The term Mormon is used to describe Christians who are members of the Latter Day Saint movement. The official name for this group is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. This word was taken from the Book of Mormon, which is a documented that Josephy Smith claimed that he translated from older manuscripts. Despite the fact that many people believe that Mormon Churches are connected to the Protestant groups, most Mormons do not consider themselves to fall under this category. In actuality, most Mormons believe that there church is not connected to larger Christian denominations. The believe that the Book of Mormon is one of the testaments of Christ. When the term Mormon was first coined, people believed that Josephy Smith was a prophet who had been sent by God.
The theology of the Mormon church states that Mormon was the name of a prophet who resided on the American continent during the 4th century. He was given the task by God to collect the records of the time and store them into a single document. This document would later come to be known as the Book of Mormon. Once Mormon died, his son watched the extermination of their people, and he buried the record in what became the northern part of New York. It is said that the son of Mormon, whose name was Moroni, was sent to Joseph Smith over a thousand years later to held him find the place where the record had been buried, and he also assisted him in translating the document into English.
In the event of Joseph Smith's death in 1844 due to an attack by a group at a jail in Illinois, the Latter-day Saints begin following Brigham Young, who was elected president of the denomination. They took an exodus to Salt Lake Valley, which is located in Utah. Despite this, there were a number of members that remained in Illinois. While the word Mormon is often used to describe everyone that became followers of Brigham Young, it should be noted that smaller movements have been created within this denomination that are separate. Some of these smaller groups have worked hard to eliminate the use of the term Mormon to describe themselves. The reason for this is because the term is not connected to Jesus, and many of the churches feel that this should be the most important figure.
While many people are quick to make connections between the Mormon church and the Amish or Jehovah's Witnesses, the Mormon church is distinct from these groups. Not only is their culture different, but there practices and theology are distinct as well. The core beliefs of the Mormons can be broken down into 13 units, which are described as being The Articles of Faith. Mormons believe in the concept of The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost, which may also be called the trinity. They also believe that men will suffer the consequences of their own sins rather than those of Adam. Mormons believe in the Atonement of Jesus, and they believe that people can be saved if they follow the laws of the Gospel.
