Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Prophecies of Joseph Smith and Their Fulfillment Joseph Smith accepted the title and assumed the office of Prophet. He asserted his spiritual leadership, and with avowed authority spoke in the name of the Deity. In addition to the principles of revealed religion which he promulgated, he made numerous prophecies. The publication of both places him at the mercy of Time. It is the purpose of this publication to ascertain and disclose the verdict which Time has thus far rendered. Time is the supreme test of a prophecy. He who undertakes to foretell events must know that Time in its merciless pursuit will find him out. Of all the pretenses of the false prophet, prophesying is the most hazardous. Religious impostors often display qualities of leadership in controlling the affairs of their followers. The more modest their pretenses, however, the more likely are they to escape detection and exposure. But when spiritual leaders assume to exercise the exalted function of prophecy, and have the courage to publish their prophecies, they place their reputations before the bar of the world, and as the weight of Time presses out the vintage of the centuries they must sink to a deserving oblivion or be exalted to a place in the skies. Time is a foe of Fraud, but the never-failing friend of Truth. Now that the claims of Joseph Smith as prophet have been set up before the world for a century, it is proper that the verdict of Time should be ascertained. To disclose these findings, this small volume is given out. Only a few of the well-known prophecies are here considered.
