How come mormons do not accept the FACT that Jesus is God in the flesh?

Because 1. They are blind leaders of the blind; and 2. they are a cult both from a sociological and theological point of view; and 3. they are brainwashed.

"Because they believed not the word of God as truth, for this cause shall God send them strong delusion that they should believe a lie."  Mormonism is fallacy, strong delusion to those who do not want to follow the true Messaiah. If Mormons would read the true word of God and not blindly follow false proplhets (Prophedts of Baal) they would understand why the Word says that "turning aside from the Truth, they have turned to fables."\n"-Help stamp out ignorance. Read your Bible"

Mormons are Christians. I cannot see a problem, but then again, I am a Pagan.

The Mormon's (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) believe in God, the Eternal Father, believe in his Only Begotten son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost.  They are one in purpose.  And yes, they are seperate beings.  We worship the Eternal Father, in the name of his beloved Son.

There are many reasons to distrust the teaching of Joseph Smith.  Claiming to be able to decipher Egyptian hieroglyphics, he translated so inaccurately that, when they were translated by an Egyptology's, every single word was wrong (the proof that a prophet is of God is that he is 100 per cent accurate).\n\nThere are many versions of his original manuscripts.  In one he claims there were two beings with Him - God and Jesus, in another he claims there were three.  The list goes on.\n\nOriginal Mormon church doctrine allowed for multiple marriages - the church now does not condone that viewpoint.\n\nMormon church doctrine says that Jesus attained godhood by living a perfect life.  Christianity says that Jesus was born God.  Mormon church doctrine indicates that it is possible to become a 'god'.  Christianity says that there is only one God, and that there never will be any more than one God.  Mormon doctrine says that currently there is only one God on this planet, but there are many other 'gods' elsewhere.  Christianity, again, does not believe in any other 'gods'.

they say they do but they don't jesus is god in flesh. god is the trinity father, SON, holy spirit.  the muslims say that jesus was a phrophet. but they also say that jesus was tring to take credit for what god did. they do not beleive that jesus was his son  John 3:16 "for God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever beleives in him shall not perish but shall have everlasting life." \n\nif u don't beleive in Jesus u don't beleive in God. In order to get to God you must go through Jesus

Mormon isn't true because the Holy Bible was the only book that contained God's words. Jesus said that no one should make any changes to God's words.

The book for explaining God's salvation plan is in the Bible. The Book of Mormon will not have this because Mormons are not a\nchristian religion. Although they acknowledge Jesus, they consider Him either a prophet or just one of many different gods, which they believe they themselves will become some day.\nPeople confuse Mormons' good works and family values with being a christian religion. Christians base their salvation on Christ's life sacrificed as the atonement for sins. Because He is God's son and therefore holy, Christ was the perfect sacrifice and part of God's plan from the start to redeem mankind from sin. There is only one God, not many, Within that Godhead are    three persons - the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, which is a mystery to many.  Belief or trust in Christ's sacrifice as the atonement to cover our repented sins is the basis for our salvation and eternal life. These are the main tenets of \nthe Christian faith which Mormons do not embrace. Several places in scripture have words from Jesus, Paul and John warning against adding or changing the inspired words of God.The subtitle on a "Book of Mormon" that I received on a tour of the Mormon premises in Salt Lake City reads "Another Testament of Jesus Christ". The one and only reliable source of truth is the Bible.

Yes, they do.  However, Mormons will tell you that just because he said it doesn't mean they believe it...which goes against their believing that the words of the prophet/president are the words of God...\n"I know that the Mormon (LDS) church's official stance on ALL races today is that they are to all receive the same blessings according to their faith and diligence."  The key word is "today."  That wasn't the case when the Prophet Brigham Young held the flock under his thumb.  You claim not to pay mind to this because it was well over 100 years ago...The Bible was written 2000 years ago!!!  It only takes a century for the Mormon doctrine to change.  It's been 2000 years for Christianity.  Plus, I've encountered LDS on this site that claim the word of the Prophet to be good enough for them, after all, it really is the word of God.  Why, in the last 150 years had God been so confused?  Does he have Alzheimer's?  For almost two millennium he was solid, then Joseph Smith came along and claimed that God's mind was ever changing.  One cannot trust in a faith that is constantly changing, one that has president's who override past presidents AND the doctrine itself.\n***\nThe LDS keep saying that the remarks sound racist today, but that they didn't back in the 1800's.  His words were the words of God...Was God racist in the 1800's?  Why do you defend him with that answer when all you are really doing is claiming that 100 years ago, God was cool with racism?

