I am a Christian

Yes, regardless of what you may have heard, Mormons, or members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, are very much Christians. Just look at the name of our church. It is the church of Jesus Christ. Some have said, and I don't understand this curious idea, that we do not believe in Christ, or we believe in a different Christ. Well, the Christ I believe in, and all LDS members I know believe in, is the Christ of Bethlehem, born of the virgin Mary, baptized of John the Baptist. He died for my sins and rose on the third day that we all may live and return to our God. We worship Him. Jesus Christ, and no other- not Joseph Smith, not any man or woman. We believe in Christ. The Book of Mormon states, "And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins. " (Second book of Nephi 25: 26). I wish all to understand this seemingly obvious yet often misunderstood fact. I believe in Christ, the Son of God, I love him, I worship him, and I am grateful that he has shared his gospel with us. I am a Christian, a follower of Christ.
