Some of Joseph Smith’s early scripture differs with his later work. In fact, the Book of Mormon is closer to traditional Bible doctrine, while his more divergent teachings, which distinguish the LDS church, occur in the later Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price, creating a troubling contrast, especially since the Book of Mormon is supposed to contain the “fulness of the gospel.”
