September 27 – LDS: Joseph Smith Restored True Christianity. Jude 1:24-25 “Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.”

Oh dear friends, in light of the coming darkness I urge you to hold fast to that which is good and true. Only God can save, there is and there has only ever been One True God. He came here in the flesh with the title of Christ. He has never changed from man into God, He didn’t earn His way to where He is at today, He is the Eternal God.

“To me it is a significant and marvelous thing that in establishing and opening this dispensation our Father did so with a revelation of himself and of his Son Jesus Christ, as if to say to all the world that he was weary of the attempts of men, earnest though these attempts might have been, to define and describe him. Strange as it seems, we alone, among all the great organizations that worship God, have a true description and a true definition of him. The experience of Joseph Smith in a few moments in the grove on a spring day in 1820, brought more light and knowledge and understanding of the personality and reality and substance of God and his Beloved Son than men had arrived at during centuries of speculation. “The Cornerstone,”” Improvement Era, June 1960, p. 425.
I was just reading an article this morning from “Church News”.;Saying next year they will finish the last of the “Joseph Smith Papers”. Apparently this project was started in the 1970’s. Translating and editing a bunch of things J.S. wrote and or written under his approval.
So why has it taken all most 50 years to do this? It’s all written in English…so what is there to translate? And why do they need editing? Makes me wonder what they’re hiding.

Thanks for the info! And yes, it makes one wonder what they had to translate… oh the tangled web they weave…
Good point. Speaking of things taking time…I was reading Nahum this a.m. He is warning Ninevah about God’s coming wrath and their total destruction. And then it happened. You couldn’t find the place for ages and ages but I read it was rediscovered in the mid 19th century. I’m waiting for the reveal of Zarahemla in all its glory….hurry up. With all the modern technology, etc., it shouldn’t be that difficult.
It’s amazing how that happens eh? While gathering notes for upcoming articles about the GC I saw an ad of sorts in the SL Trib w/ a headshot of a guy who runs tours in central and south America.
From what little I’ve read abt the conference the opening line of Nelson was telling when he said they only tell the truth. COUGH, COUGH….
And BTW right after I copied the URL link for notes for the article guess what?
My computer mysteriously crashed. I just spent the last 4 hrs retrieving my stuff that I had just saved…. spiritual warfare 101. Ha!
Very interesting, I’d say. I read the other day that because you belong to Jesus, the devil fears you. You are a super warrior so he causes trouble. He is losing. Our God reigns.
Amen Sandra, AMEN! 🙂
