Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) believe that Jesus Christ is the founder of their faith. They believe that the Church is a literal restoration of the New Testament Chrisitan Church, and that Jesus Christ appeared to Joseph Smith, Jr. on several occassions to restore true Christianity and the authority to preach it. Because of this, Joseph Smith is sometimes called the 'founder' of Mormonism.
