Joseph Smith
SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY
Doctrine and Covenants 1:17-18

"Wherefore, I the Lord, knowing the calamity which should come upon the inhabitants of the earth, called upon my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., and spake unto him from heaven, and gave him commandments; and also gave commandments to others, that they should proclaim these things unto the world; and all this that it might be fulfilled, which was written by the prophets."


Thank you!

QUOTE OF THE DAY
John Taylor

"There was nothing particular about [Joseph Smith], he was a man like the balance of us.  But the Lord, for certain reasons of his own, I suppose, selected him to be his mouthpiece to the nations in this age of the world.  Perhaps Joseph, as well as any others, was set apart to a certain office before the world was.  Christ was slain from before the foundation of the world.  Abraham was set apart to his office, and a great many others in the same way; and Joseph Smith came to do his work" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: John Taylor, p. 79).
