True or False The personages Joseph saw told him that Jesus was the son of God They also told him that Jesus was crucified for the sins of the world The two personages also told Joseph that the second coming was close They forgave Joseph of his sins

True or False Joseph rejoiced and was filled with peace and love after the vision He was valiant in declaring what he had seen and heard in that grove of trees Joseph was persecuted for reporting his vision Joseph received no further instructions for over 3 years following this experience
