this has proven the same Jesus Christ in the Scripture or maybe you just don't like it to be there.
