The changing of YHWH’s word has not stopped and is on going. When less and less truths from YHWH are being held to, it is easier for the wicked ones to remove more and more of it from society, which is exactly what is going on. New Bible [book] translations today are changing YHWH’s words even further. The mixing of New Age and Occult with YHWH’s word that speaks out against them in churches world wide both Christian and Jewish such as Kabalah and the Oral Law. Sadly it’s even happening in restoration churches including the LDS / Brighamite church that I grew up in. Tithing is the subject that woke me up after reading Are We Paying Too Much Tithing? and what did it for me is how Brigham Young changed tithing from SURPLUS/LEFTOVER to GROSS/EVERYTHING and exempted himself and his cohorts from it soon after Joseph Smith was murdered, which he helped with. Word of Wisdom came soon after for me in how it states to use wine for the sacrament and that beer is good for us. Marriage aka monogamy vs polygamy was another big one and how Brigham Young had others modify Joseph Smith’s journal on that subject and others I have examples here. There are plenty more examples and I list some that I written about in my LDS resource page. Sadly on just about every single thing that Joseph Smith started the restoration on the LDS / Brighamite church and others who pretend to protect have PERVERTED it. People only believe the Book of Mormon only as far as it doesn’t contradict their leaders aka the arm of flesh as I bring out in Except this and Except that. Joseph Smith last dream prophecies of such.

1 Nephi (LDS 22:14) (RLDS 7:28-31)
A And every nation which shall war against thee,
-B O house of Israel,
–C shall be turned one against another,
—DA and they shall fall into the pit
—DB which they digged to ensnare the people of the Lord [YHWH].
—-E And all that fight against Zion shall be destroyed,
—D and that GREAT WHORE,
–C WHO HATH PERVERTED THE RIGHT WAYS OF THE LORD [YHWH],
-B YEA, THAT GREAT AND ABOMINABLE CHURCH,
A shall tumble to the dust and great shall be the fall of it.

1828 Webster’s Dictionary, PERVERT:
1) To TURN FROM TRUTH, propriety, or from its proper PURPOSE; to DISTORT from its true use or end; as, to pervert reason by MISDIRECTING it; to pervert the laws by MISINTEPRETING and MISAPPLYING them; to pervert justice; to pervert the MEANING of an author; to pervert nature; to pervert TRUTH.
2) To turn from the right; to CORRUPT.
He in the serpent had perverted Eve.

I was back in Kirtland, Ohio, and thought I would take a walk out by myself, and view my old farm, which I found grown up with weeds and brambles, and altogether bearing evidence of neglect and want of culture. I went into the barn, which I found without floor or doors, with the weather-boarding off, and was altogether in keeping with the farm.

While I viewed the desolation around me, and was contemplating how it might be recovered from the curse upon it, there came rushing into the barn a company of furious men, who commenced to pick a quarrel with me.

The leader of the party ordered me to leave the barn and farm, stating it was none of mine, and that I must give up all hope of ever possessing it.

I told him the farm was given me by the Church, and although I had not had any use of it for some time back, still I had not sold it, and according to righteous principles it belonged to me or the Church.

He then grew furious and began to rail upon me, and threaten me, and said it never did belong to me nor to the Church.

I then told him that I did not think it worth contending about, that I had no desire to live upon it in its present state, and if he thought he had a better right I would not quarrel with him about it but leave; but my assurance that I would not trouble him at present did not seem to satisfy him, as he seemed determined to quarrel with me, and threatened me with the destruction of my body [murder].

While he was thus engaged, pouring out his bitter words upon me, a rabble rushed in and nearly filled the barn, drew out their knives, and began to quarrel among themselves for the premises, and for a moment forgot me, at which time I took the opportunity to walk out of the barn about up to my ankles in mud [mire].

When I was a little distance from the barn, I heard them screeching and screaming in a very distressed manner, as it appeared they had engaged in a general fight with their knives. While they were thus engaged, the dream or vision ended.

Joseph Smith, 27 June 1844, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pages 393-394

This dream that Joseph Smith had is a prophecy of the restoration. Below is a overview of a chiasmus I see in the dream, and some expounding of the symbols in the dream and it’s meaning paragraph by paragraph.

A State of the restoration
B Men fighting with Joseph and themselves
C Men telling Joseph to leave the restoration
D Ownership of the restoration

I was back in Kirtland, Ohio, and thought I would take a walk out by myself, and view my old farm, which I found grown up with weeds and brambles, and altogether bearing evidence of neglect and want of culture. I went into the barn, which I found without floor or doors, with the weather-boarding off, and was altogether in keeping with the farm.

