Any individual that is a member of the Church of latter-day Saints is actually from the Mormon religion. Their most beloved leader was Joseph Smith who firstvision was the discoverer of the Mormon religion. Quite often you would hear the Mormons talk about the first vision.

There are many different stories that go around about Josephs first vision and of the details surrounding it. Some say he was 14 others say he was 17 and then there are those that say he was 12. The story goes that he felt the need for direction to decide on which religion to join. Religion was at its peak in New York at this time and this is where Joseph and his family were residing. Joseph became very confused as to which was the proper religion. It is said that he spent two years of researching and decided that nobody really was teaching the New Testament but he was led to going to the Methodist church

He then purportedly turned to God in the woods near New York asking which church he should join. The one story says that at this time Joseph was surrounded in darkness and then a light came upon him and two persons appeared to him. One was the heavenly Father and his son Jesus Christ. According to Joseph. he states that he asked these heavenly bodies of what church he should join and was told that none of them because they were all wrong and that the fullness of the gospel of the truth would be revealed to him at another time.

Joseph told his family what happened and they believed him although many others did not and he was soon made a mockery of.

Joseph stood steadfast in his beliefs and nothing was going to sway him from this. He states that when he left the woods he was assured that the God head was up to three persons, separate individuals. He was also convinced that God hears and answers prayers. He was also of the mind that none of the churches were truthful and that he would be the one that would set the true religion

There was no doubt that the Joseph was feverish in his pursuit of this new religion. This is where the Mormon religion got its grounding. From just a few followers in no time at all is following grew to the thousands. It is now one of the top 10 religions in the United States. There seems to be no end to its growing and the modern name for the Mormon church now is the Church of the latter-day Saints.

On the surface of the Mormons appeared to believe very much as to that which is taught in the King James version of the Holy Bible. It is when you go beyond the surface where you will see the vast difference. It is the major differences that causes quite a dissent between the standard Christianity beliefs and values and the doctrine in what the Mormons believe.
