Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
He was baptized shortly after the Vision was received (section 76). He stated: "My traditions were such, that when the Vision came first to me, it was directly contrary and opposed to my former education.” He was patient, however, as he sought to understand the meaning of this revelation. “I used to think and pray, to read and think,” he recalled, “until I knew and fully understood it for myself.”

Joseph Smith Jr.
There is no end to virtue; There is no end to might; There is no end to wisdom; There is no end to light. There is no end to union; There is no end to youth; There is no end to priesthood; There...
is no end to truth.

What are the FOUR things Jesus Christ has done for us that President Dallin H. Oaks lists in his talk titled "What Has Our Savior Done for Us?"
1. The Resurrection (immortality)
2. The Atonement of Jesus Christ (forgiveness)
3. The Plan of Salvation (commandments/covenants/priesthood)

While living in this home, Joseph Smith also continued work on his revised translation of the Bible. This work was the impetus for many of the revelations that he received during this time. In February 1832, while translating the Gospel of John, Joseph Smith and Sidney Rigdon saw God the Father and Jesus Christ and learned of different kingdoms of glory that people will inherit after they are resurrected (see Doctrine and Covenants 76).
