Lesson 7: Joseph Smith, an Instrument in the Hands of the Lord

John the Revelator in the New Testament, testified before the Lord comes again that a heavenly messenger would visit the earth, having the everlasting gospel to preach to them that dwell on the earth, and every nation,and kindred, and tongue,and people. We as Latter-day Saint women understand that angel to be the Angel Moroni, who appeared to the young Prophet Joseph Smith, and over a period of time, tutored him, from the Lord to be the Prophet of the Restoration.

We love and honor the Prophet Joseph Smith, and appreciate that he sealed his testimony with his blood. Do you personally have a testimony of this great Prophet? Have you borne that testimony to your children and grandchildren?

Ezra Taft Benson said that the first Vision was the greatest event in the world since what?
What is the most singular evidence that Joseph was a Prophet?
What blessings have come to you because of the Restoration of the Gospel?
When you are challenged with why you are a member of this church, what do you learn from the Prophet Joseph?

If you have read any sacred or fun stories about the Prophet Joseph, please come prepared to share them! Please read lesson 7 and also the Joseph Smith History at the end of your triple combination, right after Abraham and just before the index.

See you Sunday, Love Karen Bateman
