The proper channels for revelation


Recommended Posts

This quote was used as a basis to reject my claim to be the Lord's Anointed Prophet.

Quote

“We can accept nothing as authoritative but that which comes directly through the appointed channel, the constituted organizations of the Priesthood, which is the channel that God has appointed through which to make known His mind and will to the world. … And the moment that individuals look to any other source, that moment they throw themselves open to the seductive influences of Satan, and render themselves liable to become servants of the devil; they lose sight of the true order through which the blessings of the Priesthood are to be enjoyed; they step outside of the pale of the kingdom of God, and are on dangerous ground. Whenever you see a man rise up claiming to have received direct revelation from the Lord to the Church, independent of the order and channel of the Priesthood, you may set him down as an imposter” (Gospel Doctrine, 5th ed. [1939], 41–42).

Interestingly, this quote affirms the importance of making sure what I claim is valid or not because this quote ends by qualifying the warning as follows:
"independent of the order and channel of the Priesthood". 

The thing is, I am claiming to be the proper order and channel of the Priesthood.  Everybody says they are awaiting the Messiah, but it appears they are all waiting with clubs looking to beat him to oblivion instead of to be watching for him carefully and diligently as he admonished.

This is a fact:
I am the only person alive on Planet Earth at this time who meets the requirements of the law that the Lord established for how the succession of the mantle of Lord's Anointed Prophet works.

I do not dispute that Russell M. Nelson is the President of the Church and that he duly presides over the LDS Church at this time.  He sits in the seat of Moses, just as Caiaphas of old did.  And, so long as the LDS people are happy to unanimously sustain him, he will continue as such even if he was personally an evil and wicked man. 

God gave the saints the right and the responsibility to impeach a wayward Church President.  If they don't do it when they ought in the eyes of the Lord, they share 100% in the accountability of whatever evils he does as President of the Church.   This is why the Saints are asked whether they sustain or oppose Church officers.  The Church is to be one, meaning all share the accountability together.

The law spoken of in D&C 43:3-5 is for the mantle of Lord's Anointed Prophet, not the President of the Church.  According to the Lord, the office of President of the Church is "chosen by the body".  (D&C 107:21-22)  It is completely different than the presidency of the Priesthood organization of the School of the Prophets.  The keys of the Priesthood were removed from the Church when the Son of Man came in 1890, as prophesied.  The reason nobody could "see" the Son of Man when he came is because the fullness of the Gospel, including the greater things that God kept sealed up due to the unbelief of the people, was taken from them.  Without the knowledge of the Sealed Portion that comes from the book sealed with seven seals, nobody knew that they were actually looking for a body of flesh and bone instead of some super special individual person.

This new priesthood body was commanded by the Lord to be organized.  It is the duly appointed channel that became independent of the Church when the Church was forced by the dragon-serpent to abandon the higher laws.  Unfortunately, because the Saints did not have oil in their lamps, the Son of Man came just as he warned that he would, as if he were a thief in the night.  But, the price paid here is the members of the body of flesh and bone were eventually systematically excommunicated for apostasy.  This is how the Son of Man is crucified afresh and put to an open shame.  The Saints did not know who he truly was and so they spiritually murdered him.

I am now the lawful successor to the mantle of Lord's Anointed Prophet and it is my place to call the Church to order.

I'm not sure if that helps your case.

First, in 1890, the church didn't abandon polygamy.  It ceased in the US until President Woodruff died and then it restarted in the US in an extremely small amount.  Outside of the US, it never ceased.  It wasn't until 1904 when polygamy was finally ceased as a mortal practice.  So, saying that 1890 is when church abandoned the higher laws is incorrect.

Second, what is the line of authority from Joseph Smith to you and how can we tell that that line is unbroken and true?  When did it leave the President of the Church?  Was Brigham Young the "Lord's Anointed Prophet"?  John Taylor?  Wilford Woodruff?
