Joseph Smith Fake
LDS Prophet
Smith confesses to
Necromancy; communicating with the dead, an Abomination to God.
The Long Con
·
Error rarely appears for
what it really is.
- It is mingled with or attached to truth so that it will gain acceptance; such
is the case of Joseph Smith and the Mormon Latter Day Saints.
·
Joseph Smith even as a young man had a
very vivid imagination. There are documentaries
that state he would entertain his family with stories about people, places and
things on other planets described in such detail that you would think he had
been there.
·
After studying the Latter
Day Saints movement, and the Book of Mormon, I could not help but notice
something running throughout his commentary; I call it the Long Con.
·
A long con is a scam that unfolds
over several days, weeks or months and involves a swindler, sometimes two or even
more, as well as props, sets, extras, costumes, and carefully
selected scripted lines. - It
aims to take something from the victim; in Smith’s case, he is a candidate
running for the office of LDS Prophet and wants your vote and surrounds
himself with very convincing PROPS.
·
The LONG CON does not happen over a few
days, but over weeks or months and the longer the Con runs the more it gains
validity; in Smiths’ case the con running well over a 100 years.
Running for Office
·
Have you ever been around
somebody
who is a “Name
Dropper”, dropping names so you will be impressed at WHO they know
or the PLACES they have been? - Such is the case With Joseph Smith running for
the office of LDS
Prophet. – To any student of the Bible, this is so obvious as he paints a
mental picture of WHO HE WANTS YOU TO THINK HE IS; just listen to his “Name Dropping”.
·
After a revival, in the early 1820’s
Joseph Smith Junior went into the woods to pray and a “Power” came over him that
Bound his Tongue and a Pillar of Light descended upon him and Two Personages suspended in air, called him My Beloved Son and told him not to
join any of the existing churches. – He was told many thing, but to not write them
down.
·
Three years after his first spiritual
encounter; while praying in bed, a great light shown around him. The Angel Moroni; A messenger from God appeared to him
suspended in air. – He told Smith about a Book written on Golden Plates and hidden with them were two
“seers” stones in Silver Bows known as the “Urim and Thummim”. - They were attached to a “Breastplate” to help him translate a
book written on golden plates.
·
John the Baptist a messenger from God
appeared to Smith and his scribe Cowdery and conferred upon them both the Priesthood of
Aaron. – It is not known if John the Baptist appeared with or
without his head which you may recall had been cut off.
·
Around 1829-30, Peter, James and John appeared
to Smith and Cowdery and gave them the “Keys to the Kingdom” and bestowed upon Smith, the
ordination of “The
order of the Melchizedek” Priesthood
with the authority to organize a church.
·
On April 6, 1830, Smith and Cowdery
started a church in Fayette, New York and laid hands on six other baptized
believers confirming them as members of THE ONLY TRUE
CHURCH.
·
In 1836 Kirkland Temple
was dedicated
and culminated with the appearance of Moses, Elisha and Elijah as well as Jesus Christ to Smith and Cowdery.
·
GOOD GRIEF; I will now un-pack all this LSD he is smoking, joint by joint.

being led by Jehovah God through the wilderness just like Moses with his path
lit up with a pillar of light. – It is He that the people should follow.

A Great Light – Smith is like the Old Testament Prophet Isiah who said those who were
walking in darkness will now see a great light. – He is like Paul on the
Damascus Road, when God’s light on him made him brighter than the
noonday sun. – He is a New Testament Disciple
and Teacher like Paul, but with more light.
Isaiah 9:2 – People who
walked in darkness now see a great light

Angel Endorsement
·
Angel Moroni – Smith says an Angel
of the Lord appeared to him, just like the angel that appeared to Moses in
the burning bush. – He is like the Priest Zacharias when the Angel Gabriel came
to him with instructions. - This is validating him as singled out by God
for a special assignment.
·
Bound his Tongue – While praying an Angel made
him silent and unable to speak until the time the Angels words would be
fulfilled, JUST LIKE
ZACHARIAH the Priest.
Acts 7:30 – An angel of the Lord appeared to Smith
like Moses

Moses Endorsement
·
Moses – Smith sees himself as being validated by the
leader of the Hebrew nation and God will speak directly to him just like
he did to Moses, for him to lead his own people.
·
Two Personages – Smith is implying two
people appearing glorified, talked with him just like Moses and Elijah
did with Jesus; this puts him in pretty High Class Company.

