Notes
The Book of Mormon teaches that God is a Spirit (see also 18:26-28; 34:36). Contrast with Doctrine and Covenants 130:22; 130:3.
See also Lectures on Faith as delivered at the School of the Prophets at Kirtland, Ohio: "In our former lectures we treated of the being, character, perfections, and attributes, of God. What we mean by perfections is, the perfections which belong to all the attributes of his nature. We shall, in this lecture, speak of the Godhead-we mean the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. There are two personages who constitute the great, matchless, governing, and supreme power over all things, by whom all things were created and made, that are created and made, whether visible or invisible, whether in heaven, on earth, or in the earth, under the earth, or throughout the immensity of space. They are the Father and the Son-the Father being personage of spirit, glory, and power, possessing all perfection and fullness, the Son, who was in the bosom of the Father, a personage of tabernacle, made or fashioned like unto man...." -Lectures On Faith, Lecture 5.
The Lectures on Faith were removed from the Doctrine and Covenants in 1921.
