Testimony of LDS Prophet & Mormon Founder Joseph Smith

http://JosephSmithMormon.com has articles and details about the life of the prophet Joseph Smith.

Joseph Smith was the Mormon founder and the prophet called to restore the Church of Jesus Christ in its fullness in our day. He gave this testimony:

"I had actually seen a light. And in the midst of that light, I saw two personages, and they did in reality speak to me. And though I was hated and persecuted for saying that I had seen a vision, yet it was true. And while they were persecuting me, reviling me, and speaking all manner of evil against me falsely for so saying, I was led to say in my heart, why persecute me for telling the truth? I have actually seen a vision and who am I that I can withstand God? Why does the world think to make me deny what I have actually seen? For I had seen a vision. I knew it and I knew that God knew it. And I could not deny it."

Jesus the Christ in his earthly ministry said "be as, I am" "so that we can obtain the kindom of heaven" he said this to his followers. And you say that the BOM doesnt congruent with the Bible? Its clear that you havent read the BOM, but you also havent read the Bible.

@lds9999 May I ask where Jesus said that we have divine potential? I'd like to know the book, chapter, and verse so I can read it for myself.

Our beloved Prophet stayed strong and faithful, despite the hate he got. He is like the Apostles of old who kept their testimony of Christ and what they say, despited being hated. And they all payed with their lives.

She also needs to wear sunglasses over her other glasses outside, because she has no Irises, Pupils or Lenses. Also all of the eye doctors she has seen have told her that she should still be blind. You want to know why her sight is back? That is simply because the church is true, because she recieved a blessing in our church, and it came true, and all other blessings that have been given in our church have come true. Also it makes sence.

There are plenty of faithful members and members of other faiths who are great scientists.

Just because you have taken science to be your deity does not mean you have to make bad arguments or demean others.

[StorminMormin91]

Well isn't that presumptuous and illogical.

I wonder how you know about science if you can't even understand logic and reasoning as it applies to math and the sciences?

[captainmaveric]

anyone that believes in the book of mormon, and to a lesser extent the bible, knows NOTHING about science

Praise be the man who has communed with Jehovah.

you're explaining it away as well. how do you know the mind and heart of God? nobody does. you are attacking the view from your preconveived notion. Does to be God mean that one strives for power and says, I want to be a God? No, he who will exalt himself will be abased. We must be like Jesus Christ, who became despised. If anyone seeks to be a God of ultimate power, he will fail. We become God with God. and we will be joint heirs. We will receive all that our Father in Heaven has.