He did Moses

·
John the Baptist – Smith is validating
himself as a prophet of God with a visit from John the Baptist putting
himself on par with the greatest prophet of all.
·
Elijah & Elisha – Smith sees himself being
validated as a prophet by the OT prophets.
The spirit was passed from Elijah to Elisha and now to Smith.
·
Don’t write it
down
– Smith likens himself to JOHN THE REVELATOR who had many things
revealed to him, but was told to seal it up; to not write it down.
Luke 7:28 – John the Baptist greatest prophet
28 For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: (KJV)

can now wear as the High Priest in the Priesthood of Aaron.

made a priest forever after the highest order of Melchizedek, the same as

the men in the intimate “inner circle” of disciples closest to Jesus.

The Son’s Endorsement
·
Jesus Christ – This is the final and
highest validation that a prophet could have with the visitation of Jesus
Christ. Since Jesus Christ never
appeared to anyone after his assentation into heaven, this would be the ONLY
time it ever happened. – Even Paul only heard a voice from heaven, he did
not see anything.
·
My Beloved Son - Smith is validating
himself as a son of God, just like Jesus using God’s own words; “This
is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; and everyone should listen
to him.

pleased
5 He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.”

Thoughts

Joseph Smith is running
for the office
of Prophet of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints; the Mormons.
– NYOBS 74.29 - LDS MORMON CULT
·
Using the Long Con, Smith has subliminally
put in the mind of the simple, every possible endorsement available; the Supernatural, Symbols, Angels, Moses, the Prophets,
the Priesthood, Apostles, and Jesus Christ Himself.
·
NECROMANCY is the term used for
calling up and consulting the dead and is strictly forbidden by God. – After
the assentation of Jesus, no one has ever appeared, after they have died,
not even Jesus when he spoke to Paul on the Damascus Road. - When Saul
used a witch to call up the Prophet Samuel, he did not see him; he was
communicating with a familiar spirit; a DEMON.– NYOBS 33.09 WITCH OF ENDOR
·
Satan and his DEMONIC servants
can transform themselves into Angels of light – Demons are neither male nor female; they SHAPE SHIFT themselves as they
wish – They are lying spirits -- NYOBS 42.26 NECROMANCY –
·
The Book
says all
who do these things are an abomination to the LORD and that would include JOSEPH SMITH.
·
The Urim,
Thummim and Breastplate as well as the Golden Plates have
all conveniently disappeared therefore cannot be verified; it’s all
smoke and mirrors, THEY DO NOT EXIST.
·
In the time of Christ, it was common for the
Hebrews to search out the scriptures seeking to know more about the One True
God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, but with today’s technology, folks do not want
to take the time to study God’s Word for themselves, they prefer that someone
just tell them “The Bottom Line”. – THIS IS AN INVITATION TO SATAN. -
·
The Book of
Mormon was
born for those WHO DO take the time to read for themselves; it exists to keep
people from reading THE BIBLE and
learning the Truth.
·
Mark Twain describes the Book of
Mormon as “Chloroform
in Print”.
·
The Bible
does not contain the answer to every
question that we might have, but it does contain EVERYTHING that we need to know to
gain salvation and have a personal relationship with God now and in eternity. -
If we needed more information, God would have placed it in the Bible. - Salvation is Jesus
PLUS nothing else – It’s not about a
denomination; it’s about God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy
Spirit; the Trinity.
·
Jesus said “If
you ABIDE IN MY
WORD, you are truly my disciples, and
you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
·
In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus is teaching The Beatitudes which did NOT show a person how to be saved, but shows
the characteristics of a person WHO IS SAVED. - They are not promises,
but a description. – NYOBS 04.02 – BE-ATTITUDES
- Blessed
are those who mourn - This second beatitude really grabs my
Spirit. - This mourning is acknowledging my own personal sins with a
broken heart before God; sins that are just too deep to conceal.
·
This Word Study is not to
Judge
the LDS
denomination, but to express an earnest sorrow for their blind deception, not
only for themselves, but for those who they solicit as they go door to door,
blindly leading them into this same deception, they will all fall into the ditch.
·
This weeping is Godly
sorrow
and compassion over misguided perishing LDS souls and anguishing over
those that unknowingly follow them. - Read the REAL BOOK; the Bible -
Isaiah 8:19 – Inquire of God for the Living; not
the Dead
19 And when they say to you, “Inquire of the mediums and the necromancers who chirp and mutter,” should not a people inquire of their God? Should they inquire of the dead on behalf of the living?

1 Chronicles 10:13-14 – Saul Died – asked counsel
familiar spirit
13 So Saul died for his transgression which he committed against the LORD, even against the word of the LORD, which he kept not, and also for asking counsel of one that had a familiar spirit, to enquire of it;
14 And enquired not of the LORD: therefore he slew him.
