Glenn - I am in agreement with you. Now how's that? :-)DAVEH: It seems like the CofC and the CofJCofLDS are two of the very few denominations that respect our Saviour so much that they use his name to describe their Church. Yes, we both believe we are Christ's Church, and have so named ourselves, as opposed to naming ourselves after men or creeds or doctrines.
This is what I have learned about Mormonism. Mormonism put the emphasis on their religion, their works, and not on Christ. This is just like the Church of Christ which puts their emphasis on the church instead of Christ.
Here are 3 common errors that the Church of Christ and Mormonism have in common.
1. Put the emphasis on their religious church organization instead of on Christ.2. Do not openly admit there are Christians in other denominations.DAVEH: I don't know about the CofC on this, Glenn....you are the expert here. However, you are dead wrong in suggesting that LDS folks don't think there are "Christians in other denominations".3. Put the emphasis on water baptism instead of Christ.DAVEH: Jesus placed the "emphasis on water baptism". Baptism represents a covenant we make with our Lord, which is why I believe it is so important. What covenants have you made with Jesus, Glenn?--