Joseph Smith, 27 June 1844, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pages 393-394

The old farm represents the restoration. Its old because it’s not something new, it started to restore the ancient / old ways. The weeds shows that the restoration has not been taken care of and has been taken over by criminals doing hurtful things making it unprofitable and not going through the refiners fire. A bramble “is any rough, tangled, prickly shrub” (from Wikipedia) that grows small fruits. Although these tiny fruits can be tasty, the shrubs they come on are plastered with thorns. Just as sins are tantalizing what they are attached to will harm our souls and bind us to Satan. The first time brambles are mentioned in the scriptures is in Judges 9 in an analogy in Judges 9:7-21 of how the trees [people] asked the bramble [wicked ruler] to rule over them. The rest of Judges 9 demonstrates to us is that the bramble is Abimelech an “UNPRINCIPLED and AMBITIOUS ruler, often engaged in war with his own subjects” (from Wikipedia) who MURDERED others to put himself in charge, (see Sooner or Later: A Lesson From the Life of Abimelech, The Bible Story of Abimelech), keep in mind how Abimelech MURDERED to get control for later. Judges 9:7-21 also has undertones of picking God [Elohim] or mammon [money] (see Tithing). The second time bramble is brought up is in Isaiah 34 which deals with the wicked state before the second coming of Yeshua / Jesus. Isaiah 34:13 ties brambles with habitation of dragons [where followers of Satan live] and court for owls, this could be dealing with bad courts as I talk about in McKenna Denson a force for good or greed (H3284 yaanah) as alluded to Judges 9:7-21 and I talk about greed in Bishops are JUDGEs of Israel and Tithing. The last time bramble is used is in Luke 6:44 where Yehsua/Jesus is using it as an allusion to wickedness. I believe all these points are relevant and can be demonstrated with the current state of the restoration. The lack of culture demonstrates the lack of learning and understanding. The barn is a building figurative of the church / assembly, which has decayed to the point it has no floor. The missing floor is indicative that sheaves / people are not being gathered for the Father (see 3 Nephi (LDS 20:18) (RLDS 9:54), Deuteronomy 15:14, Hosea 9:2, Joel 2:24, JST Matthew 3:12). The lack of a door indicates the removal of Yeshua / Jesus from it (see John 10:7-10). Restoration Churches going around claiming they get their authority from Joseph Smith where no one alive today making such claims were alive while Joseph Smith was alive. Not to mention that YHWH in the Doctrine and Covenants, the Book of Mormon and the Joseph Smith Translation and quotes from Joseph Smith all teach that the Melchizedek priesthood comes from the Voice of Elohim not from a man laying his hands upon another man (see Priesthood resource page for quotes and scriptures). Restorationists cling to claimed teachings supposedly taught to wicked men in secret or sayings remembered years after the fact that contradict the plain and precious assertions of YHWH Elohim in scriptures instead of abiding the Book of Mormon, Bible and Doctrine and Covenants as Joseph Smith taught to do. In addition people claiming they don’t need this or that truth from Bible because Joseph Smith did not teach it. There is no scripture that claims that we are to live by every word that comes from Joseph Smith. There are how ever plentiful examples in the scriptures we are to live by EVERY WORD that proceeds forth from MOUTH OF YHWH ELOHIM. Keep in mind that both the Book of Mormon and the Doctrine and Covenants tell us that Joseph Smith did not restore everything but did a very important thing and got it started, which is the focus of MUCH vs ALL in LDS D&C 130:40. People are also claiming that they know better than YHWH’s prophets in the Bible and the Book of Mormon. Weatherboarding is used to protect a building from the sea. Just as the barn in this prophetic dream is missing the weatherboarding so has the assemblies have allowed heresies from the beast of the sea to creep in and destroy them (see Revelation 13). You can either float along in the sea or stand up and “always abounding in good works” caused by the “hope for a better world” that Yeshua’s/Jesus’ sheep receive (see Ether (LDS 12:4) (RLDS 5:4)) when we are born again (see Alma (LDS 5:14,49) (RLDS 3:27-29,85-86)). When we drink salt water it dehydrates us and if not remedied it will kill us. In a like manner when we drink the sea of the beast we loose water [revelation] from God [Elohim] which will cause our separation from the Eternal Father. We are not to alter or hide revelations (see Publish for scriptures) from YHWH. We are to share them as Yeshua/Jesus gives them and then expound them to help others understand them as Mormon did in Moroni (LDS 8) (RLDS 8). We are not to salt God’s [Elohim’s] revelations, we are to give a meal [expand/unfold] with the water [revelation].

Jeremiah 6:16 Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the OLD PATHS, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.

Judges 9:7-21
14 Then said all the TREES unto the BRAMBLE, Come thou, and REIGN over us. 15 And the BRAMBLE said unto the TREES, If in truth ye anoint me KING over you, then come and put your TRUST in my SHADOW: and if not, let fire come out of the BRAMBLE, and devour the cedars of Lebanon [wealth].

Isaiah 34:13 And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and BRAMBLES in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an HABITATION OF DRAGONS, and a COURT FOR OWLS.

