You want to learn what we teach, what Joseph taught? Fine Joseph wrote a synopsis for people who wanted to start trying to understand us: THE ARTICLES OF FAITH

Bah!!

That is a CREED!!!

Except that then you take those "Interpretations" and proceed to tell me a Mormon what Momrons believe.

Sorry Charlie; I did not. I merely SHOWED you what the Founder of your Religion wrote.

Anyway, The Focus is on study, prayer and then confirmation which May come by feelings, but that is only one of the ways it can come.

Sorry; but that's NOT what your SCRIPTURE says!

Behold!

But, behold, I say unto you, that you must study it out in your mind; then you must ask me if it be right, and if it is right I will cause that your bosom shall burn within you; therefore, you shall feel that it is right.

I could have a lot of fun with a lot of scriptures:
Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a cgift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.
And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
But, I chose this one... Behold, I say unto you, that you are misinterpreting a single scripture, written by a prophet of God, you dismiss other scriptures written by him, and focus only on the one word you think will make me squirm, you have failed to do so, yet again. You wrest the scriptures at your peril.
