While most denominations that are self-identified as Christians are using The Holy Bible as basis of faith and doctrines, LDS use another called The Book of Mormon, said to be written by a prophet named Mormon. He later died, then his son Moroni (asserted as an angel) personally delivered the Golden Plates to Joseph Smith Jr. who translated these into English, thus the founding of this religion.
