There are biblical gifts of the Holy Spirit. What are the spiritual gifts of the Mormon religion?
drumbum, You have the best answer so far.
Others say they are same as bible, but that is not true.
The bible Holy Spirit is different than the Mormon spirits. So the gifts would be of a different spirit.
Answer
Not kidding you on this but:
A planet that they are gods on
Former un -mormon christians as slaves
Women must wait to be called from the grave by their husbands using their secret temple name.The they get to produce spirit babies
They claim to read the bible but if they did they would know that their BOM challenges so many important aspects of the Bible.Their God and Jesus are not the Christian God or Jesus

What Mormons will say they believe about salvation:
All are redeemed by the Savior's self-sacrifice, from the consequences of the fall.
Immortality comes as a free gift, by the grace of God alone, without works.
Jesus is our Savior.
Why Mormon salvation is not Christian salvation:
According to Mormonism, everyone and everything — all of creation — has been redeemed and therefore "saved".
His salvation gains, for all human beings, a physical resurrection only — not eternal life. Eternal life is not "salvation"; it is "exaltation".
If you ask a Mormon if he is saved (per Evangelical parlance), he will answer yes.
If you ask him if he believes you are saved, he will answer yes. This confuses Christians who do not understand that being "saved" and gaining "eternal life" are not the same thing in Mormon thinking.
It is further confused by the Mormon distinction between "immortality" (salvation to physical resurrection) and "eternal life" (exaltation to godhood).
The Mormons have a saying: "Salvation without exaltation is damnation."
Therefore, a Mormon can, with a straight face, tell you he believes you are "saved", while he also believes you are damned.
Christian answer:
We define salvation according to what we are saved from. We are saved from sin and from the wages of sin — death.
To be saved from sin is to be justified and sanctified. To be saved from death is to receive eternal life (Rom. 6. 22, 23).
Being saved, justified, sanctified and given eternal life by the grace of God are all things which are interconnected in the scriptures. There is no biblical basis for separating them (Rom. 5th).
Seeking exaltation is contrary to the spirit of Christ. We are rather to humble ourselves, recognize our sinfulness and call upon the Lord for mercy and forgiveness (James 4. 6-10).
Why the Mormon hope is not the Christian hope:
It is the hope of the male Mormon to progress to the point where he will be a god like God the Father and be ruling over his own planet. This is "exaltation", and depends upon the Mormon "Plan of Eternal Progression".
The hope of Mormon females depends upon their being married, in a temple ceremony, to a Mormon male who achieves exaltation.
Mormon women married to non-Mormons ("Gentiles") can arrange for a "temple sealing" (marriage by proxy) to a Mormon male after their death. This is to assure that in eternity they are considered to have been married to and produced their children from a Mormon husband so that they and their children can be exalted.
Mormon males expect to produce offspring in heaven with their mate(s), offspring who will subsequently be sent to populate their planet and achieve their own exaltation to godhood and so on and so on …
Christian answer:
The God of the Bible is the Creator and God of all the universe, of all worlds, not just our planet. He made man for Himself and in His image to be in communion with God and enter into the love of the Holy Trinity.
When man fell into sin and marred the image of God in his own being, the second person of the Trinity became incarnate — taking human nature to Himself.
He then did what He could not do in the form of God — He died to save us from sin and death, so that we could come back into communion with God and share the love of the Holy Trinity. Our hope is to be with God, not to be God (Gen. 1st-3rd; Phil. 2. 5-11).
EDIT:Mormen master...read your old docturne...plus most mormens admit to alot of this "outragous"stuff....Is this also why the missionaries about sprint from my door when I ask them this...Is this why your "prophet" claim "I don't know that we teach that" When it's IN your old documents...of course you wouldnt know about it though....Your church doesnt want you to read anything that might make you think about your faith Read the history of your church...If you would actually read a bible cover to cover and compare the BOM to it,then you would see hoe different they truely are..BTW I know J.Ws...you are different yet alot alike.There is no confusion...everything I got I got from YOUR Documents.Also your Jesus is different then a christian Jesus...He said He is the same yesterday,today and forever...he is unchanging...Do you think he ascended then was like"opps I need to go back...darn I knew I forgot something?" No.He is unchangeing.Your documents which are "inspired" by God have had so many changes to them it's not even funny....and no I'm not talking about minor changes...I'm talking 1440 MAJOR changes to your BOM alone,not to mention changes to the Pearl of Great Price,etc.
Note the following quote from the Mormon Journal of Discourses, vol. 1, page 123, made by the LDS Apostle Orson Hyde:
"Remember that God, our heavenly Father, was perhaps once a child, a mortal like we ourselves, and rose step by step in the scale of progress, in the school of advancement; has moved forward and overcome, until He has arrived at the point were He is."
Lorenzo Snow, late President of the Mormon church, made this statement in the second verse of his famous poem entitled, "Man's Destiny":
"As Abra'm, Isaac, Jacob, too, babes, then men--to gods they grew. As man now is, our God once was; As now God is, so man may be,-- Which doth unfold man's destiny. . ."
God has been God since forever,there were no God's before him,nor wil there be any after him...This came from your lituature...
