2 Corinthians 11:13-14; “For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.”
Orson Pratt’s Works, Divine Authenticity of the Book of Mormon, p. 171
Orson Pratt was a prolific writer, and spent the majority of his years proclaiming the Mormon gospel whenever the chance presented itself.
In the 1840’s Pratt lived and worked in Liverpool, England as the publisher, editor, and author of the Millennial Star, a Mormon owned newspaper filled with the latest news of the Church for members in Great Britain who couldn’t easily obtain stateside news.
From those writings, Pratt compiled a set of pamphlets he could easily distribute throughout his travels in the British Isles. The pamphlets were different compilations on the beliefs of the LDS Church, which of course elevated the Mormon Church and its prophet Joseph, while tearing down traditional Christianity. After his death, the book, Orson Pratt’s Works’, was published by the Church and contained a great portion of those pamphlets, along with other writings from the newspaper he published.
