“What really makes me laugh is anyone who had a question on anything got little personalized messages from God thru JS.
‘Oliver Cowdery has confusion on what color shirt to wear, JS goes to the Lord and the Lord’s will is revealed...”My son Oliver, hearken and hear and behold what I the Lord God shall say unto you, I the Lord God would have you wear the blue shirt, yea even the bluest shirt, you are my son and blessed are you that believe...” ‘
Once again, folks: the Book of Mormon...is...POPPYCOCK!
Repeatedly revised rewritten regloofered poppycock.
Even better are the ones where JS got a direct revelation from “god” saying that so-and-so had better let JS sleep with so-and-so’s wife, or they would burn in hellfire.
If you need any proof of just how gullible humans can be, look no further than the fact that tens of millions of people have followed this second rate charlatan.
No!!
You just HAVE to be kidding... Right???
52 And let mine handmaid, Emma Smith, areceive all those that have been given unto my servant Joseph, and who are virtuous and pure before me; and those who are not pure, and have said they were pure, shall be destroyed, saith the Lord God.
53 For I am the Lord thy God, and ye shall obey my voice; and I give unto my servant Joseph that he shall be made ruler over many things; for he hath been afaithful over a few things, and from henceforth I will strengthen him.
54 And I command mine handmaid, Emma Smith, to abide and acleave unto my servant Joseph, and to none else. But if she will not abide this commandment she shall be bdestroyed, saith the Lord; for I am the Lord thy God, and will destroy her if she abide not in my law.
55 But if she will not abide this commandment, then shall my servant Joseph do all things for her, even as he hath said; and I will bless him and multiply him and give unto him an ahundredfold in this world, of fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, houses and lands, wives and children, and crowns of beternal lives in the eternal worlds.
56 And again, verily I say, let mine handmaid aforgive my servant Joseph his trespasses; and then shall she be forgiven her trespasses, wherein she has trespassed against me; and I, the Lord thy God, will bless her, and multiply her, and make her heart to brejoice.
