Christian Leader: Romney's Mormon Faith Could Hinder Presidential Bid
in response to reader comment: Romney thinks he is an embryo god...

Mitt Romney actually believes in salvation through Jesus Christ only. All Mormons do. The misunderstanding about this comes because of semantics. We understand the Bible to say; "(God) hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began," but we also know that unless the works of which God hath called us to do are performed in us, then we have actually not the true faith of Christ in us, but a false faith. This is no different from Mitt Romney's faith and belief, or that of any Mormon who understands what his religion teacheth. Let's be a little kinder, a little more understanding of others, a little more forgiving, for who knows when we will have need to be forgiven ourselves.
