I've been doing a little investigating of Joseph Smith's teachings about the Holy Ghost, and came across something unusual. The following is from Franklin D. Richards' notes on Joseph Smith's Aug. 27, 1843 sermon in Nauvoo. According to Richards, Joseph Smith taught:

"That the Holy Ghost is now in a state of Probation which if he should perform in righteousness he may pass through the same or similar course of things that the Son has."
