Are you saying Joseph Smith started years before it is historically recorded that he did?

Ya got any proof to go with that accusation that he and others lied, or is your statement all I should need? (Get a Grip alert!)

>> Which is more authoritative? God's Word(s) or angels word(s)

Are they going to disagree? (I am assuming God sent the angel, that it is not an angel of darkness we are talking about.)

If God sends an angel to give you a command, does not that angel carry God’s Authority?

I personally see no difference in their authority.

Corinthians 12:3-6
3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.

So, Jesus is the Lord my God He is the redeemer of my soul, and the only Power under heaven by which man (of which I am) can be saved. I confess that I have committed sins of which I am striving diligently to repent, and through the atonement of Jesus Christ only have I hope of redemption that in the last day I may be saved with the just.

So, tmp02, by what spirit did I just testify of Christ? The Book of Mormon also testifies of Christ. Can a work that is from the Devil testify of Christ? Does the Koran, the Analects of Confucius? If not they are not of God, if so they are of God for they are by his spirit.

I ask you your opinion, am I speaking by the Spirit of God when I call Jesus Christ Son of Mary my Lord and Savior?

Satan is a angel of light. Did he show up when the tablets were provided?
