Though you do bring up an intersting side note. John the Baptist appeared to Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdry along the bank of the Susquehanna River, near Harmony, Pennsylvania, May 15, 1829, (HC 1: 39–42.)

These are Johns words:

"Upon you my fellow servants, in the name of Messiah I confer the priesthood of Aaron, which holds the keys of the ministering of angels, and of the gospel of repentance, and of baptism by immersion for the remission of sins; and this shall never be taken again from the earth, until the sons of Levi do offer again an offering unto the Lord in righteousness."

Now, compare that with Malachi 3:3

This will likely be my last post to you for a while. The heresy you posted is worthy of a smackdown, but you no longer warrant attention.

You boldly offered the following fabricated words supposed from Joh The Baptist: "... and this shall never be taken again from the earth, until the sons of Levi do offer again an offering unto the Lord in righteousness." There is nothing that any Levite priest could offer 'in righteousness' greater than Jesus on the Cross, that's why the passage is blasphemous and you cannot see the reality. It is blasphemy to assert as Joseph Smith did that a righteous offering would come 'in these latter days' after Jesus offered up Himself. I will no longer play straightman for your foolishness if you are going to post blasphemies.

You might find this heresy interesting. I’ll leave this one to you.

Wow! My John the Baptist, from the Bible, says that we must now worship "in spirit and truth" and "he (Christ) must become greater that I become less." Not exactly what Smith did with his lies in a Sermon about his having multiple wives (not worshipping in truth), his claim that God is physical (why do we need to worship in Spirit if God is physical?) and his boasting that he was greater than Christ. That boasting goes beyone "bad taste" -- it's a direct violation of scriptural injunction from John the Baptist. It is not something a Christian does.
