“Read the Sermon on the Mount [see Matthew 5–7], and then ask yourselves whether it is beyond and above everything ever taught by man. It confirms me in the belief that Jesus was not merely a man, but that He was God manifest in the flesh. It is the doctrine of eternal life, by which if a man shall live he shall never die; by which if he shall walk he shall walk in pleasant paths; and by which if he shall abide, he shall know the truth, and the truth will make him free” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph F. Smith, p. 3).

1897 - President Wilford Woodruff recorded his testimony of the Prophet Joseph Smith on a wax-cylinder device invented by Thomas Edison with the help of his son-in-law, Joseph J.
