Redefinition of knowledge is a time-honored Mormon tradition. From an Official Proclamation to the World given on 4/6/1845, most of which the church doesn't talk about any longer since it's all very much old-time religion:
https://archive.bookofmormoncentral.org/content/proclamation-twelve-apostles-church-jesus-christ-latter-day-saints"To all the Kings of the World;
To the President of the United States of America;
To the Governors of the several States;
And to the Rulers and People of all Nations."
[pages of millennarian BS, nonsense, bloviation, etc. snipped]
"[LDS] *know* some *facts* — and these will continue to be *known facts* when death and war in their most horrid forms are raging around them. They cannot shut their eyes upon these facts to please either governors, rulers, or the raging multitude."
"We would now make a solemn appeal to our rulers and other fellow-citizens, whether it is treason to *know*? or even to publish what we *know*? If it is, then strike the murderous blow, but listen to what we say."
[more BS snipped]
"He has revealed the origin and the Records of the aboriginal tribes of America, and their future destiny. — *And we know it.*"
"He has revealed the fulness of the gospel, with its gifts, blessings, and ordinances. — *And we know it.*"
[more snip]
"He has also said that, if [the Gentiles] do not repent, and come to the knowledge of the truth, and cease to fight against Zion, and also put away all murder, lying, pride, priestcraft, whoredom, and secret abomination, they shall soon perish from the earth, and be cast down to hell. — *And we know it.*"
[still more snip]
"He has said, that the Ten Tribes of Israel should also be revealed in the North country, together with their oracles and records, preparatory to their return, and to their union with Judah, no more to be separated. — *And we know it.*"
------
The records of the aboriginal tribes, period. The Gentiles to perish from the earth, soon. The 10 tribes, out of nowhere. No hedging their bets or equivocation. And they KNOW it.
