Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that Israel is the ancestral home of the Jewish people. Mormons believe that the creation of the political state of Israel and the returning of Jews to that nation, as well as the political and religious unrest that takes place there, are in fulfillment of Biblical prophesy and a sign of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ drawing nearer.

Do mormons believe they are to inherit israel as the chosen ones?
No. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that the Jews are to inherit Israel, as promised in the Bible. Mormons believe that Zion, the New Jerusalem, will be established in the United States. During the Millennial Reign of Jesus Christ, He will rule from both centers (Israel and Zion). As the Bible states, "The law shall go forth from Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem." (Micah 4:2) Mormons believe that they will establish and inherit Zion as the chosen people of the last generation.

Not all Jews hold a belief in a Messiah, but those who do believe he will lead the Jews back to Israel and re-establish the Ancient Temple sacrifices. He will be the next king, and his descendents will be the future kings of Israel.
Are Jewish and Mormon the same?
No, definately not. There are many differences, but the biggest is that Mormons believe that Jesus Christ was the Messiah and Jews do not. They do have some similarities, mostly stemming from their shared belief in the Old Testament books. Mormons put more emphasis on the Old Testament than most Christian churches, which can make them more similar to Jews on some issues. Additionally, there are about the same number of Mormons as there are Jews worldwide (about 14 million).
Why do Jews believe that the commandments can't be followed outside of Israel?
We do not believe that the commandments can't be followed outside of Israel!! Jews all over the world follow the commandments! There are some commandments we can't follow such as those pertaining to animal sacrifice because we do not have a Temple in Jerusalem. But other commandments are followed by Jews from Argentina to Zimbabwe!
