Transcription

The questions quoted from the Mormon catechism were used as an introduction to what they have omitted entirely to notice, viz: that God existed in the form of a man, and that that man was Adam, who is "our father and our God and the only God with whom we have to do." And why did not these champions of Mormonism notice the questions in our letter from Brigham Young and others of their apostles who were guilty of blasphemy in the language they used in reference to Christ and the Holy Ghost?
