‘Would you like to hear more about the restored gospel?’
This is a question many of the 58,000 missionaries for the Mormon Church (or the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) ask people worldwide every day. This 14-million-member-strong movement is getting public attention as Mitt Romney, the losing US presidential candidate for the Republican Party, is a committed member.
In response to the question, ‘Are Mormons Christian?’, a recent article on the Mormon’s publicity site says: ‘Yes. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is a Christian church but is neither Catholic nor Protestant. Rather, it is a restoration of the Church of Jesus Christ as originally established by the Saviour in the New Testament of the Bible’.
