Hello LN

It starts at 3 Nephi 27:13 These verses held a great deal of significance for me back when I held to the more traditional Christian beliefs.

I will begin: Mormons are Christian. We believe in the mission of Jesus Christ: that He died so that we might live again, that he is the great redeemer, that he was resurrected on the third day. I agree with you. As long as you define a Christian as one who believes in a certain set of beliefs then...

Why do Mormons want to be called Christian? I view myself as a Mormon and as a Progressive Christian.

I really don't care if you say Joseph Smith was in error. I care what you tell me what I am and am not allowed to call myself. Hello maklelan, I'm a member of the Church of Christ(temple lot). This is one of the many offshoots of the original 1830 church. Should I be allowed to call myself a Mormon...
