It matters that he supported one idea, but okay to disregard that he later corrected himself?Shawn Henry wrote: ↑July 31st, 2022, 11:07 pmWhether he did or didn't is irrelevant. The point is, he published the Lectures on Faith as the 'doctrine' portion of the D&C. He testified of it and so did two other PSR's.Artaxerxes wrote: ↑July 31st, 2022, 7:36 pm Was JS mistaken when he taught that the Holy Ghost was a personage?
He also taught that we measure doctrine according to scripture and that you recognize a false doctrine or false revelation by it contradicting previous revelation.
So by his own standard, even he himself cannot contradict scripture. If anyone is teaching contrary to LoF, they are teaching false doctrine. That is the standard the Lord gave us through JS.
We should compare it to revelation. The lectures on faith were not a revelation.
You are misapplying that standard.
