		Smith's further dictation of the Book of Mormon also stated that there were "two churches only; the one is the church of the Lamb of God, and the other is the church of the devil".
		Smith and Cowdery, according to their 1831 account, were each ordained as "an apostle of Jesus Christ, an elder of the church".
		Smith taught that this church was a restoration of the primitive Christian church established by Jesus in the first century A.D. Moreover, Smith taught that this restoration occurred in the "Latter Days" of the world, i.e., the time immediately prior to the Second Coming of Jesus.

	The William Smith Accounts of Joseph Smith's First Vision
		William Smith was five years younger than Joseph, which made him nine at the time of Joseph's first vision and twelve at the time of the visitation of the angel Moroni.
		Although William only responded to questions and did not relate a narrative of the first vision, it is clear that mentally he still superimposed the events of the 1820 first vision and those of the 1823 appearance of the angel Moroni.
		William Smith was born March 13, 1811, and the date of the first vision is only given by Joseph as the Spring of 1820.

	Chapter 1 ORIGIN AND HISTORY OF MORMONISM
		If Joseph Smith was a deceiver, who willfully attempted to mislead the people, then he should be exposed; his claims should be refuted, and his doctrines shown to be false, for the doctrines of an impostor cannot be made to harmonize in all particulars with divine truth.
		Joseph Smith's story claims that in 1820 there was a religious excitement in Palmyra in which "great multitudes united themselves to the different religious parties." He said that revival caused him to ask God which church was right and that God the Father and Jesus Christ appeared and told him they were all wrong.
		Mormons cannot reject the messages of earlier LDS apostles and prophets without affecting the validity of their current prophet and apostles.

		William Smith's 1883 account seems to confuse the first vision with the first visit of the angel Moroni, which did occur when Joseph was 17 (WILLIAM SMITH ON MORMONISM, This Book Contains a True Account of the Origin of the Book of Mormon, Printed at Herald Steam Book and Job Office, Lamoni, Iowa.
		William was around seventy years old at the time he published this account; he was about ten at the time of the vision, and as he says, he attended the meetings with the rest, but being quite young and inconsiderate, did not take so much interest in the matter as the older ones did.
		At this time, because of Joseph Smith's heavy involvement in politics and being subject to a trial in Missouri, he turned over the editorial responsibilities of the periodical to John Taylor in 1842, and did not get a chance to read and correct the mistake before the article was published.

	Joseph Smith's First Vision Accounts
		It is true that we have little in writing from Joseph Smith before 1832, when he wrote his earliest account of the First Vision, and it is true that the main account we use of the 1820 First Vision was written in 1838.
		A newly popular argument against Joseph Smith is that the chronology of the First Vision story given in the "official" 1838 account of that event is incorrect, suggesting that he fabricated the story long after the spring of 1820, when he said that the First Vision occurred.
		If Paul were Joseph Smith, critics would accuse him of fabricating new twists to his story and contradicting himself, but I feel it's more fair to believe that both Paul and Joseph were relating different parts of their visionary experiences.
