Since this subject has been paraded on cable TV - especially in relation to popular candidates' beliefs as they posture it in relation to their competency to be president, below is a sketch pad of a summary of 'Bible Expert' (The Bible Man, the now deceased Walter Martin,) as penned in his book, "THE KINGDOM OF THE CULTS."
HERE IS THE BRIEFEST OF SUMMARIES OF THE NATURE OF JESUS AS SEEN BY MORMONS:
{{Do your own research and only take the below as a STARTING POINT!}}
MORMON BELIEFS:
THE EARTH IS ONE OF SEVERAL INHABITED PLANETS RULED OVER BY gods& goddesses, WHO WERE AT ONE TIME POLYTHEISTIC IN ITS CORE....
THE TRINITY consists of three gods born born in different times and places; the Father begot the Son and the Holy Ghost (Spirit) through a goddess wife in heaven....
Humankind is the same species as God. God begot all humans in heaven as offspring of his wife or wives, who were sent to earth for their potential exaltation to godhead....
Salvation is resurrection, but exaltation to godhead, for eternal life in the celestial heaven, must be earned through self-meriting works....

As any Biblical Christian can clearly see, these above statements in no wise reflects the HOLY WORD OF THE ONE TRUE GOD...PERIOD! For any politician to say that this is NOT a cult, I WOULD SERIOUSLY WONDER WHAT WOULD BE IN THAT PERSON'S EYES?!?
