“I prophesy and bear record this morning that all the combined powers of earth and hell shall not and cannot ever overthrow or overcome this boy, for I have a promise from the eternal God. ” Joseph Smith, History of the Church, Volume 5, Page 554, August 27, 1843.
Joseph Smith was killed less than a year later on June 27, 1844. It certainly didn’t take “all the combined powers of earth and hell” to overthrow and overcome him. Just a few bullets and a two-story window.
Dare I say Joseph Smith uttered a false prophecy?

Dare I say Joseph Smith uttered a false prophecy?
I think the more appropriate question would be: Dare I say Joseph Smith didn’t utter a false prophecy?
LOL!
I’m still waiting for one of those Mormon apologists that seem to be drawn to my blog like moths to a flame when I broadside the LDS to provide one example of a validated Joseph Smith prophecy.
Needless to say I’m not holding my breath!

and how can they ignore the statement where Joseph Smith bragged that he did a greater work than Jesus, Paul and Peter. Then when he said, “when they can get rid of me the devil will also go.” Nothing like telling people who he really is. And yet they are blinded to the truth!

Doesn’t the bible say it is appointed to all men to die? So maybe Joseph Smith wasn’t talking about in this life. Even the Son of God was killed and overcome in this life but later rose triumphant and declared that he had overcome the world. He was killed by the world was he lying?
Please put things in context, oh wait that is one of your tricks taking things out of context.

Jesus Christ wasn’t “overcome” by the world, He laid His own life down by His own will (John 10:17-18). He knew full well what was coming in the night of the Passion, and He submitted to it because it was the will of the Father (Matt. 26:39,42). His death was a willing sacrifice…THE one and only Sacrifice for the salvation of man.
By contrast Joseph Smith boasted how he would not die until he was ready. Yet he died trying to escape an armed mob.

Dear Andrew (Anonymous):
Please keep in mind that I always cite where these Mormon quotes, teachings, and doctrines come from so that those who charge “out of context, out of context” can research for themselves to see that they’re actually not taken out of context.
I resent your charge of “trickery.” I am not trying to trick anyone, only present documented and researchable facts. To make false accusations that I am purposely taking LDS teachings out of context to trick people is bearing false witness.

P.S. Do you want to take a crack at Joseph Smith’s false prophecies? So far no one else has.
