Sister Eliza R. Snow recalled: “Many who had been humble and faithful to the performance of every duty—ready to go and come at every call of the Priesthood—were getting haughty in their spirits, and lifted up in the pride of their hearts. As the Saints drank in the love and spirit of the world, the Spirit of the Lord withdrew from their hearts.”2

This was a woman that was never legally married to Smith - nevertheless was married to him in mock ceremonies twice. The first without the knowledge of Smith's only legal wife, the second to deceive Emma into thinking that he had no previous relation with her. A woman that aspired to share the bed of Smith without his wife's knowledge?
What spirit is this woman actually describing?
Under what spirit did she state these words?
A lying and whoring spirit?
How can this woman remain the jewel of Mormonism?

That she did. What a trophy to do a wife that was done by your predessesor. I can see why Emma had no desire to go West.
Bitter fruits?