John 10:7-10
A 7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I AM the DOOR of the sheep.
B 8 All that ever came before me are THIEVES and ROBBERS: but the sheep did not hear them.
A 9 I AM the DOOR: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
B 10 The THIEF cometh not, but for to STEAL, and to KILL, and to DESTROY: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

President Joseph Smith read the 14th chapter of Ezekiel–said the Lord had declared by the Prophet, that the people should each one stand for himself, and depend on no man or men in that state of corruption of the Jewish church–that righteous persons could only deliver their own souls–applied it to the present state of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints–said if the people departed from the Lord, they must fall–that they were depending on the Prophet, hence were darkened in their minds, in consequence of neglecting the duties devolving upon themselves, envious towards the innocent, while they afflict the virtuous with their shafts of envy.

All the priest who adhere to the sectarian religions of the day with all their followers, without one exception, receive their portion with the devil and his angels. Joseph Smith, The Elders Journal, Vol 1, n 4, page 60, The Great and Abominable

Tho’ your minds are yet darkened, and your eyes dim of sight, by the traditions, superstitions, and follies of the ages, imposed upon you by the Papal See, and hierarchy of Rome; the Patriarch, and ecclesiastical council, of Constantinople; and the priesthood of the protestant sects; the Lord of heaven addressed you as intelligent beings, and direct you to come out from among them, that you may become the elite of the kingdom – bright, and shinning lights in your Father’s house. Joseph Smith, Proclamation to the World, MormonPDF (backup), The Joseph Smith Papers, The Great and Abominable

And we will lay down the following principle which the friends to National union may do well to consider. The principle is this; that men of congenial religions or other interests, should separate themselves from those of adverse faith and interests and pair off, each to each. Let the Roman Catholic cleave to the Roman Catholic, and the Jew to the Jew and the Mahometan to the Mahometan and the Presbyterian and the Latter Day Saint, each to their own people, united however under one General Government on the righteous terms of mutual reciprocity, as necessity and advantage may require. The promiscuous intermixture of heterogenous bodies for the purpose of unity and strength is alike distant both from pure religion and sound philosophy … Joseph Smith, The Council of Fifty, Minutes, Volume 1, page 357, The Joseph Smith Papers, The Great and Abominable

Ether (LDS 6:10) (RLDS 3:12) And thus they were driven forth; and no MONSTER OF THE SEA could BREAK THEM, neither whale that could mar them; and they did have light continually, whether it was above the water or under the water.

While I viewed the desolation around me, and was contemplating how it might be recovered from the curse upon it, there came rushing into the barn a company of furious men, who commenced to pick a quarrel with me.

Joseph Smith, 27 June 1844, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pages 393-394

As Joseph Smith looks at the ruined state and wondering how the curse (see Deuteronomy 28-29 and King Brigham) could be removed. Scriptures tell us a Might and Strong One is coming to set the house of God [Elohim] in order (see MUCH vs ALL in LDS D&C 130:40). Although Joseph Smith did things close to what the mighty one will do in the future, there are slight differences. Hopefully Mighty One Chiasmus will make 2 Nephi (LDS 3:1-25) (RLDS 2:1-50) more clear in what it is teaching along with JST Genesis 50:24-38. While Joseph Smith is wondering how the farm [restoration] would recover from it’s awful situation (see Ether (LDS 8:24) (RLDS 4:29-31)), a group of violent men [leaders of churches] came to start a fight with him, because THEY DO NOT AGREE WITH JOSEPH SMITH.

There has been a GREAT DIFFICULTY IN GETTING ANYTHING INTO THE HEADS of this generation. It has been like splitting hemlock knots with a corn-dodger for a wedge and a pumpkin for a beetle. EVEN THE SAINTS ARE SLOW TO UNDERSTAND. I have TRIED FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS TO GET THE MINDS OF THE SAINTS PREPARED TO RECEIVE THE THINGS OF GOD; but we frequently see some of them, after suffering all they have for the work of God, will FLY TO PIECES LIKE GLASS AS SOON AS ANYTHING COMES THAT IS CONTRARY TO THEIR TRADITIONS.
Joseph Smith, History of the Church, 6:184-85, 1844-01-21

The leader of the party ordered me to leave the barn and farm, stating it was none of mine, and that I must give up all hope of ever possessing it.

Joseph Smith, 27 June 1844, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pages 393-394

The largest and most well know branch of the restoration is the LDS / Brighamite church, the one I grew up in but no longer a member of by choice. It is very much the leader or chief branch for influence, members, politics and money [mammon]. And Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon are only used as tokens to claim the restoration as I talk about in Except this and Except that, as they contradict both on just about everything as I show here. On a regular basis when something comes out that looks bad they always put make it look like it came from Joseph Smith instead of Brigham Young where it actually came from, because they look up to Brigham Young and his teachings and not the restoration that YHWH started through Joseph Smith. Joseph Smith would not be allowed to teach in the many, if any, restoration churches today. This leader of men is also usurping authority in that he took what he never had the right to, see Priesthood.

