Mormonism

     The Mormon movement was founded by Joseph Smith Jr. in New York, USA in the 1830's.  There are approximately 12.2 million followers worldwide.  Mormons believe that God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are three different beings. They believe that Jesus Christ came to America and taught the Native Americans after his resurrection and that humans were spirits before this life and salvation is returning to God.  In order to receive salvation you must have faith in Christ, do good works, ordinances, and evangelism.
     Mormons believe in resurrection after death, in which the Mormons and families will go with God to heaven, other's will be rewarded but won't live with God, and the one's who reject God after death will go to hell.  Mormons do not drink alcohol, take tobacco, or drink coffee or tea.  Baptism is for the dead and temple garments are worn under your daily clothes.  They are also very active in evangelism. Their books include: The Christian Bible, The Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and Pearl of Great Price.
