Preston Purnell examines Joseph Smith and claims that he was a false prophet. Preston addresses how non-LDS Christians often misinterpret Joseph Smith's prophecies due to misunderstandings of scripture and limited knowledge of Smith's life.

The episode covers:

• How Deuteronomy's test of a prophet is commonly misapplied
• Joseph Smith's fulfilled prophecy about the Saints' migration to the Rocky Mountains
• Specific details Smith predicted about the Church's growth in the West
• Why many documented prophecies are overlooked by critics
• The importance of personal revelation in understanding Smith's prophetic role

Preston provides historical context for Smith's prophecies, explains how they were fulfilled despite persecution and apostasy, and encourages listeners to seek truth through their own spiritual inquiry rather than relying on critics' claims.
