Some Brigham Young quotes: *“your own blood must atone for some sins.” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 3, p. 247) *“you must confess Joseph Smith as a prophet of God in order to be saved.” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 9, p. 312). *”My discourses are as good as Scripture.” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 13, p. 264) *“I have never given any counsel that was wrong.” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 16, p. 161) *Brigham Young compared his sermons with scripture. (Journal of Discourses, vol. 13, p. 95) *”You are damned if you deny polygamy.” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 11, p. 269) *”You can't get to the highest heaven without Joseph Smith's consent.” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 7, p. 289) *”God was progressing in knowledge.” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 6, p. 120). *”Jesus' birth was as natural as ours.” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 8, p. 115) *”God the Father and Mary 'do it.'”(Journal of Discourses, vol. 4, p. 218); (Journal of Discourses, vol. 8, p. 115) *”Jesus was not begotten by the Holy Spirit.” (Journal of Discourses, vol. 1, p. 51). Brigham Young taught that Adam was God. (Journal of Discourses, vol. 1, p. 50) If you regard the above as Blblical, you either need a new Bible (preferably KJV), or to have your head examined.
