More quotes by Joseph Smith, Jr.
Noah came before the flood. I have come before the fire.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
We say that God is true that the Constitution of the United States is true that the Bible is true and that the Book of Mormon is true, and that Christ is true
Joseph Smith, Jr.
In the beginning, the head of the Gods called a council of the Gods and they came together and concocted a plan to create the world and people it.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Salvation cannot come without revelation. Men of the present time testify of heaven and hell, and have never seen either and I will say that no man knows these things without this.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Love is one of the chief characteristics of Deity, and ought to be manifested by those who aspire to be the sons of God.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Sarah lied about me. I never made the offer which she said I did. I will not advise you to break up your family - unless it were asked of me. Then I would council you to get a bill from your wife and marry a virtuous woman - and a new family but if you do not do it I shall never throw it in your teeth.
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.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
The fundamental principles of our religion are the testimony of the Apostles and Prophets, concerning Jesus Christ, that He died, was buried, and rose again the third day, and ascended into heaven and all other things which pertain to our religion are only appendages to it.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
If there is trouble in the country, neither I nor my people made it, and all that we have ever done, after much endurance on our part, is to maintain and uphold the constitution and institutions of our country, and to protect an injured, innocent, and persecuted people against misrule and mob violence.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Where doubt is, there faith has no power.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
And the angel said unto me: Behold the formation of a church which is most abominable above all other churches, which slayeth the saints of God, yea, and tortureth them and bindeth them down, and yoketh them with a yoke of iron, and bringeth them down into captivity.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
The heads (Plural) of the Gods appointed one God for us and when you take that view of the subject, it sets one free to see all the beauty, holiness and perfection of the Gods.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Repentance is a thing that cannot be trifled with every day. Daily transgression and daily repentance is not that which is pleasing in the sight of God.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
That which has a beginning will surely have an end.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
My Brethren if thou endure thy trials well though shalt be exalted.
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.
I could explain a hundred fold more than I ever have of the glories of the kingdoms manifested to me in the vision, were I permitted, and were the people prepared to receive them.
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.
And thus we see that by small means the Lord can bring about great things - 1 Nephi 16:29
Joseph Smith, Jr.
In your hands or that of any other person, so much power would, no doubt, be dangerous. I am the only man in the world whom it would be safe to trust with it. Remember, I am a prophet!
Joseph Smith, Jr.