Now will it cause some of you to marvel that I was not ordained a High Priest before I was ordained an Apostle? Brother Kimball and myself were NEVER ORDAINED HIGH PRIESTS. How wonderful! … When a man is ordained to be an Apostle, his Priesthood is without beginning of days, or end of life, LIKE the Priesthood of Melchizedek. Brigham Young, 1853 Apr 06, Journal of Discourses 1:136

D&C (LDS 107:9,22,65-66,78-79,91) (RLDS 104) (1835 3) (1844 3)
9 The Presidency of the High Priesthood, after the order of Melchizedek, have a right to officiate in all the offices in the church.
22 Of the Melchizedek Priesthood, three Presiding High Priests, chosen by the body, appointed and ordained to that office, and upheld by the confidence, faith, and prayer of the church, form a quorum of the Presidency of the Church.
65 Wherefore, it must needs be that one be appointed of the High Priesthood to preside over the priesthood, and he shall be called President of the High Priesthood of the Church; 66 Or, in other words, the Presiding High Priest over the High Priesthood of the Church.
78 Again, verily, I say unto you, the most important business of the church, and the most difficult cases of the church, inasmuch as there is not satisfaction upon the decision of the bishop or judges, it shall be handed over and carried up unto the council of the church, before the Presidency of the High Priesthood. 79 And the Presidency of the council of the High Priesthood shall have power to call other high priests, even twelve, to assist as counselors; and thus the Presidency of the High Priesthood and its counselors shall have power to decide upon testimony according to the laws of the church.
91 And again, the duty of the President of the office of the High Priesthood is to preside over the whole church, and to be like unto Moses—

I told him the farm was given me by the Church, and although I had not had any use of it for some time back, still I had not sold it, and according to righteous principles it belonged to me or the Church.

Joseph Smith, 27 June 1844, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pages 393-394

The restoration was given to Joseph Smith by the head of the Church of the First Born, namely Yeshua / Jesus Himself.

D&C (LDS 90:3) (RLDS 87) (1835 84) (1844 85) 3 Verily I [YHWH] say unto you [Joseph Smith], the keys of this kingdom shall never be taken from you [Joseph Smith], while thou art in the world, neither in the world to come;

He then grew furious and began to rail upon me, and threaten me, and said it never did belong to me nor to the Church.

Joseph Smith, 27 June 1844, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pages 393-394

This so called leader of men [LDS / Brighamite church] became violent towards Joseph Smith. And started to modify and censor Joseph Smith’s teachings. I have a few examples of that in my Marriage resource page. You can find other examples of this on The Joseph Smith Papers website, in that the original documents show different teachings than what the LDS / Brighamite church claims.

1828 Webster’s Dictionary, FURIOUS:

When the Church historians George A Smith and Wilford Woodruff completed their publication of the History of Joseph Smith, down to the 8th of August, 1844, which history was published in installments in the Deseret News, Utah, and in the Millennial Star, England, they expressed themselves upon the correctness of what they had published in the following manner:
…
Moreover, SINCE the DEATH of the Prophet JOSEPH, the history has been carefully REVISED [MODIFIED] under the STRICT INSPECTION of President BRIGHAM YOUNG, AND APPROVED BY HIM
…
Their statement assuredly is true; and yet by a careful REVISION [MODIFIED] of the work they did, and the CORRECTION [MODIFICATION] of a few errors [truths] in dates and other details, the work has been brought to a still higher state of perfection.

I noticed the interpolations because having been employed in the Historian’s office at Nauvoo by Doctor Richards, and employed, too, in 1845, in compiling this very autobiography, I know that after Joseph’s death his memoir was “DOCTORED” to suit the new order of things, and this, too, by the direct order of Brigham Young to Doctor Richards and systematically by Richards. Inez Smith, Biography of Charles Wesley Wandell, Journal of History 3, 1910-01, pages 455-463

That this revision of censorship of the official history came from Brigham Young is evidenced by an 11 July 1856 reference in Wilford Woodruff’s diary. Apostle Woodruff, working in the church historian’s office question [Brigham] Young respecting a “piece of history on book E-1 page 1681-2 concerning Hyrum leading this church and tracing the Aaronic priesthood.” [Brigham] Young advised “it is not essential to be inserted in the history and it had better be omitted”. Richard Van Wagoner, summarizing Wilford Woodruff’s July 11, 1856 journal entry

Once published, Smith’s Biographical Sketches was suppressed by Brigham Young, who condemned it as inaccurate, ordered it’s destruction, and instructed church historians to begin working on a corrected version. [Brigham] Young‘s concern centered on Smith’s favorable portrayal of her son William, whom [Brigham] Young disliked (see Bushman 1984, 194, n. 4; Shipps 1985, 91-107). Pratt issued a statement in 1855 claiming that he believed Lucy’s manuscript ‘was written under the inspection of the Prophet [Joseph Smith]; but from evidences since received, it is believed that the greater part of the manuscripts did not pass under his review, as there are items which are ascertained to be incorrect’ (Deseret News 5 [21 March 1855])

