Test All Things
Brigham Young
Take up the Bible, compare the religion of the Latter-day Saints with it, and see if it will stand the test.
Brigham Young, Journal of Discourses, Vol. 16, p.46
J. Reuben Clark
If we have the truth, it cannot be harmed by investigation. If we have not the truth, it ought to be harmed.
J. Reuben Clark
Joseph Fielding Smith
Mormonism, as it is called, must stand or fall on the story of Joseph Smith. He was either a prophet of God, divinely called, properly appointed and commissioned, or he was one of the biggest frauds this world has ever seen. There is no middle ground.
Joseph Fielding Smith, Doctrines of Salvation 1:188
Gordon B. Hinckley
I would like to say that this cause is either true or false. Either this is the kingdom of God, or it is a sham and a delusion. Either Joseph talked with the Father and the Son, or he did not. If he did not, we are engaged in blasphemy.
Gordon B. Hinckley, Conference Reports, October 1961, p. 116
Jeffrey R. Holland
Either the Book of Mormon is what the Prophet Joseph said it is, or this Church and its founder are false, a deception from the first instance onward…Joseph must be accepted either as a prophet of God or else as a charlatan of the first order…
Jeffrey R. Holland, “Christ and the New Covenant,” quoted in Ensign, September 2002, 14
