The part of taking off their garments is true. However the details are much different than common assumed . Joseph recommended to the group that went with him that they not wear them because " it was too hot' . Everyone except Willard Richards followed Joseph's example . After they were in the jail . The accounts differ in some details but the consensus is that Joseph sent Stephen Markham ( or the jailer's assistant) out to buy wine ( and probably tobacco )so that their spirits might be" lifted". Markham went out and bought the wine but the jailer would not let him rejoin the group . He did take the wine to the prisoners and their spirits were lifted. A few hours later the mob attacked and Joseph and Hyrum were killed and John Taylor seriously wounded .Richards was not harmed at all . Hence all the faith promoting stories about the efficacy of wearing garments

Now wait just a damn minute?

Markan went out to purchase wine? and tabacco? The kind you drink and enjoy,...err....and the kind you smoke?

I am REALLY loosing my testimony now! Inconceivable!

Why can JS take off his garments and drink alcohol and smoke tobacco. Oh wait...he didn't drink it cuz it was non-alcohol kind.

AND HE DIDN'T INHALE!

Phew. Glad that faith crisis stuff has passed. Almost lost my testimony over that!!!

And lest we all forget, he did NOT HAVE SEX WITH THAT WOMAN! If he did, Brian Hales would have said so.

So there...(i say with sarcasm...)

It was grape juice, I am sure.
