That quote from Smith which he claimed occurred in his encounter...is sometimes referred to as “Serpent talk” by any who have the spirit of Christ within them to discern such language..... Which lends me to say that what ever he conjured in his mind and/or actually believed that he saw, was certainly not of God nor did he have the spirit of Christ who would have never accepted that language...Smith did so and in doing that revealed the state of his own fallen condition. He got hooked by believing the “teachings” of demons and thereafter built his following around this experience.

It is very dangerous for anyone to rest their faith in what they feel or the experiences they encounter from the spiritual realm... no matter how strong they are.....they must be examined according to Gods word and even then they are quite often occurring from other reasons than an actual encounter. Jesus many times has warned us that even in these last days to expect teachings of demons and Antichrist's who will promote them....we are warned and warned not to heed these......

We do walk by faith and not sight, for the world today has many ways of deceiving ones mind to believe what is not real....as Christians we need to remmeber that these will grow more prevelant even to that of attempting to deceive the elite in order to cause us to be uneffective for the Lord.
