Hi Denver:
There is a great difference in your religions.
You might want to study about the differences and then decide.
It depends on how important your beliefs are to you.
You might want to think about now, instead of later.
Only you can decide this.
Best Wishes.

Hi Denver,
I agree with Slender. Get the facts and make a choice. If you think you shouldn't get involved with someone who doesn't share your beliefs, then don't. Making this decision is better now before children get into the picture.
Have you ever talked about each other's religion? Would she ever consider becoming Christian? Do you share Jesus teachings with her? She may come around. You never know. If you think there is a possibility of her becoming Christian, then great!
All things are possible through love.
Good Luck!

I am a Christian and my husband has become an active member of the mormon religion. They are
Christians but have their own quirky beliefs as
does any organized religion has. When I married
he was not active mormon, that is they key, you can be a mormon and be like everyone else, but as soon as they become involved in their church you will find a lot of pressure being put on you
to become one of them. It is a personal choice
and a lifestyle committment which I have not given into. Unless you are willing to change everything you believe in, end it now before you end up like me--depressed and anxious.

Hi Samatha and all others,

There are many branches to the body of Christ. I think that is what they are referring to. There may be are denominational differences. I am sure they all confess Christ as their savior and that makes the individual Christian. The physical church structure and administration as well doctrines are the differences. I hope this helps. if not, I'll just remove it and stay out of it.

BTW, I am glad you did not lose heart, and decided to use the forum. I had mentioned to you privately, and on the forum, if there is anything that you are having a hard time with, I want you to know that I will be here for you to help with any encouragement that I may be able to give you. I mean it.


All for His praise, glory and the joy it gives Him.

Hugs, In His Love >Big Grin<

I think different people define being a Christian in different ways. A lot of people call themselves a Christian because they go to Church. I see a Christian as a follower and seeker of God and the Messiah He sent in the form of man, Jesus. So to some on the outside, Christians and Mormons may seem very much the same but if you
google

the differences it you will find that the teaching, theology and idealism are extremely different. I'm not here to debate but just to state that they are very, very different and the Mormon church is not very accepting of non-Mormons so please tread carefully.

good for you for recognizing an important concept for a potential spouse. look in your concordance for your bible and see what God says about being equally yolked. or ask your pastor about this too.
there is a great book called "so, what's the difference" by Ridenour. its a great summary of 20 worldviews, faiths and comparisons.
beliefs impact daily decisions, behaviors and marriage.
