More quotes by Joseph Smith, Jr.

The Constitution of our country [was] formed by the Fathers of liberty... Exalt the standard of Democracy! Down with that of priestcraft, and let all the people say Amen! that the blood of our fathers may not cry from the ground against us. Sacred is the memory of that blood which bought for us our liberty.
Joseph Smith, Jr.

Joseph Smith, Jr.
We have not enjoyed unmolested those rights which the constitution of the U.S.A. and our Charters grant.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
Where doubt is, there faith has no power.
Joseph Smith, Jr.
That by him, and through him, and of him, the worlds are and were created and the inhabitants thereof are begotten sons and daughters unto God.
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.
We are looked upon by God as though we were in eternity God dwells in eternity, and does not view things as we do.
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.
