Joseph Smith

At age 14 Joseph Smith goes into the woods to pray vocally even though he admits that he ’scarcely’ ever prayed.
When he starts to pray a ’darkness’ came around him that he says was trying to destroy him. He claims that this darkness was a being from an unseen world with marvellous powers.
Just before Smith felt this being about to kill him a great beam of light appeared, revealing God the Father, and Jesus Christ which chase the being away from him. He then asks which church should he join, and is told by Jesus that all churches are an “abomination in his sight”, and that Smith was to restore the true church.

Smith’s church claims that God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit are all Gods, but not one in the same.

Joseph Smith prays for forgiveness of sins, and a manifestation. Upon calling for a ’divine manifestation’ an angel named Moroni appears to him. He tells Smith about the ’everlasting gospel’ that was written on gold disks, also of two magic stones named Urim and Thummim that were in silver bows connected to a breastplate. Moroni continued that the two stones that were buried with the gold disks would be used to translate the disks.

Moroni left and appeared two more times, to repeat the exact same thing over again, adding very little new information to the end of his speech both times.
When Moroni left for the third time the Smith says the cock crowed - this paralleling the denying of Christ three times by Peter before the cock crowed in the books of Matthew 26:74, Mark 14:68-72, Luke 22:60-61, and John 18:27.
The next day Moroni appears again to Smith and Moroni repeats the exact same thing to Smith a fourth time, and then tells Smith to go tell his father of the vision.

The angel Moroni tells Joseph Smith to dig up the gold disks, and then put them back.

Smith claims that his family told Oliver Cowdery about the gold disks and Cowdery showed up at Smith’s house to inquiry about the disks.

Joseph Smith begins using the magic rocks that came with the gold disks to translate it into the book of Mormon. Oliver Cowdery was the scribe.

Once again Joseph Smith, and Oliver Cowdery go into the woods and pray where John the Baptist tells them how to baptize one another (in the Susquehanna River) to be come ’Aaronic Priests’. Also that he (John) acts under Peter, James and John who could make the two men into ’Melchizedek Priests’.
Smith also becomes the ’First Elder of the Church’

Peter, James and John (the apostles of Jesus) come to Joseph Smith, and Oliver Cowdery by the Susquehanna River to make them Melchizedek Priests in the cult of Mormon.

Joseph Smith goes to dig up the gold plates in his yearly ritual, but instead the angel Moroni gives them to him and says for Smith to keep the plates and other items safe - until Moroni calls for the plates back.

With a disclaimer on the first page that it contains fallacies the book of mormon is published and given to the public:

“And now, if there are faults they are the mistakes of men; wherefore, condemn not the things of God, that ye may be found spotless at the judgment-seat of Christ.”

Just a day after being initiated into the freemasonry cult he becomes a Master Mason - skipping the second level which is Fellow Craft.
