21 Questions Answered About Mormon Faith

This is not very deep, but interesting and informative none the less...

As I understand it from reading on "BeliefNet" Mormons accept the entire new testament and add their "book of Mormon". The two taken together lead to a slightly (but significant) different understanding of God and Jesus and salvation. They pretty much reject any Catholic and Protestants teaching and interpretation of the New Testament, but not the New Testament itself (at least not the Gospels)

This is understandable. The Bible gives us a set of "dots" and we connect them to form a understanding of God and everything. The Book of Mormon adds more "dots" so it is understandable that the Mormons connected them differently and get a different overall "picture".

I don't know anything about the Book of Mormon so I can't say if their "dots" are right or wrong or agree with or even contradict the "dots" given in the Bible. I think Mormons accept ALL the Bible, but maybe they don't accept certain books or use different translations, but they at least see no contradiction between the two. Which says something.
