Hello Anon, its all about being faithful to what Jesus said we are to do. He said go and make disciples of all nations teaching them to obey what I commanded you.
The Mormon Church teaches a totally different gospel to what Christ and the rest of the bible teaches. In Galatians 1:8 Paul speaks very harshly against this. So showing Mormons the truth of the biblical gospel is the most loving action a Christian could do as it brings them to know Christ for real.
However they are also very free to "get on with it" if they wish.

Enjoyed this interview , thank you! I was raised mormon and came to know Christ when I was 19. I had a friend in high school who was passionate about the lord and gently taught me about true Christianity without attacking the doctrine that had be so ingrained in me. And then I met my husband who was Protestant and continued to teach me to trust the bible and judge everything by Gods word not by a "burning bosom" or other such "spiritual confirmation". The Mormon people hold a special place in my heart and I pray that the Lord can use me to help them come to the true Christ.
