The Mormon (LDS) Religion Exposed

The Mormons or the Latter Day Saints are a wide spread and influential group that have
members in the federal government, in finance, and in politics. Many are familiar with the
young men who go door knocking, wearing badges stating that they are elders. We will look at
just a few of the things these Mormon missionaries dont want you to know about their religion
and founders.

The Mormon God Was Once a Man (False Doctrine)

Mormons (or members of the Church of Latter Day Saints) are taught the heresy that God
once was a man. This is what the Mormon prophet Brigham Young said about God:

"The idea that the Lord our God is not a personage
[person] of tabernacle [human body] is entirely a
mistaken notion. He was once a man. *+ If he had a
Father, he was made in his likeness. And if he is our
Father we are made after his image and likeness. He
once possessed a body, as we now do; and our bodies
are as much to us, as his body to him. Every iota of
this organization is necessary to secure for us an
exaltation with the Gods."
- Prophet Brigham Young, True Character of God, Salt
Lake Tabernacle, February 23, 1862, Journal of
Discourses, Vol. 9, p.286 (bold added)

Please pay attention to the last part: an
exaltation with the Gods. The Mormons
believe that men can become God. We will
look at that heresy later.
First, the Bible does clearly reveal that God
the Creator of everything had no beginning
and no end, and no one existed before Him
or after Him, who is God. He alone is God.
Isaiah 45:5-6 (bold/underline
added)
5 I am the Lord, and there is none
else, there is no God beside me: I
girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none
beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else.

Isaiah 43:10-12
10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye
may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God
formed, neither shall there be after me.
11 I, even I, am the Lord; and beside me there is no saviour.
12 I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god
among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the Lord, that I am God.

Isaiah 44:8
Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it?
ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not
any.

The Mormon doctrine that God was once a man and
that He had a beginning contradicts the Bible, Gods
Holy Word. In Isaiah 43:10, God said, Ye are my
witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I
have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and
understand that I am he: before me there was no
God formed, neither shall there be after me. God
had no father and He had no mother. He had no
beginning and He has no end. There is only one God.
1 Timothy 1:17 says, Now unto the King
eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever.
Amen.
In Isaiah 44:6 God said: Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the
Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.

This is very clear. God said, I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
There is only one God, the Trinity, which means there are three in one being. This is not a
contradiction.
1 John 5:7 says, For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word,
and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Jesus Christ is the Word (see John 1:1). He is the Only Begotten Son of the Father. This is
important to know. Jesus Christ is the God the Fathers Only Begotten Son.
John 1:14-15
14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the
glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that
cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

The Mormon God Has Many Wives (False Doctrine)

The Mormons teach the false doctrine that God has many sons and daughters from his many
wives. Yes, they believe that God has wives and that He is having spirit-children by them. They
even believe that God the Father was Adam and that Eve was one of his many wives. That is
what the Mormon prophet Brigham Young taught and it is
part of their doctrine, but Mormon witnesses will never
tell you this. For at least half a century, the Mormons
believed Adam was God (1).
"Now hear it, O inhabitants of the earth, Jew and
Gentile, Saint and sinner! When our father Adam
came into the garden of Eden, he came into it
with a celestial body, and brought Eve, one of his
wives, with him. He helped to make and organize
this world. He is Michael, the Archangel, the Ancient of Days! about whom holy men
have written and spoken--He is our Father, and our God, and the only God with whom
we have to do." (Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses 1:50) (bold / underline added)

The Serpents Great Lie and Mormonism

The scripture clearly teaches that God is not a man and never was and that He never had any
spirit children or wives. This false doctrine taught by the Mormons is directly against the Bible
and it is part of Satans great lie found in Genesis 3.
Remember Brigham young said, Every iota of this organization is necessary to secure for us
an exaltation with the Gods.?
In the Garden of Eden, Satan brought a serpent over to Eve. Satan
in the serpent spoke to Eve, tempting her to disobey Gods clear
command not to eat of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and
Evil.
Genesis 3:1-7
3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had
made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of
the garden?
2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the
garden:
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall
not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened,
and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to
the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and
did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and
they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

What Satan (or Lucifer) in the serpent told Eve was a cleverly
formed lie or deception that if Eve were to eat of the fruit and
disobey God, she would become a god. It is true that because of
eating from this tree Adam and Eve gained the ability to know
the difference between good and evil, which is a quality God
has, but they would die for their sin (see Psalm 82:5-8).
Satan (Lucifer) wanted them to believe that they could become
more powerful than they really were. This rebellion against God
is related to Satans plan to exalt himself above God.
Isaiah 14:12-15
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut
down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne
above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides
of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
Satan wants to be worshipped as God. Satan said, I will be like the most High.
Lorenzo Snow, the fifth president of the LDS Church (Mormons) said: As man now is, God
once was; as God is now man may be. (The Teachings of Lorenzo Snow, ed. Clyde J. Williams
[1984], 1.)
The Mormons teach that man can become God. There should be no doubt where they got this
idea from.

