"The Seer [and other writings by Pratt] contain doctrines which we cannot sanction, and which we have felt impressed to disown, so that the Saints who now live, and who may live hereafter, may not be misled by our silence, or be left to misinterpret it.
In order to avoid any confusion or misguidance among the Saints living today and those who will live in the future, we must explicitly disavow certain teachings contained in "The Seer" and other writings by Pratt, which we cannot condone.
