The Prophet Joseph Smith provided insights from his own experience: “But behold the words of the Savior: ‘If the light which is in you become darkness, behold how great is that darkness.’ Look at the dissenters. Again, ‘If you were of the world the world would love its own.’ … But they speak all manner of evil of us falsely, for no other reason than that we have been endeavoring to teach the fullness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ” (Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, 124).
