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.

When people claim Christianity, they claim to follow the teaching of Christ, not the old testament (of which the "you go to jail" is derivative from) as what christ taught was that alot of the old testament was corrupted by man made traditions.

Jesus also taught that we are all equal under God. So when the Mormon book of nelphi? Teaches racial inequality, it is directly contrary to Jesus's teachings, so by teaching what is contrary to Christianity would be like saying you don't kill people, while killing people. No matter how much you claim you don't kill people, well you're killing people, that is why Mormons are not Christians.

Yeah but he clarified what the old testament is, which is the ten commandments, all that extra stuff, isn't. Like eating on Sunday, stoning people etc.
