	Is Mormonism Christian?
		Mormonism is not Christian because it denies some of the essential doctrines of Christianity, including: 1) the deity of Christ, 2) salvation by grace, and 3) the bodily resurrection of Christ.
		Furthermore, Mormon doctrine contradicts the Christian teaching of monotheism and undermines the authority and reliability of the Bible.
		The Mormon view of the Bible is summed up in a statement by the most famous Mormon apologist: "The Bible of the Old World has come to us from the manuscripts of antiquity - manuscripts which passed through the hands of uninspired men who changed many parts to suit their own doctrinal ideas.

		Christianity is indeed a "big tent" these days, but there are certain lines that must be drawn, and certain doctrines that have always seperated Christians from heretics.
		Mormons, on the other hand, accept Jesus as the Son of God and the Messiah, that it is through His grace that we are saved, and we seek to do His will.
		Similarly, it is possible for all the Christian churches to be corrupt in 1820, and for the Mormon Church to be both Christian and uncorrupted now, since it was not yet in existence in 1820.
