Well, we might have a case of doublespeak right here: When LDS use the term "church" they use commonly accepted definitions, but anti-LDS people feel some need to twist it and re-define it so they can avoid calling a church a church, and can instead replace it with "inc." as an insulting pejorative, in order to poison the well of mature, meaningful discussion.
Not different, really. Just separate. LDS believe the Bible verse that says that Jesus is like His Father in every way. In fact, LDS seem to believe that verse more than a lot of other Christians do.
Is there any chance that the term you're trying to use is actually Godhead?
***uming you can speak on behalf of all Christianity when you say "We believe ___" your claim, when taken to its logical conclusion, seems to lead to the idea that everything Jesus DIDN'T do, the other 2 Persons of the Trinity didn't do as well. So everything God the Father didn't do, God the Son didn't do. Do you see where that reasoning can lead? If you believe that God the Father was never mortal, then you have to believe that Jesus was never mortal either. Such reasoning sounds more like Docetism than Trinitarianism.
