Keep an eye out for Pastor Kyle Beshears's upcoming book: 40 Questions About Mormonism!

Hello Saints! My name is Jeff McCullough and I'm a Christian Pastor.
This channel is devoted to fighting criticism with curiosity as I invite dialogue between mainstream Christians and Latter-day Saints. Are Mormons Christians? What do Evangelicals and Latter-day Saints agree and disagree about? Join me as I compare and contrast the lifestyle, culture and beliefs of Mormons and non-LDS Christians.

Rumor has it we missed a few things. Fill me in? What did I miss?

Having a member of the LDS church could've helped round out this discussion. You guys clarify your beliefs well, but no one is clarifying the articles.

I have said this ten thousand times, and I will say it again: Christ paid the price for all men to be saved from physical death regardless of what they do; but Christ’s payment for our sins does not change us despite ourselves. It satisfied the demands of justice and gave us the ability to repent and change, thereby releasing us from having to pay for our own sins. This means we must still change, which requires action on our part in order to access forgiveness for our sins. Christ paved the road to salvation, but we still have to walk it.

They were wrong to say that the restoration of the 10 Tribes is a reference to the Nephites and Lamanites. It's a reference to the Lost 10 Tribes of Israel. The Nephites and Lamanites are only a small part of the 10 Tribes.

HOLLYWOOD actress Dana Kimmell joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints thanks to the wonderful truths mentioned in the 13 articles of faith. Speaking of 13, she was the star of Friday the 13th part 3 but later left Hollywood to focus her life to Latter-day Saint celestial living. I’m so grateful she did. Changed MY life forever…She’s my MOM. I wrote a book about her inspiring story available on Amazon, REACHING FOR THE BRIGHTEST STAR. I hope you read it and are uplifted and strengthened by it. God bless you all. -Kyle Dane

After 35 years being in A member of A Pentecostal Church, the best change I made was becoming A member of the Church Of Jesus Christ of latter Day Saints. The fruits of the church can not be denied.

My biggest question for mainstream Christianity has to do with the number of people claiming that Latter Day Saints go to hell, specifically for beliefs pertaining to the Godhead. In what world is an improper interpretation of the incomprehensible nature of God a damnable offense? Latter Day Saints are certainly known to bear the symptoms of Christian discipleship. Jesus said his disciples would be known by their love one to another. I simply can’t imagine that God would send a faithful Latter Day Saint who devoted their life to understanding his Gospel to eternal damnation simply because their best efforts to find the truth were not enough.

“Not for Adam’s transgression” is related to the baptism of infants. Infants are born innocent and children do not require baptism until they can reason what is right and wrong.

I understand 'speaking in tongues' and 'interpretation of tongues' as speaking another language. Ie. When i went on my mission in Mexico i didnt speak Spanish (other than what i learned from friends on the soccer field) but i was able to pick it up and speak conversationally with people within 3 months. I personally feel i was blessed with the gift of tongues for that purpose.

If you want a comprehensive discussion of the Articles of Faith, I recommend the book "The Articles of Faith" by James E Talmage. (available at most any LDS bookstore.)

The Godhead is not to be confused with or related to the Trinity. The Godhead, to members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is like a presidency, with a president and two counselors/vice presidents. They work together AS one body (united in mind, purpose, etc.) but not IN one body. They are three separate beings.

52:36 if you really wanted to be respectful of Latter-day Saints you wouldn’t name your book “40 Questions About *Mormonism*” the Church has asked that you refer to it by its name: The Church of Jesus a Christ of Latter-day Saints.

As an evangelical convert to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I appreciate the nuances of your conversation. I really think it would have been better to include a Latter-day Saint to your conversation.

Intellectualism puts spiritual growth on hold. It takes great humility to kneel and ask God, our eternal Father, if this work is His. Someday everyone will know.

I'm confused by this video. I don't see what the intent would be if the intent of your channel is lesring all you can about our beliefs. This looks more like Apologia Studios light. Why would you discuss the articles of faith without someone present that understands and believes them? You didn't even explain most of them correctly. That would be like me discussing the apostolic creed with another latter day saint who has only the most rudimentary understanding of it's deeper meaning. There is also a heavy focus on forcing differences in beliefs rather than showing similarities. Division vs unity. This seems like an odd choice and closer to the Apologia way of doing things.

It is important to remember that the spiritual leaders of the Savior's time didn't have him killed because they didn't know the scriptures. Jesus Christ didn't match their interpretation of the scriptures.

Make sure your interpretation of scripture doesn't blind you from seeing new, true, interpretations of scripture.

One of the very first things that drew me to learn more about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was how they treat others. President Gordon B. Hinkley taught “Let us pray for the forces of good. Let us reach out to help men and women of goodwill, whatever their religious persuasion and wherever they live. Let us stand firm against evil, both at home and abroad. … We can be an influence for good in this world, every one of us.”

You need to go over all of this again with an LDS authority. You missed a bunch of things and came away with some incorrect understanding. For example: In number 5. We believe that the priesthood is not something aquired through study or approval by the church. It's like a physical thing that can only be recieved from someone who already has it. I was given the priesthood by my father, who recieved it from someone else, who recieved it from someone else. and so on all the way back to Joseph Smith who recieved it from God...in person. I have recieved my priesthood through a traceable chain all the way back from God himself. Joseph Smith recieved the keys to restore the church from God himself. Every single one of these articles is completely different from the beliefs of every other denomination on earth. God's house is a house of order. You will find the exact same doctrine taught no matter which ward, branch, stake, or district in the church you go. I have seen Catholic churches that don't teach the same thing. I have seen members jump from one congragation to another because a pastor preaches something different from a fellow pastor of the same faith. These articles are like the ten commandments written in stone, never changing, unless done so by a Prophet who was told to by God himself. No other church on earth teaches this.

Eve and then Adam didn't mess anything up. They chose to fall, that man might live. They could not procreate in the garden. They had to learn, by falling, good and evil, joy and sorrow, etc. We are not punished for anyone's sins but our own, IF we don't truly repent. And if we DO repent, Christ has us covered through His Atonement.

Article 8: If God speaks today, then it is patently clear that it is possible that new revelation is possible, for example by correcting traditional interpretations of bible passages. By prescribing hard bounds on what may be considered fixed, belief in sola scriptura is still presuming to place bounds on what God may or may not do.
