FYI, it does seem to me that by adhering
to a secular, unbeliever’s definition of who/what is “Christian”
we are, in fact, sullying the name of Christ. iz

Subject: Re: [TruthTalk] Is a
Mormon a Christian?
Do you see Jesus & Paul using
your Dictionary definition of Christian?
Under this definition then, a decieved one who follows ANTI Christ is truly a
Christian!
1) He truly Believes he is worshipping Jesus Christ
2) He truly believes the one he is following was sent by God
3) He follows his teachings and example
But in reality he is a hell bound sinner.
Help me contextualize, this apparent contradiction

Following is how my dictionary defines a Christian:
Chris·tian
noun (plural Chris·tians)
1. believer in Jesus Christ as savior: somebody who believes that Jesus Christ
was sent to the world by God to save humanity, and who tries to follow his
teachings and example
If we accept the secular definition of believer as somebody who believes in the
teachings of a particular religious faith, then from my perspective , Mormonism
falls into this category of Christian. This does not mean that they have the
right belief system, or that any of them will be saved. It simply places them
in the Christian category, as a religious sect that is centered on the idea
that Jesus Christ is the Savior sent by God to save humanity. There are
false sects within Christianity, and I think the Mormon sects are among
them.
