Who isn’t a sinner? Mormons believe transgressions and sins aren’t the same so be sure to clarify this with them by using a dictionary.
All of mankind has a sin nature. If Smith would’ve stood by his words the Church he organized wouldn’t have had any members at all!

The way I see it, Joe instituted polygamy b/c he could be excommunicated for adultry. Nice try, you filthy prophet of the bait and switch. And your reference above shows his contempt for women, as well.
I am BEYOND grateful to Him who saw fit to rescue me! Praying for your loved ones Sandra and those in my family as well. It’ll always bring me to my knees. PTL!
