6 Attention Activity There will be many people in our lives telling us what to do. We can trust some of them to give us good advice. Others we cannot trust.

7 Attention Activity To whom should we listen to receive good advice?

8 Attention Activity To whom should we listen to receive good advice? Our Parents Our Teachers The Prophet

9 Attention Activity We should always listen to what the prophet says, because he tells us what Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ want us to do.

10 Attention Activity The prophet receives instructions from Heavenly Father and Jesus for the entire Church.

11 Attention Activity We should never listen to someone who tells us to do something different from what the prophet says.

12 Attention Activity We re going to show you some directions that the Prophet may give. If you think it is what the Prophet would say, raise your hand.

13 Attention Activity The prophet says it is OK to use a bad word once in a while.

14 Attention Activity The prophet says pay a full tithing.

15 Attention Activity The prophet says one-tenth is too much; just pay what you can afford.

16 Attention Activity The prophet says never swear or use bad language.

17 Attention Activity In the early days of the Church, a few other people besides the Prophet Joseph Smith claimed they were receiving revelations for the whole Church.

18 Attention Activity Church members were getting confused about whom they should listen to and what they should do.

19 Attention Activity The Lord gave instructions, which are now published in the Doctrine and Covenants, to the members of the Church about who would receive revelations for the whole Church.

20 Attention Activity This is what today s lesson is about.

21 Lesson 15: The Prophet Receives Revelation for the Church Lesson 15: The Prophet Receives Revelation for the Church, Primary 5: Doctrine and Covenants: Church History, (1997),76

22 While Joseph and Emma Smith were living in Harmony, Pennsylvania, a few months after the Church was organized, Oliver Cowdery disagreed with the wording of one of the revelations Joseph had received from the Lord. Oliver wrote to Joseph Smith and said, I command you in the name of God to erase those words!

23 Joseph immediately wrote back to Oliver and asked him by what authority he took upon him to command me to alter or erase, to add to or diminish from, a revelation or commandment from Almighty God

24 A short time later Joseph and Emma went to Fayette, New York, where they found that Oliver Cowdery and the Whitmer family were convinced that this revelation Joseph had received had an error and should be changed. Joseph spent much time trying to reason with Oliver and the Whitmers. Eventually Christian Whitmer became convinced that the revelation was correct as Joseph had given it, and he helped convince the others.

25 Oliver Cowdery and the Whitmers were also studying some revelations that Hiram Page, one of the Eight Witnesses of the gold plates, claimed he had received from a seer stone. Hiram Page said he could see revelations in this stone.

26 Among other things, he said he had received by revelation instructions on the location of Zion, the place where the Church was to go to establish the kingdom of God on the earth. Many people believed the things that Hiram Page said.

27 Joseph Smith was concerned that others were claiming to receive revelations for the Church. He decided to deal with the problem at a conference that would be held soon.

28 Before the conference Joseph prayed, and the Lord revealed Doctrine and Covenants 28, which said that Joseph Smith was the only one authorized to receive revelation for the whole Church.

29 Other people also claimed to have received revelation for the Church. One of these was a woman named Hubble. According to John Whitmer, she appeared to be very religious, and some people were misled by her.

30 Joseph Smith prayed to Heavenly Father about the problem and received Doctrine and Covenants 43 as an answer. This revelation says that the prophet of the Church, whether Joseph Smith or someone who would be called to be prophet after Joseph, is the only one who receives revelation for the entire Church.

31 Discussion Time

32 Who was originally appointed to receive commandments and revelations for the whole Church? (D&C 28:2; 43:2 5.) Why was this done? (D&C 43:6.)

33 Why was this done? (D&C 43:6.) What might happen if several people received revelation at the same time for the whole Church?

34 Why was this done? (D&C 43:6.) What might happen if several people received revelation at the same time for the whole Church? If they disagreed, members of the Church would not know whom to follow.

35 Why was this done? (D&C 43:6.) What might happen if several people received revelation at the same time for the whole Church? If they disagreed, members of the Church would not know whom to follow. Who is the only person who receives revelation for the whole Church today

36 Why was this done? (D&C 43:6.) What might happen if several people received revelation at the same time for the whole Church? If they disagreed, members of the Church would not know whom to follow. Who is the only person who receives revelation for the whole Church today? The living prophet.

