More quotes by Joseph Smith, Jr.

I never thought it was right to call up a man and try him because he erred in doctrine, it looks too much like methodism and not like Latter day Saintism. Methodists have creeds which a man must believe or be kicked out of their church. I want the liberty of believing as I please, it feels so good not to be tramelled.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Shall we not go on in such great a cause?
Joseph Smith, Jr.
I never told you I was perfect but there is no error in the revelations which I have taught.

If I lose my life in a good cause I am willing to be sacrificed on the altar of virtue, righteousness and truth, in maintaining the laws and Constitution of the United States, if need be, for the general good of mankind.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Blessed be the memory of those few brethren who contended so strenuously for their constitutional rights and religious freedom, against such an overwhelming force of desperadoes!
Joseph Smith, Jr.
One of the grand fundamental principles of Mormonism is to receive truth, let it come from whence it may.

. . . meekness,love, purity, these are the things that should magnify us.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
We may continue to expect the enjoyment of all the blessings of civil and religious liberty, guaranteed by the Constitution. The citizens of Illinois have done themselves honor, in throwing the mantle of the Constitution over a persecuted and afflicted people.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
If you do not accuse each other, God will not accuse you. If you have no accuser you will enter heaven. What many people call sin is not sin I do many things to break down superstition, and I will break it down.
