One of the most distinguishing marks of Mormonism is the lack of the cross in any of their church buildings and teachings. On the flip side, the one thing that unites Christians is the symbol of the cross and what it signifies. Mormons reject this premise and reject the idea they’re not a Christian organization.
Their defiance in not accepting that Jesus paid for their sins on the cross is one of the subjects we’re always pointing out to them. The lack of their acceptance should be a key indicator to everyone, especially Christians, there’s something wrong.
We’ve written about this several times and have listed those articles here so our readers can get a fuller understanding of how Mormons feel about the cross and the reason why they’ve rejected it.
The Missing Cross in Mormonism & Why Mormons Shied away from Passion of the Christ
The reaction of the LDS Church with Mel Gibson’s movie ‘The Passion of the Christ’. The Church emphatically told members to stay away because of its ‘R’ rating, but we highly doubt that’s the real reason!
This article and the one above it (Mormon Temple in Rome, Italy) deals with the Mormon temple in Rome and why they have a large cross on the front doors when the LDS Church rejects the cross.
The Cross; God’s Altar for the Sins of Man
A look at what Jesus meant when He used this phrase and what it means for the Mormon
The Mormons can put a gold statue of an angel that Joseph Smith reported to have seen, however, the symbol of our salvation, the cross and the precious blood that was shed on that cross, are somehow forgotten
The atonement of Jesus Christ and the teachings surrounding his sacrifice for mankind are central teachings in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Our Church is named after the Savior because we believe that it is His true and restored Church on the earth. All of our teaching is centered on Christ, including the Book of Mormon, which, along with the Bible are testimonies of Jesus Christ. The Savior plays THE central role for all our teaching, our temple work, our ordinances, and even our music. Please inform yourself…and take a moment to study it out before making statements that are untrue. If you want to know if these things are true, ask God, and he will reveal the truth unto you….just as the scriptures command us to do. God Bless you in your love and testimony of Jesus Christ.
When a new convert comes into the Mormon church wilh very little knowledge of the Gospel and the Bible, they assume they are being told the truth. I was guided by God and found my way out of this cult, and it is a cult, they have changed the bible, they do not honor Jesus and it is Blasthemous to God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit.I learned by going into their history and learning of their so called religion, and I was shocked, I was deceived, the missionaries do not mention that God procreated with Mary and He is the real father of Jesus and God is a man just like you and me, he evolved to where he is today and we can all be Gods, there are many Gods. If you do not believe me go to their true doctrine, it is there!!
