More quotes by Joseph Smith, Jr.
We ought at all times to be very careful that high-mindedness shall never have place in our hearts.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
All men are, or ought to be free, possessing unalienable rights, and the high and noble qualifications of the laws of nature and of self-preservation, to think, and act, and say as they please, while they maintain a due respect to the rights and privileges of all other creatures, infringing upon none.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
A man filled with the love of God is not content with blessing his family alone, but ranges through the whole world, anxious to bless the whole human race.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Where doubt is, there faith has no power.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
I told the brethren that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book.
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.
An angel of God never has wings.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Whatever God requires is right, no matter what it is, although we may not see the reason there of until all of the events transpire.
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.
Don't be limited in your views with regard to your neighbor's virtue...You must enlarge your soul towards each other.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
One of the grand fundamental principles of Mormonism is to receive truth, let it come from whence it may.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
The things of God are of deep import and time, and experience, and careful and ponderous and solemn thoughts can only find them out.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Shall we not go on in such great a cause?
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.
Truth is Mormonism. God is the author of it.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
There are so many fools in the world for the devil to operate upon, it gives him the advantage oftentimes.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Noah came before the flood. I have come before the fire.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
If men do not comprehend the character of God, they do not comprehend themselves.
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.
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.
