Is Mormonism Christian?: A Comparison of Mormonism and Historic Christianity

The Bible teaches and orthodox Christians through the ages have believed that there is only one True and Living God and apart from Him there are no other Gods (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 43:10,11; 44:6,8; 45:21,22; 46:9; Mark 12:29-34). By contrast, the Mormon Church teaches that there are many Gods (Book of Abraham 4:3ff), and that we can become gods and goddesses in the celestial kingdom. It also teaches that those who achieve godhood will have spirit children who will worship and pray to them, just as we worship and pray to God the Father.

2012 Patriarchal Encyclical for Pascha of His All-Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew

If Christ’s Resurrection referred to Himself, then its significance for us would be negligible. The Church proclaims, however, that, the Lord did not arise alone. Together with Himself, He also resurrected all people.
