If ALL Mormons are Christians, are ALL Christians Mormon...?

the devil and demons believe in Jesus Christ. But they, nor Satan are Christians. They are not saved, and I bet they know Christ better then we do.

(Mormons, stop calling yourselves "Christian". You're NOT! you're MORMON..what are you trying to do? fool people? can't fool me.)

Update:

why do Christians reject Mormons? think about it.

    Mormons USE name of Jesus Christ but they are not Christians.

    Matthew 7:21-23

    "Not everyone who says to me, `Lord, Lord!' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, only those who do what my Father in heaven wants. On that Day, many will say to me, `Lord, Lord! Didn't we prophesy in your name? Didn't we expel demons in your name? Didn't we perform many miracles in your name?' Then I will tell them to their faces, `I never knew you! Get away from me, you workers of lawlessness!'

    I'm sure Jesus includes those who say, but we named our religion after you and put your name on our building, and we prayed in your name, and we practiced polygamy, adultry and incest in your name, and we murdered innocent people and LDS apostates in your name, we spoke against Born-Again Christians and Jews in your name, we baptized the dead in your name, etc.... He never knew you because Mormons do not worship Jesus Christ as God, they do not pray TO Him, they do not have a personal relationship with Him which is what the New Covenant is about. Mormons are anti-Semitic, they do not follow the Torah like Jesus did, they are not Christians.

    "...many false and vain and foolish things are being taught in the sectarian world and even among us about our need to gain a special relationship with the Lord Jesus." LDS Apostle Bruce McConkie..."I am well aware that some who have prayed for endless hours feel they have a special and personal relationship with Christ that they never had before. I wonder if this is any or much different however, from the feelings of fanatical sectarians who with glassy eyes and fiery tongues assure us that they have been saved by grace..." " I wonder if it is not part of Lucifer's system to make people feel they are special friends of Jesus when in fact they are not following the normal and usual pattern of worship found in the true Church."

    McConkie Mormon Apostle, BYU Devotional

    March 2, 1982

    --Seeking a personal relationship with Jesus Christ is both improper and perilous;

    --Jesus himself had to work out His own salvation

    --Seeking to develop a personal relationship with Jesus is destined to be disappointing and will create a "holier than thou" attitude

    --The First Presidency has never advocated trying to develop a personal relationship with Jesus

    --Perhaps it is the devil who wants people to try and do that.

    --We do not worship the Son and we do not worship the Holy Ghost.

    "In bearing testimony of Jesus Christ, President Hinckley spoke of those outside the Church who say Latter-day Saints 'do not believe in the traditional Christ.' 'No, I don't. The traditional Christ of whom they speak is not the Christ of whom I speak. "

    Believe in a false Christ and you are a false Christian.

    The first part of your supposition is wrong. The Mormons aren't Christians. Interestingly enough, the Bahai's who want to roll everything into their scheme of things have excluded the Mormons from the Christian church because they say the Mormons teachings are "too different" to the rest of Christendom.

    You need a refresher course in logic. Let me reword your question to show how obsurd it is:

    If ALL dogs are animals, are ALL animals dogs?

    Being Christian is an individual attribute. Membership in a given sect does not make you Christian nor exclude you from Christianity.

    Mormons claim to be Christian because our sect preaches that own must have a living relationship with Christ else Salvation is not possible. True Mormons are Christian.

    No. A member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (aka, a Mormon) is a Christan, but not all Christians are Mormons. Christianity is the main belief system and religion, while there are several branches of it, of which Mormonism is one.

    I am not fooling myself. I believe that Christ is my Savior, and that I have a Father in Heaven who loves me. I follow the teachings of Christ to the best of my abilities, and repent when need to. I strive to be the best person I can be. That is what a Christian is. Whether you like it or not, we ARE Christian.

    I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the Savior and Redeemer of the World, the only way into God's presence. I have accepted Him as my personal Savior. I read, study, and ponder the Bible. What would you call me?

    Would that change if I told you that I belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints?

    Mormons ARE Christians, much in the same way that Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, and Protestants are also Christians. It's a different style of Christianity, but is Christianity.

    I am NOT a Mormon. I am not criticizing Mormons at all here, but I just don't believe the way they do. I am a Christian, I love the Lord with all of my heart and soul.

    I believe it is their beliefs that keep Christians from identifying with Mormons. I have an aunt that is Mormon and talking with her is like running in circles. I am never sure where she stands on the deity of Christ. It is usually a very confusing conversation.

    The Demons and devils don' believe IN Jesus, they just beleive that He is truth. The difference is, that "Christians" act on that faith.

    We don't refer to ourselves first and foremost as Christians; the believers in the Bible called themselves SAINTS.

    Mormons call themselves Christians because they worship Jesus Christ--When it comes to actually obeying Jesus Christ--they are probably as obedient as any other member of any other Christian tribe--& there are thousands of Christian tribes!!

    Actually the name of our church is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints

    And our first article of faith states that we believe in God the Eternal Father and in his Son Jesus Christ and in the Holy Ghost.
