Yes. But let's be clear.
Marcion was a Christian, as well as Arius, etc.
In 1st John 2:19, "they" were Christians.
Heretical Christians.

@JesusSaves1500 Mark Twain described it as "chloroform in print"
I have read it.
HERE is a great video summary by Brother JAKE.

Mormon President Gordon B. HInckley said of other Christians: "The Christ of whom they speak is not the Christ of whom I speak." (June 4, 1998)
Though Mormon teachers use the same terms as Christians, the definitions are profoundly different, e.g. for them "Scripture" includes the Bible plus the Book of Mormon, and the Book of Abraham, etc. Mormon doctrine is heresy.
That said, I do not doubt that there are some Mormons who trust in the Christ of the Bible rather than in the god of Joseph Smith. Like many everyday Christians, they simply are ignorant of what their church teaches.

@BasedMikeLee@BlkRobeRegmnt76 Yes, I have.
A long read. Get started by letting Brother Jake summarize it for you, here (youtube video).

@JustinPetersMin@BasedMikeLee And let us note that the Book of Mormons does contain truth. It quotes a dozen chapters of Isaiah from the KJV.
And sayings of Jesus.

@triggerpod@paleochristcon The absolute absurdity and utter distortion of Scripture as he quotes Jesus on "buy a sword"! That is worse than sophomoric. https://t.co/MSNeR53HBT
@afringedgentian@WassonWatch We have not seen a just war in this century.
Made clear to any military officer is that "you serve as an instrument of American foreign policy."
And Christian pacifism is the Biblical position, historically speaking.

@Murray_2nd How illiterate you are of the history of the Church.
And there has never been a just war in my lifetime.
What is made clear to you as a military officer is that (quote) "you serve as an instrument of American foreign policy."
