Mormons say Jesus and Lucifer are Spirit brothers. So why is it religious bigotry to tell people what Mitt Romney must believe as a Mormon? If someone said that I believed in the Trinity it would not offend me – because I do. So why does their own sacred doctrine offend them? <\/strong>
\n <\/strong>
\nWhy? because they know Christians consider it heresy and that we know that this and many more doctrines of the Mormons are heresies in opposition to orthodox Christianity. They however do not want naive Christians to know that.<\/strong>
\n<\/strong>
\nAll the more reason we should give Christians information so that they will know that Mitt Romney does not have orthodox Christian beliefs and is in a cult.<\/strong><\/p>\n

WorldNetDaily<\/span>: New campaign debate: Is Satan Jesus’ brother?: “Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee<\/span> has prompted angry denunciations of religious bigotry by rival Mitt Romney as well as an official retort from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for speculating in a New York Times Magazine interview this weekend that Mormons believe Jesus and Satan were brothers”<\/p>\n

More to the point, the official website of the LDS<\/span> church explicitly makes the sibling connection between Jesus and Lucifer a matter of official Mormon doctrine.<\/a>
\n“On first hearing, the doctrine that Lucifer and our Lord, Jesus Christ, are brothers may seem surprising to some \u2013 especially to those unacquainted with latter-day revelations,” says the statement. “But both the scriptures and the prophets affirm that Jesus Christ and Lucifer are indeed offspring of our Heavenly Father and, therefore, spirit brothers.<\/strong> Jesus Christ was with the Father from the beginning. Lucifer, too, was an angel “who was in authority in the presence of God,” a “son of the morning.” (See Isa. 14:12; D&C 76:25\u201327.) Both Jesus and Lucifer were strong leaders with great knowledge and influence. But as the Firstborn of the Father, Jesus was Lucifer’s older brother. (See Col. 1:15; D&C 93:21.)”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
