When Joseph Smith was kill there was a power struggle by those who thinking was too worldly, but when the quorum of the 12 got togather it was shown how the work of the Lord would be continued and Brigham Young receved the calling.
So as one see that the true Church of the Lord did prosper while other ventures faded into obscurity.
The TRUE 'mormon' church are those who still BELIEVE what is written here (THE DOCTRINE AND COVENANTS -- SECTION 132)and will have their stuff taken by the Gov't other than go against a CLEAR command of GOD!!
The ones AFRAID of the US Gov't, knuckled under to the COMMANDS OF MEN and gave up some precious truth to become a state. (Declaration #1)