1828 Webster’s Dictionary, THREATEN:
1) To declare the purpose of INFLICTING PUNISHMENT, PAIN or other EVIL on another, for some sin or OFFENSE; to menace. God threatens the finally impenitent with everlasting banishment from his presence. 2) To menace; to TERRIFY or attempt to terrify by menaces; as FOR EXTORTING MONEY [Tithing].
3) To charge or enjoin with menace, or with implied REBUKE; or to charge strictly.
4) To menace by action; to PRESENT the appearance of COMING EVIL; as, rolling billows threaten to overwhelm us.
5) To exhibit the appearance of something EVIL or UNPLEASANT APPROACHING; as, the clouds threaten us with rain or a storm.

I then told him that I did not think it worth contending about, that I had no desire to live upon it in its present state, and if he thought he had a better right I would not quarrel with him about it but leave; but my assurance that I would not trouble him at present did not seem to satisfy him, as he seemed determined to quarrel with me, and threatened me with the destruction of my body [murder].

Joseph Smith, 27 June 1844, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pages 393-394

Joseph Smith told this usurper that he [they] could have the farm [restoration] because in it’s present state he no longer wanted it. The usurper was not content with having the farm [restoration], but went on how he wanted to murder Joseph Smith, see Joseph Smith’s Murder for more. Part of thou shalt not murder is “don’t do away with others” to learn more of what this entails please visit Testimony and Blessings.

Mosiah (LDS 13:21) (RLDS 7:120) Thou shalt not kill [murder].

This day the Lord has shown to me that which was never shown to me before, that I have thousands of friends that never pretended friendship, while others have sought to crawl into my bosom because of my good feelings towards them, and now are the vipers and do seek my life; and if they shall take it they will pursue you; they will do it any how
Joseph Smith, Comprehensive History of the Church, Vol.1, Ch.26, p.318 – p.319, 1844-06-23

My life is more in danger from some little dough-head of a fool in this city than from all my numerous and inveterate enemies abroad. I am exposed to far greater danger from traitors among ourselves than from enemies without, although my life has been sought for many years by the civil and military authorities, priests, and people of Missouri; and if I can escape from the ungrateful treachery of assassins, I can live as Caesar might have lived, were it not for a right-hand Brutus. I have had pretended friends betray me. All the enemies upon the face of the earth may roar and exert all their power to bring about my death, but they can accomplish nothing, unless some who are among us and enjoy our society, have been with us in our councils, participated in our confidence, taken us by the hand, called us brother, saluted us with a kiss, join with our enemies, turn our virtues into faults, and, by falsehood and deceit, stir up their wrath and indignation against us, and bring their united vengeance upon our heads. All the hue-and-cry of the chief priests and elders against the Savior, could not bring down the wrath of the Jewish nation upon His head, and thereby cause the crucifixion of the Son of God, until Judas said unto them, “Whomsoever I shall kiss, he is the man; hold him fast.” Judas was one of the Twelve Apostles, even their treasurer, and dipt with their Master in the dish, and through his treachery, the crucifixion was brought about; and we have a Judas in our midst.
Joseph Smith, 1843-12-29, History of the Church, Volume 6, page 152

I was in Nauvoo a few days before my brothers were brought to Carthage, where they met their death. I shall never forget that Saturday, June 23, 1844, when I last saw my brothers alive. I heard Brother Joseph’s last sermon, delivered to a great audience in Nauvoo — the largest crowd I have ever seen — in the open air, for no house would hold the people. I might say that it was more in the nature of a prophecy than a sermon, or rather its conclusion was, for as he finished he turned [and] stood facing some of the high priests and Elders sitting there — church dignitaries who were seated on the platform behind him and told them that there was seated on the speaker’s stand beside him those who were conspiring to deliver him up to the enemy… to take his life, and who would be responsible for his death. [He said] ‘There are those among you who will betray me soon; in fact, you have plotted to deliver me up to the enemy to be slain.’ The truth of this prophecy is of history. He was betrayed, and by his own alleged best friends. These same fellows attempted to assume the reigns of the church at his death.
Katherine Smith Salisbury, Joseph & Hyrum’s sister, I. G. Davidson interview, May, 1894; published in Carthage Republican, Quincy Whig & Salt Lake Tribune

Emma is naturally a very smart woman; she is subtle and ingenious, and she has made all her children believe that myself, brother Kimball, and the other members of the Twelve laid the plot which terminated in the death of the Prophet. This charge is especially laid to myself.
Manuscript Addresses of Brigham Young, 7 October 1866

