Best Answer

Mormons believe Jesus Christ is the Lord and Savior, but their belief about how one gets to Heaven is different from mainstream Christianity, as well as their belief about what exactly Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection accomplished for us.

Should the world fully understand that while god is a fabulous concept it is the belief in an earthly leader Joseph Smith and not Jesus that sets Mormonism apart from the entire world way way apart?

Well, Mormons do not believe in "Joseph Smith and not Jesus". Mormons believe that Jesus Christ is the Savior and Redeemer of the world. They believe that Jesus is the Son of God, and that we must accept Him as our Savior to be saved. Mormons believe that Joseph Smith was a prophet, just like Moses, Abraham, or Isaiah. He in no way replaces Jesus Christ, nor is he an equal of Jesus. Joseph Smith was simply a representative of Christ on the earth. Most religions, even Christian religions, have some sort of earthy leader or founder, whether living or dead. This is not unique to Mormonism. Most who know anything of Mormonism understand that the belief in Joseph Smith as a prophet is what sets Mormons apart from the rest of Christianity.

What role does Jesus Christ play in mormonism?

Jesus Christ is the central focus of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church). He is everything. Mormons believe that Jesus Christ is the founder, leader, and head of their church through revelation and direct visitation to living prophets. Mormons believe that Jesus Christ is the Savior and Redeemer of all mankind, the co-creator with the Father, and the Only Begotten Son of God. It is because of Jesus Christ that we have life and that we are resurrected to eternal life. It is through Jesus Christ's grace and power that we are aided through trials and cleansed from sin. Mormons believe that the purpose of this life is to become more like Him by emulating His example.
