Excerpt from Improvement Era, Vol. 10: January, 1907Whatever J oseph Smith was or was not, he was certainly fear less in all his assertions of divine inspiration. At a time when high religious excitement proclaimed belief in an immaterial God, and in the actual unity of an immaterial trinity, the boy-prophet declared that he had beheld a vision in which the Father and the Son had appeared to him, as two separate beings, and as beings of material existence in the form of man. Greatly elated over this incomparable vision, the young boy hastened to communicate the things he had learned to a distinguished friend, a sectarian min ister, but to his utter astonishment, the boy was ridiculed and called a fool, then maligned and persecuted. Yet he had seen a' vision, and fearlessly he remained true to that assertion.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
