Criticism

Many of the Church's critics like to claim that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is not Christian. This criticism, or exclusion, takes many forms. These include:

Source(s) of the Criticism

  • Hank Hanegraaff, CRI, MORMONS — CAN THEY BE CONSIDERED CHRISTIANS?*
...Jesus Christ, no doubt, plays a central role in Mormon theology. ...the reality is that Mormons believe in a Jesus vastly different than the Jesus of the Bible.

Response

While acknowledging that Jesus Christ plays a central role in LDS theology, this is downplayed by the insistence that "our" Jesus is not the same as the Jesus found in the Bible.

Conclusion

A summary of the argument against the criticism.