Masonry and Mormonism

Joseph Smith Jr., the founder of the LDS Church was a freemason and never left the craft.
Mormon historian Reed C. Durham, Jr. wrote about Joseph Smith, Jr.s induction into Masonry.
"By 1840, John Cook Bennett, a former
active leader in Masonry had arrived in
Commerce and rapidly exerted his
persuasive leadership in all facets of
the Church, including Mormon
Masonry. ... Joseph and Sidney
[Rigdon] were inducted into formal
Masonry ... on the same day..." ("Is
There No Help for the Widow's Son?"
by Dr. Reed C. Durham, Jr., as printed in
"Joseph Smith and Masonry: No Help
for the Widow's Son", Martin Pub. Co.,
Nauvoo, Ill., 1980, p. 17.) (Bold added)

Smith was not the only mason of influence in
Mormonism. Brigham Young, Heber C. Kimball,
Hyrum Smith (Joseph Smiths brother), and John C. Bennett were some influential Mormons
who also were freemasons.
There are many articles on Freemasonry (or Masonry). The truth can be found from the pen of
the influential 33
rd
degree mason, Albert Pike.

Albert Pike wrote:
"The Masonic religion should be, by all of us initiates
of the high degrees, maintained in the purity of the
Luciferian doctrine. . . . Yes, Lucifer is God, and
unfortunately Adonay [God the Creator] is also
God."
. . . . The doctrine of Satanism is a heresy; and the
true and pure philosophic religion is the belief in
Lucifer, the equal of Adonay [God the Creator] ; but
Lucifer, God of Light and God of Good, is struggling for
humanity against Adonay, the God of darkness and
evil." Albert Pike (quoted by A.C. De La Rive in La
Femme et l'enfant dans la Franc-Maconnerie Universelle, p. 588; Lady Queenborough,
Occult Theocracy pp. 220-221.) (Bold added)

Pike, a powerful and high-ranking mason, said that Lucifer is God and that Lucifer is fighting
against Adonay who Pike calls evil. This twisted lie comes from none other than Satan
(Lucifer) himself.
God, through Isaiah, says:
Isaiah 5:20
20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and
light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Satan (Lucifer) is not God by any means. Satan wants to be God, but he will not succeed. Look
again at Isaiah 14:14-15. Satan says (in verse 14): I will ascend above the heights of the
clouds; I will be like the most High. Verse 15 says, Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to
the sides of the pit.
That is the reality of Freemasonry (or Masonry). Satan (Lucifer) is the mastermind of that dark
and shrouded organization. Few freemasons truly understand the reality that masons closer to
the top of the structure know. The same is probably true for Mormonism.

The Call to Leave Mormonism and Masonry

If the reader happens to be either a Mormon or a mason, I encourage you to turn your life over
to the true Lord Jesus Christ of the Bible and seek to know Him. Jesus Christ was born of a virgin
by the Holy Spirit overshadowing Mary (see Luke 1:35). But, Jesus Christ (God the Son) existed
before time began with God the Father and God the Holy Spirit (John 1:1, Micah 5:2, 1 John 5:7,
and John 8:58). Jesus Christ created Mary and everyone who ever lived, including Satan
(Lucifer) (John 1:3 and Colossians 1:16). These people were not born from one of the Mormon
Gods many wives. God created them from nothing. (Genesis 1:1, Nehemiah 9:6, and many
other verses talk about God's creation.)
Jesus Christ lived a sinless life (1 Peter 1:19), died on a Roman cross to pay for all your (and
my) sins, and rose from the dead on the third day, just as was prophesied in the Bible (see 1
Corinthians 15:3-4). He paid the great price of your (and my) sins which you (and I) could
never pay (Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23).
If you believe this truth about Jesus Christ (that He alone is God the Son; that He alone was
born of a virgin; that He alone died for all your sins, that His precious blood alone will wash
away all your sins, etc.) and make Jesus Christ your personal Savior and Lord, you will be
saved.
The Bible is very clear that you (and I) must confess (tell God about) and repent (be willing to
turn) from our sin (see 1 John 1:5-10). If we dont choose to turn away from sin, looking to God
for help, we would be making sin our master. We cannot serve God and mammon (love of
money, self, sin, etc.) (See Luke 16:13).
Now, this does not mean you have to try to remember every bad thing you said or did and
repent from it. It means that when you feel convicted about sin, repent from that sin and seek
to know God better (just talk to God).
There may not be a lot of time left for you. Death can take you at any time. Please consider this
plea and come to the true Jesus Christ for Salvation before it is too late for you. Hell is not a
pretty place to spend an eternity in.
