"I have more to boast of than ever any man had. I am the only man that has ever been able to keep a whole church together since the days of Adam...Neither Paul, John, Peter, nor Jesus ever did it.

I boast that no man ever did such a work as I. The followers of Jesus ran away from Him, but the Latter-day Saints never ran away from me yet"----History of the Church, vol. 6, p.408-409

Yet Jesus said in Matthew 16;
17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. 18 And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.

Well Jesus, Joseph Smith says You failed and the gates of hell did prevail against Your Church.

Either Jesus was a false prophet or Joseph Smith was.

I'll stick with Jesus.
