Mormans believe that the church as Gods institution died with the apostles. While Jesus was on earth for his 40 days of ressurection, he dropped by some cave in New York and had the book of mormon written on some gold plates in a cave in new york. Joseph Smith recieved a vision from an angel to go get and translate these plates. 12 people saw them. It was then Smiths job to restart the church. So that means that no one went to heaven from ~100 AD to ~1830 AD. Anywho, I asked the Mormans that stopped by here one day about a few passages in the Bible where it says "and 3000 were saved that day" and a few other things that dispelled their entire religion and they never came back.
