Oh good grief...Semantics...it’s in the quad...but if you’re going to insist on splitting hairs and NOT [as usual] addressing the content TP, I’ll provide the source...

SECTION 129 Doctrine and Covenants [One of 4 Mormon books of scripture]
Instructions given by Joseph Smith the Prophet, at Nauvoo, Illinois, February 9, 1843, making known three grand keys by which the correct nature of ministering angels and spirits may be distinguished. HC 5: 267.

Sorry, not semantics. The poster claimed they had read the Book of Mormon but found mis perceptions. Clearly they were linking the two.

Yes, there is a discussion on distinguishing various types of angels and spirits in Mormon theology. But it is not in the Book or Mormon.

Thank you for the clarification. It’s been at least fifteen years since I read through the books. Memory here is not quite what it used to be.

Overall, I found the books very inspiring and had no problems with their wisdom.
