- About the translation of the Book of Mormon with focus on the attempts to steal the gold plates and the loss of the 116 manuscript pages. In 1982 it was re-edited into a shorter format and retitled "A Marvelous Work Begins" ( • A Marvelous Work Begin... ).
Love the film. Tells the story well. Thankyou so much for posting on utube.
Joseph Smith certainly endured his share of hardship. I admire his resilience in the face of such continuous opposition.
Where did you find these videos I'm so grateful for you posting this for all of us to see
Loved it . This was such a strong testimony of the truthfulness of the Book Of Mormon . I feel this by the Holy sperit.
Loved the film. Thankyou so much for sharing.
Two years later Lucy Harris would leave her husband, and would die six years after that.
Hope new movies Will be made soon love 2 watch this again again and again
Thanks for loud up !
I've found the source of the ticking noise! It's a pipe bomb! (Voldemort, Voldemort, Oh, Voldey Voldemort)
Thanks for uploading this.
Thank you for posting this. It is perfect for teaching my Primary class.
Janice LeFevre nothing like some pure fiction for your class.
God will hold you accountable for misleading His children.
Z Z 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I always loved videos like this in primary class. Always brought the spirit in.
The most correct book on earth. Was that before or after the 3913 changes. Many of which were significant doctrinal changes?
I am very blessed just to know that even without this strong evidence show on this video. I still know with a deep testimony that the great prophet Joseph was called of God and that he is the main witness of The Living Christ and The Father.
that how Im too; greatest foundation of my life;
'I should have listened to the lord?' He did.. The Lord gave it the go ahead on the 3rd try.
I have kept my eye out for this video for 20 years. Thank you. I love this video because the actor who plays Joseph Smith portrays his strong, caring, devoted, and "easy to be entreated" (James 3:17) personality so well.
I prefer the Southpark version which is probably more true
@@robbierobertson3263 Exactly. South Park portrayed him perfectly. A con man.
And he didn't even use the plates to translate. Just his treasure hunting stone and his hat.
You read it?
Cesar if you look up Urim and Thumin on Wikepedia you will find by one of the smartest Jewish scholars who ever lived that the Urim and Thimim were stones that God transmitted messages on. Joseph Smith did not like the Urim and Thumin stones because he did not like the glasses they went with. So he used a hat and stone instead. It does not matter. God used a rock to communicate. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urim_and_Thummim
This is like an episode of Bonanza
God won that battle against Lucifer.
J. Cesar. According to Joseph Smith and other accurate sources he used the brim and thumim with the plates to translate The Book of Mormon. I will be
glad to share references. The movie is correct.

I have sympathy for Mrs Harris. It couldn't have been easy being married to a man who was as preoccupied as he seems to have been with metaphysical matters. It was sensible of her to want to want to know more about the book her husband was going to pay to publish. In this film she is portrayed as snobbish. She upbraids her husband in front of others. Do we have any evidence of what she was really like as a person?
The Book of Mormon is true. I asked God if he was there to let me know if it was true or false and I felt the most overwhelming peaceful feelings I had never felt before. It was clarity and love all at the same time. People may mock but it’s true I would be a liar if I said it wasn’t. I know it and I know God knows I know it.
Thank you for sharing your awesome experience with the promptings of the Holy Ghost, I’ve been a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of latter day Saints all my life, and at the age of 33, I was given a wonderful experience with The Holy Ghost, helping me to understand how I ask for the Thy Savior’s help and then how to listen for His answers.
I pray that you will have faith to believe your prayers will be answered. You are a valiant daughter of our Father in heaven.
Robert Brigham Ord found the Book of Law to which is transfered as the LBM or manuscripts... or say this is adherant to his first son I, Elder Casey Ryan Ord would like to replace this into the prior records of the current scripture class distinction, but can't be done until a Temple recommend is echonerated by myself....
There's a great book by an LDS author that shows that there's perfect harmony between the prophetic statements concerning the garden of Eden being in Missouri and the Old Testament account concerning the garden of Eden. It's called Canaan, Babylon, and Egypt A Comparative Theological Analysis on Creation sold by Eborn Books.
Who knew Mormonism was so campy
So many puffy shirts.
So Very True!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
In 1826, just 4 years before Joseph Smith published the book of Mormon, he was charged in Bainbridge NY with defrauding local farmers by claiming to be able to find hidden gold buried in the ground by the means of looking at peep stones in his hat while his face was buried in it. The exact means by which he claimed to have translated the plates. He met Emma, the first of his thirty some wives while defrauding local farmers in Tioga County. His father often accompanied him in the treasure fraud. In fact his father attended a weird Congregational church back in Vermont before moving to Palmyra, that used divining rods to search for things including treasure, and according to one who interviewed people back in Vermont some years after Mormonism began, described the Elder Smith as "one of the leading rod men" of the church. The elder Smith is the one who led Joseph into the sin of occult divining rods and peep stones to search for imaginary treasure of buried gold, even defrauding local farmers in his own town, like Martin Harris. Martin Harris' wife was known to some in Palmyra at the time as the one who took and possibly destroyed the first manuscript to prevent the fraud from being perpetrated on her gullible husband. In the end there was no restraining his foolish error and they did indeed lose much of their farm. Joseph Smith gave Martin Harris the right to sell the Books of Mormon to recoup his mortgage to his farm. But nobody wanted the book and Martin lost 151 acres of his farm.
