We Follow a Living Prophet
What is a PROPHET?
Prophet As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints, we are blessed to be led by living prophets inspired men called to speak for the Lord, as did Moses, Isaiah, Peter, Paul, Nephi, Mormon, and other prophets of the scriptures.
We sustain the President of the Church as prophet, seer, and revelator the only person on the earth who receives revelation to guide the entire Church. We also sustain the counselors in the First Presidency and the members of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles as prophets, seers, and revelators.
Who is our PROPHET today?
