Rich Pierce lists and explains the significant false prophecies of Joseph Smith, as the prophethood of Joseph Smith can be a stumbling block for a Mormon to hear the gospel.
For the overseer must be above reproach as God’s steward, not self-willed, not quick-tempered, not addicted to wine, not pugnacious, not fond of sordid gain, but hospitable, loving what is good, sensible, just, devout, self-controlled, holding fast the faithful word which is in accordance with the teaching, so that he will be able both to exhort in sound doctrine and
