Elohim (el-o-heem) Hebrew:
"gods." The term, which is plural, is also uses for Adonai and
Jehovah. Latter-day Saints use the term as the exalted name-title of God the
Father. (Missionary Training Manual: For Use in the Jewish Proselyting

4. If you are asked, "Are
you Christians?" answer: "We are Mormons. We are neither Catholic nor
Protestant. We are here for the purpose of telling you and your family that God
has again spoken and that there is a living prophet upon the earth." If
the contact persists, say, "As we said, we are Mormon elders. We do not
believe in the Christ of the Crusades or the Christ of the Spanish Inquisition
which were responsible for the persecution of the Jews. Nor do we believe in
the Christ of the "Christians" who massacred the Mormon people and
burned them out of their homes in the middle of winter. But we do accept the
humble Jewish carpenter of Nazareth as the true Messiah, and we bear testimony
that he is the Christ." (Missionary Training Manual: For Use in the
Jewish Proselyting Program [Salt Lake City: The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints, 1978, 1979], 31)
