Joseph Smith was a charismatic type of guy affording him the opportunity to have one audience after another who would listen to his ideas and follow his religious ideologies.
Another gift Joseph seemed to be endowed with was having a plethora of spiritual beings who visited him quite frequently. It seems these spiritual guides had lots of things to share and delivered life threatening warnings from their god who demanded total allegiance to a new lifestyle.
With messages from this god informing Smith to practice polygamy to making sure he denounced the Bible and the cross, these angels of light were bringing a new gospel that Joseph Smith never hesitated to implement into Mormonism.
Here are a few articles that explore Smith’s experiences and the spiritual outcomes of the angel’s messages.
