Joseph Smith, Jr. organized the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) and was considered the president and prophet of that Church from it's founding in 1830 until his murder in 1845, after which time Brigham Young took his place. During his childhood and teenage years, Joseph attended a number of Christian churches with his family, including Methodists, Baptists, and Presbyterians, but was never baptized into any of them.
Joseph Smith was a religious leader. Whether or not you believe that the religion he lead or that all religious are cult-like is your opinion.
I believe you are thinking of Joseph Smith, and his starting of the Mormon religion
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) celebrate Joseph Smith as a prophet of God.
No I didn't know that. Do you know that Christianity is not about religion, it is about relationship a person's relationship with God.
You might be thinking of Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery.
No, the Mormon religion was founded by Joseph Smith and Brigham Young.
no. Joseph Smith was the founder of mormanism.
They weren't. None of the known members of the mob that killed Joseph Smith were in the Donner Party. The Donner Party did have two families which had connections to Mormonism. There has been some disagreement as to whether they were practicing Mormons or if they had left the religion at an earlier time, but none of them were party to the murder of Joseph Smith.
Joseph Smith was the person who restored the church. He was the first prophet...but if anybody ever says so, we DO NOT worship him!!!! I know you didn't but...whatever :) Mormonism is a religion, also known as LDS or the actual "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints". Joseph Smith is the founder of this religion, Mormons believe that a more accurate than founder would be restorer as he acted as a servant of God to restore the primitive church read about in the bible.
Upon his birth, Joseph Smith was named Joseph Smith. Throughout his life he was called Joseph Smith, Jr. because his father's name is also Joseph Smith. His son was named Joseph Smith, III. His enemies often referred to him as Joe Smith. This was intended to be very disrespectful, and it was often offensive.
No, Joseph Smith is not mentioned in the Bible.
