WARNING!!! NEW WEBSITE DECIEVING CHRISTIANS (AND NON-CHRISTIANS) INTO MORMONISM


This is no joke, and I am not laughing. I found this site and with some probing I knew something was wrong with it. I am thankful for the Holy Spirit in giving me discernment over it, and thought I should warn the flock of Jesus Christ with this abomination on the internet. This site is not only at http://www.studychristianity.com/, but also http://www.studychristianity.org/ and http://www.studychristianity.net/


So why do I believe that this site is deceptive? When you dive into this site called "Study Christianity" by "The Foundation of Christian Studies", you think you are learning Christian teaching, but you are not. You are actually learning Mormon doctrine from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS) teachings.
At the bottom of this site is the following disclaimer:

"The Foundation for Christian Studies (FCS) is not an official organization or affiliate of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and this web site is not an official web site of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The views expressed here are the responsibility of the Foundation for Christian Studies. The official web site of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints can be found at www.lds.org."

Though it may be true that this site is not an "official" site of the LDS church, it is deceptive in making people believe that Mormons are Christians too, without regarding doctrine.


Within the pages...you can see that things do not add up:
  • Quotes from Gordon B. Hinkley, former Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (LDS) prophet.

  • Verses from the Bible are misquoted and are actually from other sources like the Book of Mormon.

  • Teachings on the priesthood, temples, baptism for the dead, premortal existance, among many others that Christianity does not teach as a part of it's fundamental doctrines.

  • By clicking on the "Scriptures" link, you are taken to a page where you can access http://www.lds.org/ site and you will find not only the New and Old Testaments of the Bible, but The Book of Mormon, Doctrines and Covenants, Pearl of Great Price among other works that are MORMON and NOT Christian. These are ONLY official LDS books from there so-called "prophet" Joseph Smith.

  • And many, many more.

Now I know that many of you do not know what I am talking about, without really studying the Bible, and knowing the difference yourself. If you would like to see a detailed list of differences between Mormonism and Christianity, please take a look the homepage of my friend and brother in Christ, Rob Sivulka's website at http://www.mormoninfo.org/. If you have more questions regarding this, please feel free to e-mail me at honest_answers@msn.com.


This is VERY serious. Your eternal salvation could be hanging in the ballance.
