Mormon Dilemma 902 Doctrine and Covenants Better than Book of Mormon

Doctrines of Salvation 3:198; “In my judgment there is no book on earth yet come to man as important as the book known as the Doctrine and Covenants, with all due respect to the Book of Mormon, and the Bible, and the Pearl of Great Price, which we say are our standards in doctrine. The book of Doctrine and Covenants to us stands in a peculiar position above them all”. – Joseph Fielding Smith

Deuteronomy 13:1-3; “If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder, 2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them; 3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul”.

Well if that isn’t a fine how-do-you-do for ol’ Joe. I wonder what his thoughts would be on his nephew’s analysis considering Joe said man would get “nearer to God by abiding its precepts than by any other book” – of course he was referring to his Book of Mormon. See Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, p 194.

As everyone knows the BoM doesn’t reflect the doctrines of Mormonism. 

I do agree with this man’s assessment of the Doctrine and Covenants.  It is indeed a peculiar book; it’s filled with false prophecies, broken promises and threats of annihilation to the US Government.