🥱
There is zero record of Joseph Smith, ever claiming to use PEEP stones to translate the book of Mormon. He never claimed it. Oliver Cowdrey never claimed it either. And then none of the revelations in the doctrine and covenants does the Lord ever mention a peep, stone, or seer stone, to be used to translate the book of Mormon. Furthermore, the three witnesses to the Book of Mormon testified not only of the golden plates, but of the year them and Thummim and the other artifacts. Read their testimony, there is no mention of a seer stone or “peep” stone.
Sorry you’re an unbeliever of Jesus Christ, the record, the Book of Mormon is the words and teachings of Jesus Christ and He and the Father appeared to Joseph Smith, the Angel Moroni was also an ancient prophet and appeared to Joseph Smith, being commanded by Jesus Christ to instruct Joseph.
@@user-cc3vo8sd3m I can't find one thing he said that is factually incorrect. apart from the fact that, according to Mormon Doctrine, Emma was his 24th wife ( approx) that he got sealed to. And to be honest, you can't assume that he isn't a believer in Jesus Christ from what he said. He just says he doesn't believe in Joseph Smith, which is hardly surprising nowadays, with everything that has come to light about him.
the level of propaganda is insane...
Whats with the white angels? Aren't black people represented by any angels?
Correction on previous comment. It should say, Joseph Smith used the brim ad thumim. Also, for all those who made negative comments, perhaps we could have a blog or someplace to share. I don't do name calling or contention.
BYU made fiction movies? Who knew?
Joseph Smith wrote the whole of the Book of Mormon, just as it has been shown that he wrote The Book of Abraham etc as part of the Pearl of Great Price. The original papyrus was discovered in the late 60’s in the New York Metropolitan Museum and the church does not dispute it. It has been very reliably shown to be nothing of the kind that Smith claimed it to be, rather a common pagan Egyptian funerary document of known wording dating from over a thousand years after the time of Abraham. Some in the highest levels of the church are trying to claim that it was not directly translated in the literal sense, even though Smith himself plainly stated so -even in the introduction to the book itself. In like fashion, he wrote the Book of Mormon. As Jesus said, When the blind follow the blind, they will both fall over a cliff.
LOL!
Jesus Christ said: ‘Fools mock but the shall mourn.’ I invite you to read the Book of Mormon yourself and find the truth. I was also an unbeliever but I read it, found out it is true, was baptized and been a member 57 years! And I’m a Dakota Sioux Indian.
This is pure fiction .
I didn't realize you were there. It must I been interesting times to live in.
Just like yourself
@@caseykaelin2352 you must have been there too if you're so convinced this all happened. Did you find it an interesting time to live in?
Well, you don't have to agree that the Book of Mormon is true, but the rest of the story is true. It did happen this way. People were after the manuscripts and they were lost. So, the movie can't be pure fiction. So, if you are wrong about that, then you can also be wrong about the rest. Something to think about.
No, there are diaries to prove the truth of it! His mother wrote her own life story and others.
Most of this is made up baloney.
Pure crap!
Then why are you seeing this ?
@@shinhaakatsuki2516 because my family and I have been scammed by this phony church
Truth is truth my friend! Almost right from get go Joseph Smith was attacked left right and center right up to the day they murdered him. Why was he opposed so much from get go? Satan's ultimate plan is to destroy the souls of men by removing God and His doctrines out the way so that people remain in a lost and fallen state. This is why Satan and his followers went out of their way to try and frustrate God's work so the true knowledge of Salvation wouldn't get to mankind.
But as you can see today their murderous plans did not work. God's plan prevailed and today so many people have the true knowledge of God's plan of salvation.
Even today Satan's followers go about doing his work to try and pull down God's work. It never worked back then even by killing Joseph it didn't work. God's work will continue to power through even with all these obstacles.
We live in the last decade of when the second coming of Jesus Christ comes. Now is the time for you to choose this day whom you will serve. You now have the option to seek diligently with all your heart might and strength and come to the knowledge of it's truthfulness and be found on Christ's side or continue thinking that you have been scammed. The ball is in your court. You make the decision.
I invite you to seek after the truth by asking God directly with true intentions & pure heart and he will let you know. But you must be true in order to receive an answer.
I testify to you that this is God's work.
Be wise. Seek diligently.
@Scott Wardle so your saying your religion is true? shame on u
@Scott Wardle the Book of Mormon is true and real the spirit of God pricked my heart and there’s no counterfeiting the love and power of God. I believe in Jesus Christ and in his Father and I asked God to show me truth and I trust in my loving Father to show me His way not anything else but God the Father of my Savior Jesus Christ. All you have to do is ask having faith in Christ and he will manifest the truth unto you by the power of the Holy Ghost and by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of ALL things.
