Zebedee Coltrin related a vision in the Temple in Kirtland After the school of the Prophets was organized He said while sitting in council a personage passed through the room dressed in usual clothing Joseph said that was the Savior soon another personage passed through the House clothed in fire his features & feet were visable but his body was ^w^rapted in flames Joseph said that was God the Father. He said He was with Joseph & another Man in the woods praying and Heavens was opened and they saw a Man sitting upon a Throne whose hair was white as wool & a woman sitting beside of him Both dressed in white Joseph said it was Adam & Eve