Mark Curtis has brought out the following:
Brigham Young’s Journal Entries on Joseph & Hyrum’s Death
Does anything about this sound a little weird to you?
Thursday, June 27, 1844
“…I felt a heavy depression of spirit, and so melancholy I could not converse with any degree of pleasure. Not knowing anything concerning the tragedy enacting at this time in Carthage jail, I could not assign my reasons for my peculiar feelings.”
Then, 12 days later…
Tuesday, July 9, 1844
“I heard to-day, for the first time, the rumors concerning the death of Joseph and Hyrum.”
Some questions worth asking:
1. How did Brigham Young feel sad on June 27th, considering he supposedly didn’t know about the assassination until 12 days later?
2. Why is the June 27th entry written in past tense?
3. Is Brigham Young admitting to editing his journal hind-sight? Or admitting to knowing about Joseph’s assassination this day? Take your pick.
4. Why write a journal entry 2 weeks prior, instead of summarizing his feelings (even recollecting them) in the July 9th entry?
What do you think?

Ether (LDS 8:24) (RLDS 4:29-31) 24 Wherefore, the Lord COMMANDETH you, WHEN YE SHALL SEE THESE THINGS come among you that ye shall AWAKE to a sense of your AWFUL SITUATION, because of this SECRET COMBINATION which shall be among you; or wo be unto it, because of the BLOOD of them who have been SLAIN; for they cry from the DUST for VENGEANCE upon it, and also upon those who BUILT IT UP.

Helaman (LDS 6:19) (RLDS 2:128) And it was they [those with secret signs and words] who did murder the chief judge Cezoram [Joseph and Hyrum Smith], and his son [successor, Samuel Smith], while in the judgment-seat; and behold, they were not found.

Hyrum & Joseph was Murdered in Carthage Jail in Hancock Co[,] Illinois. Samuel Smith died in Nauvoo, supposed to have been the Subject of Conspiricy by Brigham Young.
Joseph Smith Family Testimony, William Smith Notes Circa 1875, Vogel, Early Mormon Documents, p. 488

I have good reason for believing that my brother Samuel H. Smith, died of poison at Nauvoo, administered by order of Brigham Young and Willard Richards, only a few weeks subsequent to the unlawful murder of my other brothers, Joseph and Hiram Smith, while incarcerated in Carthage jail.
Several other persons who were presumed to stand between Brigham Young and the accomplishment of his ambitions and wicked designs, mysteriously disappeared from Nauvoo about the same time, and have never been heard from since.”
William Smith, “Mormonism,” letter to the “New York Tribune,” 28 May 1857

While he was thus engaged, pouring out his bitter words upon me, a rabble rushed in and nearly filled the barn, drew out their knives, and began to quarrel among themselves for the premises, and for a moment forgot me, at which time I took the opportunity to walk out of the barn about up to my ankles in mud [mire].

Joseph Smith, 27 June 1844, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pages 393-394

While the usurper was threatening to MURDER Joseph additional noisy and vulgar men came to fight the others for the premises [restoration] and forgot about Joseph and what he taught. The fighting among themselves is what those of the Abominable church does as stated in 1 Nephi (LDS 22:13-16) (RLDS 7:26-35). In the Book of Mormon when two different churches of God [Elohim], Zarahemla and Alma the elder, find out about each other they did not fight with each other or create a council of churches, they joined together and became one church of God [Elohim]. Another word for mud is mire (see tit H2916 and 1828 Webster’s Dictionary MIRE). There are two things that the mud / mire represents. First the wickedness in the restoration from not keeping God’s [Elohim’s] laws. And second how these men, which represent branches of the restoration, hate Joseph Smith and what he restored. They have allowed the false doctrines from the sea beast to come in and decay the truth. “Mires are nutrient-poor and acidic” and are full of decay according to Mire, Wikipedia. Anther aspect of mires/peatlands have stagnant aka dead or not flowing water as brought out in Peatlands and marshes, remarkable wetlands, which otherwise would have cleaned out the decaying matter. Hence the need for real revelation [water] from YHWH and to publish it according to the scriptures.

1828 Webster’s Dictionary, RABBLE:
noun [Latin rabula, a BRAWLER, from rabo, to RAVE.]
1) A tumultuous crowd of VULGAR, NOISY people; the mob; a CONFUSED DISORDERLY crowd.

Mosiah (LDS 4:14) (RLDS 2:25-26) And ye will not suffer your children that they go hungry, or naked; neither will ye suffer that they transgress the laws [Torah] of God [Elohim], and fight and quarrel one with another, and serve the devil, who is the master of sin, or who is the evil spirit which hath been spoken of by our fathers, he being an enemy to all righteousness.

Alma (LDS 50:21) (RLDS 22:22) And we see that these promises have been verified to the people of Nephi; for it has been their quarrelings and their contentions, yea, their murderings, and their plunderings, their idolatry, their whoredoms, and their abominations, which were among themselves, which brought upon them their wars and their destructions.

