What are Mormons ?

Mormons are a religious and cultural group related to Mormonism, the principal branch of the Latter Day Saint movement of Restorationist Christianity, which began with Joseph Smith in upstate New York during the 1820s.

History of Mormons

The history of the Mormons has shaped them into a people with a strong sense of unity and communality. From the start, Mormons have tried to establish what they call “Zion”, a utopian society of the righteous.Mormon history can be divided into three broad time periods:  the early history during the lifetime of Joseph Smith,  a “pioneer era” under the leadership of Brigham Young and his successors, and a modern era beginning around the turn of the 20th century. In the first period, Smith had tried literally to build a city called Zion, in which converts could gather. During the pioneer era, Zion became a “landscape of villages” in Utah. In modern times, Zion is still an ideal, though Mormons gather together in their individual congregations rather than a central geographic location.

Interesting Fact

Interestingly enough, Lesbian couples usually expertise heterosexual guys drooling over them whereas verbalizing manage to fantasies. Now, let Pine Tree State get this straight [no pun intended]; it’s OK for homosexuals or MormonBoyz to satisfy heterosexual sex fantasies (and entertain North American nation all told varieties of ways that on TV and in movies)… however it is not OK for them to  wed? Gay wedding aside, this feels like EXPLOITATION to me!  And  also the read that sexual practice is associate abomination isn’t even relevant. Is heterosexual harlotry associatelly less of an abomination? Never the less, heterosexual prostitutes will wed just because they’re heterosexual. And (heterosexual) murderers will unify whereas still serving a life-sentence in prison! Am I setting out to hear the words… DOUBLE STANDARD? Is it even truthful for any non secular cluster to impose their beliefs on everybody else? particularly, if the problem at hand could be a warfare relating to Civil Rights… not faith

Mormons Religion Belief

Mormons have a scriptural canon consisting of the Bible (both Old and New Testaments), the Book of Mormon, and a collection of revelations and writings by Joseph Smith known as the Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price. Mormons however have a relatively open definition of scripture. As a general rule, anything spoken or written by a prophet, while under inspiration, is considered to be the word of God.Thus, the Bible, written by prophets, is the word of God, so far as it is translated correctly. The Book of Mormon is also believed to have been written by ancient prophets, and is viewed as a companion to the Bible. By this definition, the teachings of Smith’s successors are also accepted as scripture, though they are always measured against, and draw heavily from the scriptural canon.

Mormons believe in “a friendly universe”, governed by a God whose work and glory it is to bring his children to immortality and eternal life. Mormons have a unique perspective on the nature of God, the origin of man, and the purpose of life. For instance, Mormons believe in a pre-mortal existence where people were literal spirit children of God, and that God presented a plan of salvation that would allow his children to progress and become more like him. MormonBoyz The plan involved the spirits receiving bodies on earth and going through trials in order to learn, progress, and receive a “fulness of joy.the most important part of the plan involved Jesus, the eldest of God’s children, coming to earth as the literal Son of God, to conquer sin and death so that God’s other children could return. According to Mormons, every person who lives on earth will be resurrected, and nearly all of them will be received into various kingdoms of glory. To be accepted into the highest kingdom.
