	:''There has been no end to opposition. There are misinterpretations and misrepresentations of us and of our history, some of it mean-spirited and certainly contrary to the teachings of Jesus Christ and His gospel.

	:''This video has been produced out of love for our Lord Jesus Christ and love for our Mormon and Christian friends.

	However, we find such declarations of love inconsistent with their disappointing behavior as they revile and demean what Latter-day Saint Christians hold dear and sacred. Perhaps we should be asking ~~<i>~~how~~</i>~~ the video's purpose was accomplished rather than if the video's purpose was accomplished. The viewer need only look to their abuse of scripture as we reinstate the apostle Paul's words (in brackets) that they removed in their video presentation.

	Joseph published numerous revelations calling him personally to repent.({{s\|\|DC\|3\|9-10}}, {{s\|\|DC\|5\|21}} for example) He was quick to aid the poor, and the early Church had many poor. As members came, leaving homes and family and most of their worldly possessions behind, they were welcomed, fed, and clothed by the Church and by the Prophet Joseph Smith.