Mosiah (LDS 25:19) (RLDS 11:97) And it came to pass that king Mosiah granted unto Alma that he might establish churches throughout all the land of Zarahemla; and gave him power to ordain priests and teachers over every church.

3 Nephi (LDS 7:8) (RLDS 3:43) And thus SIX [mankind’s weakness] years had not passed away since the MORE PART OF THE PEOPLE had TURNED FROM THEIR RIGHTEOUSNESS, like the dog to his vomit, or like the sow to her wallowing in the MIRE [MUD].

Isaiah 57:20 But the WICKED are like the TROUBLED SEA, when it cannot rest, whose [sea] waters cast up MIRE and dirt.

I hope I have made it clear in everyone’s mind that Joseph Smith did indeed restore truths that had been lost and forgotten. If are not using what Joseph Smith restored but following policies and wisdom of man that contradicts what Joseph Smith restored, seriously, can we really honestly say we are part of the restoration, which so many of us believe in, if we are not heeding what was restored through Joseph Smith especially The Book of Mormon?
Bishops are JUDGEs of Israel

When I was a little distance from the barn, I heard them screeching and screaming in a very distressed manner, as it appeared they had engaged in a general fight with their knives. While they were thus engaged, the dream or vision ended.

Joseph Smith, 27 June 1844, Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, pages 393-394

Not long after Joseph Smith left the restoration, the restoration was weeping and wailing and gnashing the teeth because they have let the sea beast in and forsook the new [renewed] covenant. Webster’s 1828 Dictionary tells us that knives are can be little swords. I find it sad that almost no time after Joseph Smith was murdered that there were seven churches (see Deuteronomy 28:25) making unpleasant and harsh sounds to my ears while fighting with small words among each other. Instead of listening to the quiet voice of God [Elohim] and serving one another to becoming ONE together, they went around screaming listen to me, YHWH teachings have changed now that I’m in charge. Although 2 Nephi (LDS 28:2-6) (RLDS 12:2-8) is primarily about the coming forth of the Book of Mormon, which includes the Joseph Smiths dealings, see “For IT shall come to pass in that day” 2 Nephi (LDS 28:3) (RLDS 12:3) IT is the Book of Mormon from 2 Nephi (LDS 27:1-35) (RLDS 11:116-160), the same things are still happening today. I find it interesting that 2 Nephi (26:1-33) (RLDS 11:58-115) is prophesying of the same conditions in 2 Nephi (LDS 28:1-32) (RLDS 12:1-41) putting the Book of Mormon prophecy Nephi (LDS 27:1-35) (RLDS 11:116-160) in the center. I deal with how the conditions of the coming forth of the Book of Mormon and the sealed plates are different in It shall come in a day when …. Sadly, most if not all restoration churches claim only they are the LORD’s [YHWH] contrary to what 2 Nephi (LDS 28:3) (RLDS 12:3-4) is teaching see Churches for more.

Now that we have become aware of what the scriptures, including those that the Lord God had Joseph Smith give to us, the question now becomes are we going trust in God and His Holy Word or put our trust in the arm of flesh who have given us flawed policies that have caused much harm in so many people including believers. After all God Himself said that we are govern the church and ourselves by the scriptures NOT the church handbook of instructions volume 1 or any volume for that matter.
D&C 42:59 Thou shalt take the things which thou hast received, which have been given unto thee in my SCRIPTURES for a LAW, to be my LAW to GOVERN my church;
I hope I have made it clear in everyone’s mind that Joseph Smith did indeed restore truths that had been lost and forgotten. If are not using what Joseph Smith restored but following policies and wisdom of man that contradicts what Joseph Smith restored, seriously, can we really honestly say we are part of the restoration, which so many of us believe in, if we are not heeding what was restored through Joseph Smith especially The Book of Mormon?
D&C 84:57 And they shall remain under this CONDEMNATION until they REPENT and REMEMBER the new [renewed] covenant, even the BOOK OF MORMON and the FORMER COMMANDMENTS [Torah] which I [God] have given them, not only to say, BUT TO DO ACCORDING to that which I [God] HAVE WRITTEN [God wrote the ten commandments with His Finger].
Bishops are JUDGEs of Israel

Jeremiah 4:31 For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, and the anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, that bewaileth herself, that spreadeth her hands, saying, Woe is me now! for my soul is wearied because of murderers.

Jeremiah 9:19 For a voice of wailing is heard out of Zion, How are we spoiled! we are greatly confounded, because we have forsaken the land, because our dwellings have cast us out.

Revelation 18:19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

Mosiah (LDS 16:2) (RLDS 8:72-73) And then shall the wicked be cast out, and they shall have cause to howl, and weep, and wail, and gnash their teeth; and this because they would not hearken unto the voice of the Lord [YHWH]; therefore the Lord [YHWH] redeemeth them not.

