JOSEPH SMITH said: "It ALWAYS has been WHEN A MAN WAS SENT OF GOD WITH THE PRIESTHOOD and he began to preach the fulness of the Gospel. that he was thrust out by his friends, who are ready to butcher him IF HE TEACHES THINGS WHICH THEY IMAGINE TO BE WRONG: and Jesus was crucified upon this principal."