How about the out and out contraditions?  Here they are...\nBible and Book of Mormon Contradictions\n\nBy Sandra Tanner\n\n1.The Bible plainly states that the gospel, with its inclusion of Gentiles, was not fully revealed until after Christ's death. \nEph. 3:3-7 Paul writes "by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel: whereof I was made a minister ...... (See also Col. 1:26; 1 Peter 1: 1-12; Romans 16:25-26)\n\nHowever, the Book of Mormon maintains that this knowledge was had in 545 B.C.\n2 Nephi 25:19 "For according to the words of the prophets, the Messiah cometh... his name shall be Jesus Christ, the Son of God. ... (v.23) For we labor... to persuade... our brethren, to believe in Christ, and to be reconciled to God; for we know that it is by grace that we are saved, after all we can do.\n2 Nephi 26:12 "And as I spake concerning the convincing of the Jews, that Jesus in the very Christ, it must needs be that the Gentiles be convinced also that Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God;"\n2 Nephi 30:3 "For behold, I say unto you that as many of the Gentiles as will repent are the covenant people of the Lord; and as many of the Jews as will not repent shall be cast off,"\n2 Nephi 31:17 "For the gate by which ye should enter is repentance and baptism by water; and then cometh a remission of your sins by fire and the Holy Ghost."\n\n2.During Jesus' ministry He spoke of His church as something in the future. \nMatthew 16:18 "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."\nAfter Christ's resurrection and the day of Pentecost we read "And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved." (Acts 2:47)\n\nHowever, the Book of Mormon claims the Christian church was established as early as 147 B.C.\nMosiah 18:17 "And they were called the church of God, or the church of Christ, from that time forward."\n\n3.The Bible says believers were first called Christians after Paul's ministry in Antioch. \nActs 11:26 "And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch."\n\nHowever, the Book of Mormon claims people were known by this title as early as 73 B.C.\nAlma 46:15 "...yea, all those who were true believes in Christ took upon them, gladly, the name of Christ, or Christians as they were called, because of their belief in Christ who should come."\n\n4.The Holy Ghost was bestowed on the Christians at the time of Pentecost. \nLuke 24:49 "And, behold, I send the promise of my Father unto you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high."\nActs 2:1-4 "And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. ... And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost,..."\n\nYet the Book of Mormon claims that people received the gift of the Holy Ghost as early as 545 B.C.\n2 Nephi 31:12-13 "...the voice of the Son came unto me, saying: He that is baptized in my name, to him will the Father give the Holy Ghost, like unto me... Wherefore, my beloved brethren,... by following your Lord and your Savior down into the water, according to his word, behold, then shall ye receive the Holy Ghost; yea, then cometh the baptism of fire and of the Holy Ghost;..."\n\n5.In the Old Testament the only ones who could be priests were the descendants of Levi, one of the twelve sons of Israel. \nNumbers 3:9

they dont want to accept the fact that Jesus was God and dont want to convert or go to mass or do something for God.\nthey just want to be ignorant and live life according to their will. they dont want to acknowledge Jesus as God or else they will have to give up time and worship Him.

your right. MORMONS THINK IT! \n The Holy Bible nor God Himself thinks it. Period.\n\nDead people are just that. Dead people. Jesus Himself said: "Let the dead bury the dead".\n YOU can't touch a dead person's soul.  End of Story.\n  \n   I think one would be wise to concentrate on Respecting \nthe Living as opposed to Disrespecting the dead. \n The Holy Bible will show you ways to do this. I have yet to read anything here on Yahoo about it.\n\nTo: destinepyle: Read Romans 10-9-10 Each one of us will give account of ourselves to God.\n How can a Mormon give account for another person? using a Holy Bible?  not they're own Bingham version?

