The purpose of this study is to ask, what do Mormons teach
on the doctrine of God? We will look
into the doctrine of God in Mormon theology.
Here is a quote on Mormon theology from a Mormon source,
“How many Gods there are, I do not
know. But there never was a time when
there were not Gods” (Brigham Young, Journal
of Discourses, 7:333).
Here is what the Bible teaches on the doctrine of God. You will notice that it teaches that there is
one God and not many gods.

out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.

always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
