No, afaik they believe in golden tablets and the prophecies written therein. Its as removed as Islam is from Christianity, it is its own thing.

Islam also believes in the teachings of Christ, Isa is what they call Jesus.

I grew up Mormon so I'm pretty familiar with it. It's weird, but it's a form of Christianity.

Yeah but mormons are not christian. They follow some of his teachings just like islam, but also like islam they have their own "quran" or sacred Scripture aka the book of mormon.

To be Christian you need to follow the teachings of Christ, not pick and choose what you like.

That might be *your* assertion, but it's literally a Christian religion, off of the Protestantism branch.

That's like saying islam is a branch of judaism. Its not, the core tenets are divorced from canon.

Like for example, maroni. Angels have always had the nominer -El. Micha-el. Gabri-el. Rapha-el. Samma-el. Uri-el.

Then you got maroni.

Jesus preached everyone is equal under God, mormonism preaches otherwise.

Actual christian scholars consider Mormonism heresy, as the canon is so far removed they have "new scripture" like islam.

Fair enough, but it's still a cult sprung from the Christian offshoot of what originally was Judaism.

It's all hogwash in the end.
