    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    The Old Testament foretold of a suffering Messiah. David prophesied about the crucifixion of Jesus in Psalms 22. Many, not all, of the Jews rejected Jesus as the suffering Messiah because they wanted a king to deliver them, so they tried to seize Jesus and make him their king. Messiah was a...

    What Mormons Believe--according to a Former BYU Professor

    No that does not sound at all right. Their model of the Trinity (and Jane may correct me on this) is like one the none official Protestant beliefs. Where God the Father and God the Son are different than the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is more spirit and less substance for lack of better words.
