Joseph Smith Biography Timeline Prophecies ... Home Joseph Smith Born on December 23, 1805, in Sharon, Vermont, to Joseph and Lucy Mack Smith, Joseph Smith Jr. grew up on a series of tenant farms in Vermont, New Hampshire, and New York. Though in his youth Joseph was largely deprived of a formal education, he was "instructed in reading, writing, and the ground rules of arithmetic." Joseph's mother said that he was often "given to meditation and deep study." Affected by the great religious excitement taking place around his home in Manchester, New York, in 1820, fourteen-year-old Joseph was determined to know which of the many religions he should join. He encountered a passage in the Bible instructing any who lacked wisdom to "ask of God" (James 1:5). Early one morning in the spring of 1820, Joseph went to a secluded woods to ask God which church he should join. According to his account, while praying Joseph was visited by two "personages" who identified themselves as God the Father and Jesus Christ. He was told not to join any of the churches. In 1823, Joseph Smith said he was visited by an angel named Moroni, who told him of an ancient record containing God's dealings with the former inhabitants of the American continent. In 1827, Joseph retrieved this record, inscribed on thin golden plates, and shortly afterward began translating its words by the "gift of God."

4. Joseph Smith As A Prophet Questions whether the founder of the Mormon Church was really a prophet of God. Discusses the many prophesies that have yet to be fulfilled. rest is based, that the founder of their church, Joseph Smith Jr. (18051844) was literally a prophet of God, if not the http://www.exmormon.org/prophet.htm

JOSEPH SMITH AS A PROPHET The Latter-Day Saints ("Mormons") hold as among the first and most important principles of their religion, on which all the rest is based, that the founder of their church, Joseph Smith Jr. (1805-1844) was literally a prophet of God, if not the greatest prophet ever to have lived on the earth. Was he? Examine the record for yourself: Test of a prophet: "And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord hath not spoken? When a prophet speaketh in the name of the Lord, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the Lord hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously..." Deut 18:21-22 The fulfillment of a prophecy cannot be delayed long. "They ... say, The vision that he seeth is for many days to come, and he prophesieth of the times that are far off. Therefore say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God: There shall none of my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord God." Ezek 12:21-28 See also Isaiah 8:20 and 9:15 on false prophets: if what a prophet says is different from the law, it is because there is "no light in" him; a prophet that teaches lies will be "cut off."

PEOPLE A-C D-H I-R ... Young, Brigham Joseph Smith As founder of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, popularly known as the Mormons, Joseph Smith stands as one of the most charismatic and influential religious figures in American history. Smith was born in 1805 in Sharon, Vermont, into a hard-pressed farm family that eventually included ten children. The Smiths moved ten times in nineteen years, but almost all of Joseph's later childhood was spent near Palmyra, New York, in the heart of what was called the "burned-over district" for its frequent and fervent Protestant revivals. By his own description, Smith's first direct divine revelation came at age fourteen, on the Smith family farm. In a series of encounters, God revealed to him that all religions since the death of Christ's disciples had strayed from the true Church of Christ, which Smith was charged with restoring. Later visions instructed Smith to translate a history of ancient inhabitants of North America written on tablets of gold stored in a nearby hillside. The translations were published in 1830 as the Book of Mormon, which together with the Old and New Testaments and some of Smith's later revelations became the sacred scripture of Mormonism. Theologically, Smith's new religion drew upon, yet transcended, important elements of 19th century American Protestantism and religious practices. God and Jesus Christ were hardly remote figures to Smith and his followers; they were material beings with the bodies of men who actively and directly intervened in human affairs. Human beings are themselves filled with the essence of divinity, and through proper conduct can literally become God-like. The Mormon Church, under the leadership of a divinely ordained Prophet, provides the structure by which humans progress toward this God-like status.

The appearance of the Lord to him, like that to Saul of Tarsus, was attended by a shining light from heaven (Acts 9:3). The Lord spoke face-to-face with Joseph and called him to service.

JOSEPH SMITH, JR. Founder and first "Prophet, Seer, and Revelator" of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) Joseph Smith, Jr. was born in Sharon, Windsor County, Vermont, on December 23, 1805. Joseph was the third son and one of ten children born to Joseph and Lucy Mack Smith. Both parents were poorly educated, very superstitious, and deeply involved in the occult (magic). The destitute Smith family moved frequently, with the mystical Joseph Sr. etching out a meager existence by farming, digging for buried treasure, and "water witching." When all else failed, he even attempted to mint his own money (a practice that was disliked by the local constabulary). The Smith family had a reputation for low moral character. According to more than sixty affidavits signed by members of the community, "...we have no hesitation in saying, that we consider them destitute of moral character, which ought to entitle them to the confidence of the community. They were particularly famous for visionary projects, spent much of their time in digging for money which they pretended was hid in the earth;...Joseph Smith, Senior, and his son Joseph, were in particular, considered entirely destitute of moral character, and addicted to vicious habits." Joseph, Jr. learned well from the poor examples shown by his parents. According to one acquaintance
