History of the Church 5:296; “I replied, I was opposed to hanging, even if a man kill another, I will shoot him, or cut off his head, spill his blood on the ground, and let the smoke thereof ascend up to God; and if ever I have the privilege of making a law on that subject, I will have it so.” – Joseph Smith
James 1:22-24; “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. 23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.”
Smith’s words just gives you an all over warm fuzzy feeling don’t they? After all, what parent wouldn’t want their daughter bringing this guy home with her…oh brother…
Are these the words of a true prophet sent of God or a reflection of someone who’s not known Him? Surely, Smith forgot what type of man he should’ve been and either walked away from God on purpose or chose to ignore the truth.
