Joseph Smith

« All quotes from this author
 

"The design of the great God in sending us into this world, and organizing us to prepare us for eternal worlds, I shall keep in my own bosom at present." (DHC 5:403) He also said "It is not always wise to relate all truth." (DHC 6:608) Clearly, he followed this philosophy for when he was at one time expounding on some parables he was asked: "What is the meaning of the scripture, 'He that is faithful over a few things shall be made ruler over many; and he that is faithful over many, shall be made ruler over many more?' What is the meaning of the parable of the ten talents? Also the conversation with Nicodemus 'Except a man be born of water and of the spirit?' were questions put to me which I shall not answer at present." (DHC 5:325)
