When find me a Christian that proclaims the Father isn’t the Father of everyone, then we can have a conversation about how they are a different faith than I.I will tell you what just find one Christian that will agree that Satan is Jesus's brother and a Mormon can call themselves a Christian. You won't find one.
These tiny little differences in faith make a huge difference in the theology.
Did you find me a Christian whom believes in a second Father that was Lucifer’s Father?I will pridict at some point that Satan is Jesus's brother will disappear from the church theology it really interferes with the Trinity belief and doesn't work very well. One day it will be just gone - no we never believed that.
Do you have that second Father yet?The Gospel of John defines Christian belief:
1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was with God in the beginning. 3Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome.
No Satan
No human birth
No mary
Just God and the Word and the Word is Jesus long before anything happened. "In the Beginning"
And is there a second Father?The Christian belief is the Trinity always existed and was revealed to man.
I asked about a Father. Capital F.We have a virgin birth in Christianity no father needed.
In the Christian belief Jesus already existed as the word before birth read the gospel of John.
I *have* thoroughly read the Gospels thoroughly many times. And the Bible cover to cover, deeply studying. As well as long stints studying a variety of different Christian faiths at their own house of worship, with their own literature, asking questions to listen & learn.Read the gospels yourself I don't need to explain Christianity you know exactly what it is and all the information is available to you at all times and you know the theology of Mormonism is different if you actually are a Mormon - you try to portray it as Christianity - where not getting off topic here the beliefs are very different. I am not getting side tracked by you.
There is HUGE diversity among non-LDS Christians. Subjects like OSAS, Armininism vs Calvinism, 5 Solas, the role of baptism, role of priesthood, or even what books are in the Bible.Mainstream Christianity belief is the same except Catholics use the sacraments as a way to grace but the belief is the same. The other Christians call the sacraments works and say they do not bring grace. Of course you have those fringe Christian Churches run by one pastor that goes too far - which also happens in the LDS belief but the mainstream LDS is the same - all sorts of stories out there about fringe LDS groups. So no I don't agree.
Anyways: every Christian (including LDS ones) believes that there is only one Father in Heaven. He is your Father, my Father, Billy Graham's Father, Christ's Father, and even Lucifer's Father. Which technically makes everyone brothers and sisters. But frankly that doesn't mean you are automatically like Christ-- no way!!! Just that the Father is the Father. Jesus Christ is perfect, you are a filthy sinner (as am I). And you couldn't get two more people whom are more different than Christ (the perfectly obedient and only Son of God) and Lucifer (whom rebelled and got cast out).I have no idea what your talking about or how a second father is needed there is only one God the father whom is part of the Trinity.
Who was Lucifer ‘s Father ?Satan in Christianity is a fallen angle not Jesus's brother he was created by God with all the other angels and fell from God grace and was cast out from heaven. The Christian Theology is well know so why do you ask for a father for Satan. This is no father of Satan in Christianity Satan was never a Human Being in Christianity.
See the differences they are enormous.
I didn’t ask about his father. I asked about his Father.He has no father he was never human he was not conceived as a human being he was created by God as an angel with all the other angels - I am not deflecting its common knowledge in Chritianity
