:: False Movements

Jehovah's Witnesses : Watchtower Society

Jehovah's Witnesses consider their organization to be the only true Christian organization. They also view themselves as God's righteous people who are persecuted by governments and traditonal Christian groups (''apostate Christendom''). Witnesses believe that the truths of Scripture were lost through apostacy that occured centuries ago; then God used C.T. Russell to bring to light and restore many of the Christian teachings that had been lost. A few of Russell's doctrines have been kept, others have been modified over the years, and some have been discarded altogether. Jehovah's Witnesses deny many of the cardinal docrines of historic Christianity: the Trinity, the deity of Jesus, the physical resurrection of Christ, and the personality of the Holy Spirit. They also deny conscious eternal punishment for the wicked, the immorality of the soul, and the substitutionary atonement of Christ.

The Mormon Church, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

A cult of Christianity is a group of people, which claiming to be Christian, embraces a particular doctrinal system taught by an individual leader, group of leaders, or organization, which (system) denies (either explicitly or implicitly) one or more of the central doctrines of the Christian faith as taught in the sixty-six books of the Bible. Mormons believe that their church is ''the only true and living church upon the face of the whole earth' (D&C 1:30), the only organization authorized by the Almight to preach his gospel and administer to ordinances of salvation, the only Church which has the power to save'' (Mormon Doctrine , 1977 ed., p. 136). Mormons either deny or pervert every essential doctrine of historic Christianity, including the uniqueness of Christ, the virgin birth, the Trinity, the authority of Scripture (by relegating it to a position below their other sacred writings), and salvation by grace through faith.

THE MORMON JESUS CHRIST

  • A created being: the elder brother of Lucifer Common (one of many gods) and, in some ways, of minor important in the largerMormon cosmology

  • Conceived by a physical sex act between God the Father (Adam or Elohim) and Mary, thus not through a true virgin birth

  • Once sinful and imperfect

  • Earned his own salvation (exaltation, godhood)

  • A married polygamist?

    THE JESUS FROM THE BIBLE AND WHAT CHRISTIANS BELIEVE.

  • Uncreated God

  • Unique (the Second Person of the one and only Godhead) and of supreme importance through time, eternity and all creation

  • Conceived by the Holy Spirit, who supermaturally "overshadowed" Mary, thus a true virgin birth

  • Eternally sinless and perfect

  • As God, never required salvation

  • An unmarried monogamist

    Basically the Christian church and the Mormon Church have two totally different Christ s, yet the Mormons still call themselves Christian, why? Well I think that is Satan s biggest games because a lot of people trust Christianity (unbelievers) and by doing this they get them into their Church and after a time passes by they start telling them the false gospel of Joseph Smith (founder) we have to pray for these people because 80% of them are brained wash and think they are in the truth but, meanwhile they are on their way to hell if they don t repent and get to know the real Christ from the bible.

    ISLAM AND IT'S FALSE GOSPEL!

    Our message to Muslims is that they, like all men, are lost. All are naturally at enmity with God (Ps.14:2-3; Jn. 3:36b; Eph. 2:1-3). There is no good in us that can merit God's favor and there is no good we can do to endear ourselves to Him (Isa. 64:6; Rom. 3:12, 19-20; Titus 3:5). But, being lost and unable to effect our own salvation, God did all that is required to reconcile men to Himself. Christ bore our sin, died on the Cross shedding His Blood as a completely propitious sacrifice for sin, and He rose again bodily from the dead. Believing this testimony and wholly trusting Jesus Christ for salvation is all that is necessary to be saved (1 Cor. 15:1-41, Rom. 5: 1, 6-9; Col. 1:12-22; 2 Cor. 5:18-21).

    The "gospel" of Islam is something quite different. Similar to many modern cults, Islam claims to revere the writings of all the prophets. Yet, Muslims unequivocally subjugate the Scriptures to the "prophecy" of Muhammad.

    Nevertheless, the Word is plain: "God was manifest in the flesh" (1 Tim. 3:16). Jesus is the self existent I AM (Jn. 8:58). The Creator dwelled as a man among men (Jn. 1:1-3, 14). Jesus Christ is the Forgiver of sin (Lk. 5.20-21). In short, the Son and the Father are one (Jn. 10:30). The Lord Jesus Christ said to the religious of His day who rejected His deity, :... if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins" (Jn. 8:24).

    New Age

    New Age is a recent and developing belief system in North America encompassing thousands of autonomous (and sometime contradictory) beliefs, organizations, and events. Generally the New Age borrows its theology from pantheistic Eastern religions and its practices from 19th century Western occultism. The term New Age is used herein as an umbrella term to describe organizations which seem to exhibit one or more of the following beliefs: (1) All is one, all reality is part of the whole; (2) Everything is God and God is everything; (3) Man is God or a part of God; (4) Man never dies, but continues to live through reincarnation; (5) Man can create his own reality and/or values through transformed consciousness or altered states of consciousness.
