Do Mormons Believe In Jesus? (And Is He God?)

One of the most common questions that Mormons get asked is whether or not they believe in Jesus Christ. Do Mormons believe in Jesus?

Yes, Mormons believe that Jesus is the Son of God, that He was born of a virgin, that He died on the cross to atone for the sins of mankind, and that He was resurrected from the dead.

Mormons also believe that Jesus is the head of their church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and that Joseph Smith was a prophet who was called by Jesus to restore His gospel to the earth.

Do Mormons View Jesus as God?

Mormons believe that Jesus and God the Father are two separate beings, but that They are one in purpose. Mormons do not believe that Jesus is equal to God the Father in power or authority, but They do believe that He is a god.

What Else Do Latter-Day Saints (Mormons) Believe About Jesus?

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints teaches that all people can come unto Christ and be saved if they will repent of their sins and follow Him. Mormons believe that Jesus is the only way to salvation and that He will judge each person according to their deeds.

They also believe in a living prophet and continuing revelation from God. This means that we don’t just rely on the Bible as our only source of truth – we also believe that modern-day prophets can receive guidance and revelation from God to help us understand His will for us today.
