Even if you don't believe he restored any of it.

Hmmmm. It seems both, not just ordinances and authority. https://www.LDS.org/scriptures/gs/restoration-of-the-gospel

I would agree with both. Being that the scriptures are supposed to be accounts and documentation pertaining to the restored gospel. Also, since the scriptures are supposed to contain continuing "further light and knowledge", and instruction, I wonder what we are missing in the sealed portion.

When I was younger, I imagined that by the time I was an adult with my own family, that we would have received the sealed portion.
So you're chasing around a fly and in your world, I'm the idiot?

I like how Joseph Smith "restored" the original text of the Old Testament by inserting himself as the great prophet to come forth in the final dispensation. :rolleyes:
