On thing that seems to be missing in the account of Joseph Smith is fear.<br /><br />One of the most famous lines quoted by the angel of God was fear not. This is because an incounter by an angelic being is so out of the ordinary that we as humans are stricken with fear. Mary was told not to fear when she was first told about Christ.<br /><br />The word tells us that the word shouldn't be alterted, even by an angel. God's word is complete yet man in his war against the flesh, which is often more loss than gain, chooses to alter the word to apease his desires.<br /><br />The truth is what it is and the words tells us to guard our hearts against those who would teach us falsly. We should be capable of discerning, through the holy spirit, what is flesh and what is spirit, and ween ourselves from the former.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06797162692972100083noreply@blogger.com