Alma (LDS 5:36) (RLDS 3:60) For behold, the time is at hand that whosoever bringeth forth not good fruit, or whosoever doeth not the works of righteousness, the same have cause to wail and mourn.

Alma (LDS 40:13) (RLDS 19:45-46) And then shall it come to pass, that the spirits of the wicked, yea, who are evil-for behold, they have no part nor portion of the Spirit of the Lord [YHWH]; for behold, they chose evil works rather than good; therefore the spirit of the devil did enter into them, and take possession of their house-and these shall be cast out into outer darkness; there shall be weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth, and this because of their own iniquity, being led captive by the will of the devil.

D&C (LDS 19:5) (RLDS 18) (1833 16) (1835 44) (1844 44) Wherefore, I revoke not the judgments which I shall pass, but woes shall go forth, weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth, yea, to those who are found on my left hand.

Joseph Smith taught we are to ABIDE [maintain, stationary, adhere] the Book of Mormon. Sadly people today who claim to believe in the Book of Mormon teach that the prophets recorded on the gold plates didn’t know what they were talking about or that they know better now, see Except this and Except that and LDS / Brighamite church. Please learn the Book of Mormon like the back of your hand and trust no one who contradicts it, no matter how many titles they claim or new revelations claimed contradicting past ones.

I told the brethren that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book.
Joseph Smith, History of the Church, 4:461

1828 Webster’s Dictionary, ABIDE:
verb intransitive:
abada, to be, or exist, to continue; W. bod, to be; to dwell, rest, continue, STAND FIRM, or be STATIONARY for anytime INDEFINITELY.
3) To continue permanently or in the same state; to be firm and IMMOVABLE. Psalms 119:90.
4) To REMAIN, to continue. Acts 27:31. Ecclesiastes 8:15.
verb transitive:
2) To ENDURE or SUSTAIN.
3) To bear or endure; to bear patiently. In general, abide by signifies to adhere to, MAINTAIN DEFEND, or stand to, as to abide by a promise, or by a friend; or to suffer the consequences, as to abide by the event, that is, to be FIXED or PERMANENT in a particular condition.

How it may be asked was this known to be a bad angel? … by his contradicting a former revelation.

I hope and pray that we may return to the Book of Mormon and Bible along with authentic sections of the Doctrine and Covenants to confound false doctrines and bring us back to YHWH’s righteousness which is Torah.

2 Nephi (LDS 3:12) (RLDS 2:19-23)
AA Wherefore, the fruit of thy [Joseph] loins shall write [BoM];
AB and the fruit of the loins of Judah shall write [Bible];
BA and that which shall be written by the fruit of thy loins [BoM],

CA shall grow together, unto the CONFOUNDING OF FALSE DOCTRINES
C-B and laying down of contentions,
C–C and ESTABLISHING PEACE among the fruit of thy [Joseph] loins,
C-B and bringing them to the knowledge of their fathers [ancestors] in the latter days,
CA and also to the KNOWLEDGE OF MY COVENANTS [TORAH], saith the Lord [YHWH].

Although 2 Nephi (LDS 3:12) (RLDS 2:19-23) is great advice for us all on how to help others come to the truth, 2 Nephi (LDS 3:12) (RLDS 2:19-23) is specifically about something the Mighty and Strong One will be doing.

———-K 11 But a SEER will I raise up out of the fruit of thy loins; and unto him will I GIVE POWER to bring forth my word unto the seed of thy loins—and NOT TO THE BRINING FORTH MY WORD ONLY, saith the Lord, but to the CONVINCING THEM OF MY WORD, which shall have ALREADY GONE FORTH AMONG THEM.
———–L 12 Wherefore, the fruit of THY LOINS shall WRITE; and the fruit of the loins of JUDAH shall WRITE; and that which shall be WRITTEN by the fruit of THY LOINS, and also that which shall be WRITTEN by the fruit of the loins of JUDAH, shall grow together, unto the CONFOUNDING OF FALSE DOCTRINES and laying down of contentions, and establishing peace among the fruit of thy loins, and bringing them to the KNOWLEDGE OF THEIR FATHERS in the latter days, and also to the KNOWLEDGE OF MY COVENANTS, saith the Lord.
————M 13 And OUT OF WEAKNESS HE SHALL BE MADE STRONG, in that day when my work shall commence AMONG ALL MY PEOPLE, unto the restoring thee, O house of Israel, saith the Lord.
———–L 14 And thus prophesied Joseph, saying: Behold, that SEER will the Lord BLESS; and THEY THAT SEEK TO DESTROY HIM SHALL BE CONFOUNDED; for this promise, which I have obtained of the Lord, of the fruit of my loins, shall be fulfilled. Behold, I am sure of the fulfilling of this promise;
———-K 15 And his name shall be called after me; and it shall be after the name of his father. AND HE SHALL BE LIKE UNTO ME; for the thing, which the Lord shall bring forth by his hand, by the POWER of the Lord shall bring my people unto SALVATION.
