No. Joseph Smith, Jr. never lived in England. His lineage is from England, however. His great-grandfather's grandfather Robert Smith (Joseph's great-great-great-grandfather) moved to Massachusetts from England in 1638.

How did John get back here to restore the priesthood of Aaron to Joseph Smith Do dead people come back to help us?

Yes. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the 'Mormon' church) believe that the deceased can interact with the living, especially if they are sent in errand by God. Mormons believe that this occurred throughout the Bible, because 'angels' are the spiritual embodiments of people who have or will live on earth. So, Moroni (a Book of Mormon prophet) returned to teach Joseph Smith about the Book of Mormon. John the Baptist returned to restore the Priesthood of Aaron to Joseph Smith. Peter, James, and John returned to restore the Melchizedek Priesthood to Joseph Smith. Moses, Elias, and Elijah returned to bestow various priesthood keys upon Joseph Smith.


What solution did Joseph Smith come up with to stop religious persecution?

Joseph Smith attempted to employ the same solution to religious persecution as the Puritans of England, that is, he tried to move away. He moved from New York to Ohio to Missouri to Illinois, but it didn't work. He was murdered. His successor moved to Utah. That was much farther. That worked.


What year did the Mormons make their first trek?

In the winter of 1847, the Mormons first left Illinois. They traveled as far as Omaha, Nebraska where they build a temporary settlement to wait for spring to come. When spring came, they made their preparations and continued their journey to the Great Salt Lake Valley. In the years that followed many more Mormons would make the same trek. Technically the "Mormons," or followers of Joseph Smith, made their first trek in January-February 1831 from upstate New York to Kirtland, Ohio.


What are the bad things that they say about Mormons?

Many things that people say against Mormons simply come from someone who is uninformed or has a different opinion. This does not mean that it is bad, but it is often offensive. Those who are uninformed or misinformed often say: -Mormons are polygamist (this practice was banned by the church over 120 years ago in 1890) -Mormons dont believe in the Bible (Mormons consider the King James Version of the Bible as sacred scripture and are encouraged to study it daily) -Mormons don't believe in Jesus (Mormons believe that Jesus Christ is their Savior, just like all Christians) -Mormons are cultish (Mormons live and dress and act just like most anyone else in society. They do not live on compunds, etc.) -Mormons worship Joseph Smith (Mormons believe Joseph Smith was a prophet, just like Moses or Abraham, not a god to be worshipped) -Mormons kidnap, brainwash, coerce, etc (Mormons wish everyone to make their own decisions, and define their standards by Scripture) Those who have different opinions and say things that are offensive to Mormons often say: -Mormons are not Christian (Mormons are not traditional Protestant Christians, but they do still believe in the Bible and salvation through Jesus Christ.) -Mormons are lying (Mormons honestly believe they are telling the truth) -Mormonism is a pyramid scheme (Mormons believe in paying a Tithe and in missions work to gain converts, but believe this is Biblically based and do not seek converts for monetary gain) -Mormons are unbiblical (Mormons believe that they are following the Bible very strictly, but the Bible can be interpreted differently by different people) -Mormonism is false (this is obviously just an opinion, but one that is often offensive to those who honestly believe)

Why did the mormons leave New York who was the founder pf their religion and what happended to him?

The Mormons left New York only a year after the church was founded there. This was due to two reasons. First, they weren't being treated very well. Second, a large group had converted near Kirtland Ohio. There were so many converts that more Mormons lived in Kirtland than in New York. Church leadership decided it would be best to move there and encouraged members to come along so that everyone could be together. Some small congregations continued in New York for several years. Mormons (members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) believe that Jesus Christ founded their church through a modern prophet, Joseph Smith. He and his brother were shot and killed in Carthage, Illinois in June 1844. Check out the "Related Links" to learn more about Mormons, Joseph Smith, and the founding of the church.
