Exodus 15:2; “The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.”
Acts 7:55,56; “But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God 56 And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.”

His exaltation predicted as Yeshua … Oh Yeshua! Our love for Him grows exponentially as we learn more about Him and His rightful position in the heavens with God. At some point the LDS Church will fall to their knees to either worship or acknowledge He’s exalted. For now ask a Mormon to define exaltation. Ask why the Mormon Jesus was exalted if He wasn’t practicing polygamy. If they say He was a polygamist ask for verification, i.e. biblical proof.
You’ll notice in their version of exaltation there’s no mention of Jesus at all. Exaltation is synonymous with true salvation in Mormonism and there is no true salvation without polygamy.
The transliteration for Lord is yāh. It’s a contracted form of Yehovah, a sacred name for God.
The transliteration for Jesus is Iēsous which signifies it’s of Hebrew origin. In Hebrew it is Yehôwshûwaʿ, meaning Yehovah saved. The English equivalent is Joshua.

Mormon Doctrine, p 670; “Salvation in its true and full meaning is synonymous with exaltation or eternal life and consists in gaining an inheritance in the highest of the three heavens within the celestial kingdom. With few exceptions this is the salvation of which the scriptures speak. It is the salvation which the saints seek.” – Bruce McConkie
