The Restoration

The entire purpose of the restoration was to restore the knowledge of how to come into the presence of God the Eternal Father.  Nothing more, nothing less. 

Many seem to forget that the entire restoration was to restore the knowledge of how to come into the presence of God the Eternal Father.  This is the knowledge that was restored to the prophet Joseph Smith, and what he tried to give to all those who would accept it.

A church was established as a vehicle to move people from the world to the presence of God.  The church is only a society to give people an opportunity to follow the pattern and perfect themselves, to work on those traits that would bring them into the very presence of the Saviour in this mortality. 

The true purpose of the restoration is to restore the correct knowledge of God, and then to offer to all who will, to come into the presence of God.  Nothing more, nothing less.

False Prophets

A prophet of God, says follow God.
A prophet for himself, says follow me.
A false prophet, sings Follow The Prophet.
A true prophet, sings follow Christ.
