To Mormons

Recognizing the One True Mediator and the Sufficiency of the Apostolic Gospel

Greeting

Dear friends and seekers of truth,

Grace and peace to you from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

We write not to condemn, but to invite you to look again to the living Christ — the only Savior, Mediator, and Redeemer.

You have a deep desire for truth, for purity, for a faith that pleases God.

Our prayer is that this longing leads you beyond every system of men to the one who said:

"Come to Me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
— Matthew 11 :28

True rest is found not in ordinances, temples, or priesthoods — but in the finished work of the Son, who brings us to the Father.

Christ Above All

Jesus Christ is not one among many prophets — He is the Son of God, the Word made flesh.

He alone brings us to the Father, because He alone is without sin and has offered Himself once for all.

"There is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself as a ransom for all."
— 1 Timothy 2 :5–6

No church, no prophet, no ordinance can take His place.

He does not share His priesthood with men, for His intercession is perfect.

"He is able to save completely those who come to God through Him, because He always lives to intercede for them."
— Hebrews 7 :25

Salvation is not a ladder of worthiness or temple rituals — it is a gift received by faith through grace.

"It is by grace you have been saved through faith… not by works, so that no one can boast."
— Ephesians 2 :8–9

Scripture and Authority

God has spoken — finally and fully — through His Son.

The gospel preached by the apostles is complete; it does not need restoring, revising, or expanding.

"In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son."
— Hebrews 1 :1–2
"All Scripture is God-breathed and profitable… that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."
— 2 Timothy 3 :16–17

The Bible warns clearly:

"Even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God's curse."
— Galatians 1 :8

No new revelation or book can add to the gospel that was already delivered.

The Word of God is sufficient — the foundation laid by Christ and His apostles cannot be rebuilt.

"Do not add to His words, or He will rebuke you and prove you a liar."
— Proverbs 30 :6

Return to the Gospel Once Delivered

The gospel was never lost, nor does it need to be restored.

It remains exactly as the apostles preached: Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day.

"Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures… He was buried… He was raised on the third day."
— 1 Corinthians 15 :3–4

No ordinance, temple, or priesthood can add to His finished work.

Salvation is not by temple worthiness, genealogy, or sealing — it is by faith in the One who cried, "It is finished."

"We have been made holy through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all."
— Hebrews 10 :10

Reject False Prophets and Added Scripture

The prophets and apostles of the Bible testified of Christ and pointed to Him alone.

But the Lord warned that false prophets would arise and distort the truth.

"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves."
— Matthew 7 :15

Examine every book, revelation, or teacher by the Word of God.

If it contradicts the Bible or adds to it, it is not from Him.

"You will recognize them by their fruits."
— Matthew 7 :16
"The Word of the Lord endures forever."
— 1 Peter 1 :25

Let Go of Man-Made Priesthoods

Jesus fulfilled and ended the earthly priesthood.

He alone holds the eternal priesthood according to the order of Melchizedek.

There is no longer a need for temple priests or special offices to approach God.

"Now there have been many priests, but because Jesus lives forever, He has a permanent priesthood."
— Hebrews 7 :23–24
"You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation."
— 1 Peter 2 :9

Those who believe in Him are already priests before God, serving not through ordinances, but through faith and obedience from the heart.

Eternal Life and the Hope of Glory

Eternal life is not becoming gods, but knowing the only true God and Jesus Christ whom He has sent.

"This is eternal life: that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent."
— John 17 :3

God alone is eternal and without equal.

"Before Me no god was formed, nor shall there be any after Me."
— Isaiah 43 :10

Those who belong to Christ will share in His glory and reign with Him — not as gods, but as redeemed sons and daughters who reflect His likeness.

"If we endure, we will also reign with Him."
— 2 Timothy 2 :12
"To the one who conquers, I will grant to sit with Me on My throne."
— Revelation 3 :21

Our hope is not self-exaltation, but eternal fellowship with the Father and the Son — crowned with life, clothed with immortality, and filled with joy in His presence forever.

"When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory."
— Colossians 3 :4

Worship in Spirit and Truth

The time has come when worship is no longer tied to a temple or mountain.

God is not worshiped through secret rites or holy garments, but through the Spirit dwelling in His people.

"The hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father… the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth."
— John 4 :21–24
"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you?"
— 1 Corinthians 6 :19

You do not need temple recommends or ordinances to draw near to God.

Through Christ, the veil has been torn, and access to the Father is open to all who believe.

Freedom and Faith

The gospel of Christ brings freedom, not control.

No one should fear leaving a system that adds to or replaces His Word.

Truth invites examination; fear silences it.

"You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
— John 8 :32
"If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed."
— John 8 :36

You are not betraying God by seeking truth — you are obeying His call to "test everything; hold fast to what is good" (1 Thessalonians 5 :21).

The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit

"Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one."
— Deuteronomy 6 :4

The Word of God reveals one true and eternal God. The Son came forth from the Father before creation, not as another God, but as His living Word.

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
— John 1 :1

All things were made through Him and for Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that was made.

"For by Him all things were created… all things were created through Him and for Him."
— Colossians 1 :16–17
"All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made."
— John 1 :3

The Son is the only begotten — brought forth from God's own being.

"No one has ever seen God; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has made Him known."
— John 1 :18

The Holy Spirit is sent from the Father through the Son to dwell in believers.

He reveals truth, gives life, and glorifies Christ.

"But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things."
— John 14 :26
"When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, He will bear witness about Me."
— John 15 :26
"When the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all the truth… He will glorify Me."
— John 16 :13–14

The Scriptures never teach that the Father was once a man or that men may become gods.

"Before Me no god was formed, nor shall there be any after Me."
— Isaiah 43 :10

The Father is greater in position — the source and head of Christ — while the Son is one with Him in will, purpose, and divine nature.

"The head of Christ is God."
— 1 Corinthians 11 :3
"The Father is greater than I."
— John 14 :28

Thus, we believe as the apostles declared:

one God — the Father;

one Lord — Jesus Christ, His Son;

and one Spirit — the Spirit of God living in those who believe.

"For there is one body and one Spirit… one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all."
— Ephesians 4 :4–6

Final Appeal — The Call of Christ

Beloved, this is not a call to rebellion, but to truth and freedom.

You do not need another prophet, another book, or another revelation.

You need the Word already given — and the Savior who gave His life for you.

The gospel is not lost; it is written.

The way is not hidden; it is open.

The Redeemer is not far; He is calling.

"Come to Me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
— Matthew 11 :28

Follow Him — not an institution, not a prophet, not a church hierarchy.

Follow the Shepherd who laid down His life for the sheep.

"My sheep hear My voice; I know them, and they follow Me."
— John 10 :27

He is enough.

He is faithful.

He is the way, the truth, and the life.
