Journal of Discourses 1:63 “I have already told you that the spirits of men and women, all had a previous existence…that among them are many spirits that are more noble, more intelligent than others, that were called the great and mighty ones, reserved until the dispensation of the fulness of times…that they may be Prophets, Priests, and Kings to the Most High God. …
The Lord has not…kept them waiting for their bodies all this time to send them among the Hottentots, the African negroes, the idolatrous Hindoos, or any other of the fallen nations that dwell upon the face of this earth. They are not kept in reserve in order to come forth to receive such a degraded parentage upon the earth…” — Orson Pratt, Great Salt Lake City, August 29, 1852
1 Samuel 16:7 “But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or his stature because I have rejected him. Humans do not see what the LORD sees, for humans see what is visible, but the LORD sees the heart.”
We’re bringing attention to yet another racist statement made by a Mormon apostle to ask the following:
1. Why hasn’t the Church denounced this man?
2. The Lord has clearly stated we shouldn’t look at appearances – 1 Samuel 16:7.
3. Mankind didn’t live in heaven before being born here on earth – 1 Cor. 15:45-47.
4. Man will never be prophets, or kings to God!
God is our King, and believing you can be a king to God means you’re not worshiping the One True God of the Bible.
Mr. Pratt was obviously very confused, and went about spreading his confusion on to the unsuspecting members of the Church.
Don’t forget to pray for those who are still encumbered with the confusion we see in Mr. Pratt!
With Love in Christ;

We have the Bible. We don’t need people like Orson Pratt to tell us what God is doing. We don’t need people like Joe Smith or Russell M Nelson to tell us what God is doing.. WE HAVE THE BIBLE. If any man preaches any word to you that is not already written in the Bible, avoid that man.
People, such as Mormon prophets, were simply men with evil imaginations that had an ability to articulate their imaginings and cause people to follow their evil ways
to believe that the Negro race was somehow born inferior goes against Gods Word. For example: “There is neither Jew, nor gentile, neither slave, nor free, nor is there male or female, for you are all one in Christ.”(Galatians 3:26)
“Then Peter said, I now realize how true it is that God does not show favoritism, but accepts from every nation the one who fears him and does what is right.” (Acts 10:34).
In other words, if you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, God could care less what color you are or from what country you live in.
Just another example of the abject racism of the LDS.
