Noah/Gabriel
“To play his part in the great restoration of all things, Gabriel came in modern times and conferred the keys of his dispensation upon Joseph Smith. As with other angelic ministrants to this earth, Gabriel also spent his mortal probation here. He is Noah, the one who stands next to Michael or Adam in the priesthood hierarchy. (Teachings, p. 157.)” Mormon Doctrine, 301.

God – Heavenly Father/elohim
As stated before, the Mormon god is an exalted man.
Hyrum L. Andrus said this in his book God and Man in Eternal Union, pg. 1; “The revelations of Joseph Smith support this view. “If the veil were rent today, and the great God who holds this world in its orbit, and who upholds all worlds and all things by his power, was to make himself visible,” the Prophet said, “you would see him like a man in form—like yourselves in all the person, image, and very form as man.””

Creation
The book of Moses in the Pearl of Great Price is the account of the creation. Moses 2:1-31 is much like the account of the creation as told in the Bible. Now if we skip over to Abraham chapters 4 and 5 in the Pearl of Great Price we see an entirely different story of the creation. Here it tells the Mormon that the ‘Gods’ created the earth and then created man. This is just one example of how the Mormons became confused.

Child of God
The Mormon believes they are the literal offspring of God. They believe that in the pre-existence they were spiritually begotten through a sexual union of Heavenly Father and a Heavenly Mother. They believe that all spirits, Jesus and Lucifer included, are literally brothers and sisters thus making us all a child of God.

Authority
“The claim of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to be the only true and living church on the earth is centered on the concept of authority. The LDS belief has been well stated by President Joseph F. Smith: “As to the question of authority, nearly everything depends upon it. No ordinance can be performed to the acceptance of God without divine authority. Authority is a divine commission or calling from God….The name given to this kind of authority in the scriptures is priesthood (Heb. 7:11-12, 14, 24; 1 Pet. 2:5, 9; D&C 84:107).” Encyclopedia of Mormonism, pg. 88.

Just something to think about…
Mormon Terminology: Gentile
To the Mormon, a Gentile is anyone who is not a Mormon, this includes the Jews.
“Having in mind the principle that Gentiles are adopted into the lineage of Israel when they accept the gospel, and that those who fail to believe the truths of salvation (no matter what their lineage) lose any preferential status they may have had, it is not inappropriate in our day to speak of members of the Church as Israelites and unbelievers as Gentiles.” Mormon Doctrine, pg. 311.
“For Latter-day Saints, “Gentile” generally means “not Latter-day Saint,”.” Encyclopedia of Mormonism, pg. 541.
I asked a good friend of mine who is a Messianic Jew how she felt about the statement that she is considered a Gentile by the Mormon Church. The look on her face said it all as she turned around and walked away without saying a word…

Word Studies with the Mormon
Don’t take our word for it, what does the Bible say?
The first thing to keep in mind when witnessing is your heart. Where is it at in regards to this Mormon person? You will never ‘win’ the argument with them by ‘proving’ that they’re wrong. Your proof was shown in His resurrection. It really happened, i.e., credible eyewitness accounts.
