While serving in Kentucky on his mission in 1881, Elder Taylor
prophesied to the family he was teaching that they would know the truth before
the evening was over, how?
a.
The Angel Moroni would appear to them
b.
The Three Nephites would appear to
them
c.
They would have dreams telling them
the Church was true
d.
Their dead grandfather would appear
to them
Yesterday’s answer:
B. Orson Pratt
From the life of Orson Pratt: Blessed
with a brilliant mind, Elder Pratt’s understanding of certain Church doctrines
sometimes conflicted with those of other leaders of the Church, most notable
President Brigham Young. As a result, Elder Pratt received correction from time
to time. Never completely resigning himself to agreement with some things
President Young taught, he nevertheless remained loyal to him and the Church.
When Orson Pratt was attacked by “exceptionally orthodox” members of the
Church, Brigham Young brushed aside these criticisms by bolstering Elder
Pratt’s reputation with this affirmation of his faith: “If Brother Orson were
chopped up in inch pieces, each piece would cry out Mormonism was true.”
