MORMON NO MORE
The True Gospel:
Before I trusted in Christ as my Savior, I followed what
Mormonism taught me about getting to heaven. Its gospel--Its message about how to get to heaven--included "all of the laws, principles, rites, ordinances, acts, powers, authorities, and keys necessary to save and exalt men in the highest heaven hereafter."(24) So Mormonism's full salvation comes through a combination of faith, baptism in the church, and works.(25)
    
The Bible's Gospel message focuses on Christ. When He died for us on the cross, we were forgiven and offered eternal life. To avoid any confusion, the Bible clearly explains that the Gospel does not include laws, or ordinances, or works.(26)
     Both gospels say they lead to eternal life, but each has its own definition of what that eternal life is.
In Mormonism, eternal life is the power to attain godhood and have children in heaven. That can be achieved only through obedience to the Mormon church and having one's marriage sealed in a Temple ceremony by the Mormon priesthood.(27) In the Bible, eternal life is entering into an eternal knowledge of and fellowship with God and is achieved by personal faith in Christ as Savior.(28)
Mormonism and the Bible teach two different messages about getting to heaven. In fact, they are direct opposites. Both can't be true; I had to choose one or the other.  How about you?
