Best Answer

Yes. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon Church") believe that the first and most essential principles of the Gospel of Jesus Christ are:

First, faith in the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We should have faith in Jesus Christ's power to save us from our sins, and faith to follow His teachings and example. We should be willing to take upon ourselves the name of Christ and be baptized in His name.

Second, repentance of our sins. Through prayer, we should confess our sins and ask for the grace and mercy of Jesus Christ's atoning sacrifice to cover those sins.

Do Mormons believe that whosoever believes in Jesus will be saved?

Yes! Mormons believe that whoever loves Jesus Christ and follows him will be saved. Jesus said, "if ye love me, keep my commandments." Mormons believe that those who love Christ will keep his commandments, and therefore while eternal blessings come from Christ, most do not come independent of righteousness.


What are the bad things that they say about Mormons?

Many things that people say against Mormons simply come from someone who is uninformed or has a different opinion. This does not mean that it is bad, but it is often offensive. Those who are uninformed or misinformed often say: -Mormons are polygamist (this practice was banned by the church over 120 years ago in 1890) -Mormons dont believe in the Bible (Mormons consider the King James Version of the Bible as sacred scripture and are encouraged to study it daily) -Mormons don't believe in Jesus (Mormons believe that Jesus Christ is their Savior, just like all Christians) -Mormons are cultish (Mormons live and dress and act just like most anyone else in society. They do not live on compunds, etc.) -Mormons worship Joseph Smith (Mormons believe Joseph Smith was a prophet, just like Moses or Abraham, not a god to be worshipped) -Mormons kidnap, brainwash, coerce, etc (Mormons wish everyone to make their own decisions, and define their standards by Scripture) Those who have different opinions and say things that are offensive to Mormons often say: -Mormons are not Christian (Mormons are not traditional Protestant Christians, but they do still believe in the Bible and salvation through Jesus Christ.) -Mormons are lying (Mormons honestly believe they are telling the truth) -Mormonism is a pyramid scheme (Mormons believe in paying a Tithe and in missions work to gain converts, but believe this is Biblically based and do not seek converts for monetary gain) -Mormons are unbiblical (Mormons believe that they are following the Bible very strictly, but the Bible can be interpreted differently by different people) -Mormonism is false (this is obviously just an opinion, but one that is often offensive to those who honestly believe)

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (commonly called "Mormons") believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the Savior and Redeemer of the world and that there is "no other way nor means whereby salvation can come unto the children of men, only in and through the name of Christ, the Lord Omnipotent". (Book of Mormon, Mosiah 3:17) Jesus Christ is the central focus of their worship. There are many great websites that detail more about what members of the Church believe about Jesus Christ.

Is Christianity based on the life of Jesus?

Yes. Christianity is based on what you believe about Jesus such as if you believe Jesus is the Son of God, that He died for the sins you have committed, and that you can live the way Jesus wants you to live if you ask Him to come into your heart and help you be true to Him. Christianity is the desire to live as much like Jesus lived as possible. It is based on what Jesus can do in your life, if you allow Him into your heart.


What is the major emphasis of Mormons worship?

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormons) worship God our Heavenly Father. Mormons also worship Jesus Christ, the son of God to whom they look for salvation. Mormons pray to the father in the name of the son. Mormons believe that the father has given all power and authority to his son Jesus. The plan of salvation is administered through Jesus Christ. Jesus created this earth. It is he who answers our prayers. He set an example and taught us how to come unto the father. Jesus suffered and died in order to pay our debt of sin. He will be our judge. Mormons worship the father by striving to live a Christ like life. As we turn our lives to Christ, we are saved by his atoning sacrifice for sin. If we are in rebellion to God, we have no such promise.


Are youa Christian if you believe in Jesus chriest?

ultimately, no. To be a Christian, you must accpet Jesus Christ into your heart as your Lord and Savior so that you may go to heaven! If you would like to accept Jesus Christ into your heart simply say this prayer: "Dear Jesus, I know i am a sinner. I believe Jesus came down to earth, and died on the cross to pay for my sins. I ask that you come into my heart right now, forgive me of all my sins, and be my Lord and Savior. In Jesus' name i pray, Amen" If you meant that in ur heart, u r saved =)
