Joseph Smith's Redefinition of God
FREE OPEN LECTURE
When Joseph Smith first described his vision in the grove, it was an orthodox view of Christ's forgiveness of sin. The Book of Mormon likewise described a trinitarian view of God, although modalist in its understanding.
By the end of his life, Smith retold the First Vision story with "two distinct personages," and espoused theological propositions that seemed to reject Western monotheism itself. We'll look at the implications of Smith's late Nauvoo-era theology.
The presentation ends around 9.00. The exchange of ideas usually continues until 10, or even later, while we share complimentary snacks and beverages.
Free. There is no cost for this event but donations ($5 suggested) are greatly appreciated.
