Once or Twice in a Thousand Years

Elder Bruce R. McConkie
Of the Council of the Twelve

Elder McConkie testified that the First Vision was a once-in-a-millennium event when Joseph Smith asked of God and saw the Father and the Son.

“the man and the hour joined hands”
“Search the scriptures. Treasure up gospel truths.”
“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God”
“I saw a pillar of light”
“Man asked and God answered.”
“Joseph Smith saw the Father and the Son.”