Ummm, Mormons believe in Jesus.  They just believe in more than Jesus.

You have only faith.\nBack up your faith with research and common sense.\nI do not believe in the Mormon religion.\nRead their Bible if you want to be convinced.\nIt's nonsense.

They are wrong, and they won't go to Heaven I'm afraid.  It says in the Bible that nothing is to be added yet they went and made a whole extra testament!  Also, what's all that rubbish about Mormons inheriting their own planet when they die?  I have a former Mormon friend, who is now a Christian, he uses the analogy that Mormonism is like seeing a cardboard cut-out of The Beatles, whereas Christianity is like meeting them in person - there is just no comparison.  Sorry Mormons, you are wrong...you need to get yourself a personal relationship with Jesus or your off to Hell.

Numerous critics claim that LDS religion is blasphemous and even Satanic because we allegedly think we will become gods. They say we try to rob God and Christ of their glory, the same dark sin that caused Lucifer to be cast to hell in Isaiah 14. When the critics make these claims, they never explain what LDS doctrine really is and what it is not. We absolutely do not believe that we will ever be independent of God or no longer subject to Him. We do not believe that we will take away His glory, but we only add to it by following Christ. For us, there is and always will be a need to be subject to God the Eternal Father, the Almighty God, the "God of gods and Lord of lords," as Deuteronomy 10:17 puts it. He is the One whom we worship and always will worship.\nThe modern Apostle Boyd K. Packer has clarified this issue: \n\nThe Father is the one true God. This thing is certain: no one will ever ascend above Him; no one will ever replace Him. Nor will anything ever change the relationship that we, His literal offspring, have with Him. He is Eloheim, the Father. He is God. Of Him there is only one. We revere our Father and our God; we worship Him. \nThere is only one Christ, one Redeemer. We accept the divinity of the Only Begotten Son of God in the flesh. We accept the promise that we may become joint heirs with Him. \n\n(Boyd K. Packer, "The Pattern of Our Parentage," Ensign, Nov. 1984, p. 69.) \n\nTo those who follow Christ and receive His grace and power, great promises are extended. We are promised that we can receive "the fullness of God" through the grace of Christ (Ephesians 3:19). Christ said that we can become one with Him, as He is one with the Father (John 17:20-23). Paul said that Christians can become "joint heirs with Christ" and be glorified with Him (Romans 8:14-18). He challenged us to pursue the example of Christ "who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God" (Philippian 2:5,6). Peter said that through Christ, we can "put on the divine nature" and receive great and precious promises (2 Peter 1:3-4). Those who follow Christ can become "like Him" (1 John 3:2), can "inherit all things" (Rev. 21:7), and can be kings and priests before God (Rev. 1:6), sitting with Christ in His throne (Rev. 3:21). Critics, how do you explain away such scriptures? They disclose an important aspect of early Christianity, the doctrine of "theosis," holding that man can become like God (much more evidence is given below). \nAfter pondering the above-mentioned scriptures, let's turn to terminology. What do we call glorified, resurrected beings who, through Christ, receive eternal life and the fullness of God as joint-heirs with Christ, sitting with Him in his throne? Personally, I would prefer to call them angels who serve and represent God. However, the word that is used in the Bible and in other LDS sources to describe such beings is not generally angels, but the much more controversial term, gods. (In Doctrine and Covenants 132, "gods" are clearly higher than the angels - but they are nevertheless children of God and subject to Him.) Accept my apologies, but the choice of the term "gods" is not ours. \n\nChrist himself spoke of humans when he quoted Psalms 82:6 and said, in John 10:34, "Ye are gods." As every serious Christian scholar knows, He was not saying that humans are God, but is often interpreted as saying that human representatives of God can be called "gods" in a very limited sense. Humans are not and will not be gods in the sense of Greek philosophy (absolute, ultimate, uncreated, independent beings). No, the terms "gods" when used in the Bible and LDS writings may be meant in a more limited sense not radically different in meaning than "angels" (though a difference in LDS sources is that "angels" are single while "gods" dwell

Mormons are a cult and are not Christians.
