Joseph Smith boasted that he did more than Jesus to keep a church together. What an incredibly godly and humble man!
"I have more to boast of than ever any man had. I am the only man that has ever been able to keep a whole church together since the days of Adam. A large majority of the whole have stood by me. Neither Paul, John, Peter, nor Jesus ever did it. I boast that no man ever did such a work as I. The followers of Jesus ran away from Him, but the Latter-day Saints never ran away from me yet. https://carm.org/mormonism/joseph-smith-boasted-that-he-did-more-than-jesus-to-keep-a-church-together/
That's curious. I'll have to look it up and dig into it's context because something is odd sounding about that.
Unfortunately it can't be for awhile because my house is in disarray as we are redoing our floors. That is supposed to be my time focus right now.
Remind me in a month to look this up?
Sure you can find it in History of the Church, vol. 6, p. 408-409.
