Stake Conference, Maricopa Stake, December 7, 1913; “I know that God is a being with body, parts, and passions and that His Son is in His own likeness, and that man is created in the image of God. The Son, Jesus Christ, grew and developed into manhood the same as you or I, as likewise did God, His Father grow and develop to the Supreme Being that He now is.
Man was born of woman; Christ the Savior, was born of woman and God, the Father, was born of woman. Adam, our earthly parent, was also born of woman into this world, the same as Jesus and you and I.” – Joseph F. Smith, quoted in Deseret Evening News, December 27, 1913, Sec. III, p. 7; Also Deseret News: Church Section, September 19, 1936, p. 2, 8, as well as Doctrinal Commentary on the Pearl of Great Price, p. 179, by Hyrum Andrus.
