What is Community of Christ?
[[File:USVA headstone emb-20.svg|197px|right]] The '''Community of Christ''' is a [[Mormonism|Mormon]] movement. From 1872 to 2001, it was known as '''Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (RLDS)'''. It was founded in the 1860s. It did not recognise [[Brigham Young]] as a Prophet, but instead followed Joseph Smith III, the son of the founder of Mormonism, [[Joseph Smith]]. Unlike the followers of Young who went to [[Utah]] they remained were they were, in the [[Midwestern United States]], mainly in [[Missouri]]. A number of court cases established this Church as the follower of law of the church established by Smith. for this reason it has the most [[manuscript]]s and the oldest Temple. In general, their beliefs are closer to mainline [[Protestantism|Protestant]] Christianity. Unlike other Latter-day Saints movements, they have a classic view of the [[Trinity]]. Their [[baptism]] is therefore recognised as a valid [[Christianity|Christian]] one. {{religion-stub}} {{Latter Day Saint movement}} [[Category:Mormonism]] [[Category:1860 establishments in the United States]] [[Category:Christian denominations]] [[Category:Christian organizations based in the United States]]