37 What should we do if someone other than the prophet says he or she has received revelation that Church members should follow? (D&C 43:5 6.)

38 How can we find out what the living prophet says?

39 What is the difference between the teachings of the living prophet and those of other Church leaders? (D&C 28:1 2, 4 5.) Joseph Smith s name in Doctrine and Covenants 28:2 can be replaced by the name of the living prophet. Does this mean we should not listen to anyone but the prophet? Other Church leaders can also teach us and give us instruction.

40 What is the difference between the teachings of the living prophet and those of other Church leaders? (D&C 28:1 2, 4 5.) Joseph Smith s name in Doctrine and Covenants 28:2 can be replaced by the name of the living prophet. Does this mean we should not listen to anyone but the prophet? Explain that other Church leaders can also teach us and give us instruction.

41 However, only the prophet can tell us what the Lord has commanded us as a Church to do.

42 For whom can we receive revelation? We each can receive personal revelation for our own lives. We can also receive revelation according to our responsibilities; for example, fathers and mothers receive revelation for their families, the Primary president can receive revelation for the Primary in her ward, the Bishop can receive revelation for the ward.

43 What does the living prophet have that no other person has?

44 What does the living prophet have that no other person has? The authority, or keys, to receive revelation for the entire Church (D&C 28:7.)

45 What did Hiram Page do wrong?

46 What did Hiram Page do wrong? He claimed to have received revelation for the Church.

47 How does the Lord s instruction to Oliver Cowdery in Doctrine and Covenants 28:11 show the Lord s love for Hiram Page even though he needed to repent?

48 How do we know that the Lord loves us even when we are disobedient?

49 How might the Lord let us know when we have done something wrong?

50 Let s read Doctrine and Covenants 28: For all things must be done in order, and by common consent in the church, by the prayer of faith.

51 Common consent means that all the members of the Church accept the instructions and decisions of Church leaders. How do we show common consent today?

52 Common consent means that all the members of the Church accept the instructions and decisions of Church leaders. How do we show common consent today? By raising our hands to sustain the actions of our Church leaders.

53 Common consent means that all the members of the Church accept the instructions and decisions of Church leaders. How do we show common consent today? By raising our hands to sustain the actions of our Church leaders. What does it mean to sustain our leaders?

54 Common consent means that all the members of the Church accept the instructions and decisions of Church leaders. How do we show common consent today? By raising our hands to sustain the actions of our Church leaders. What does it mean to sustain our leaders? We promise to support and help them

55 Enrichment Activities

56 Enrichment Activity 2 It is always wise to follow the prophet, even if we do not completely understand why he tells us to do something. If we follow the prophet, we will be doing what the Lord wants us to do. (see D&C 1:38).

57 Enrichment Activity 2 President Wilford Woodruff, the fourth President of the Church said: - The Lord will never permit me or any other man who stands as president of this Church to lead you astray

58 Enrichment Activity 2 The prophet will never ask us to do something that the Lord does not want us to do.

59 Enrichment Activity 3 When you raise your hands to sustain people in their callings, we promise to support and help them in their callings. This is called common consent.

60 Enrichment Activity 3 Can you think of ways you can help and support Church leaders such as the bishop, the Primary president, your Primary teacher, and your parents in their Church callings.

61 Enrichment Activity 4 Does anyone have the ninth article of faith memorized

62 Enrichment Activity 4 9 We believe all that God has revealed, all that He does now reveal, and we believe that He will yet reveal many great and important things pertaining to the Kingdom of God.

63 Enrichment Activity 5 Let s sing Follow the Prophet The first verse listed you should all know.

64 Follow the Prophet 1. Adam was a prophet, first one that we know. In a place called Eden, he helped things to grow. Adam served the Lord by following his ways. We are his descendants in the latter days. Chorus Follow the prophet, follow the prophet, Follow the prophet; don't go astray. Follow the prophet, follow the prophet, Follow the prophet; he knows the way. Words and music: Duane E. Hiatt, b (c) 1989

65 Enrichment Activity 6 Some new versus were added. Let s try to sing them.
