| | <h1><b>Prophets and Church Leaders</b></h1> |
| ===[[Joseph Smith]]===
| | Latter-day Saints believe that God continues to guide His Church through living prophets, just as He did in biblical and Book of Mormon times. They believe that modern prophets are called by God to testify of Jesus Christ, teach His gospel, reveal God's will, warn against sin, and provide inspired counsel for the needs of the present day. Like the prophets of old, they may also receive revelation concerning future events when the Lord sees fit. Click the links below for faithful answers to questions about prophets. |

| |summary=If every President of the Church is a prophet, seer, and revelator, why have so few revelations after Joseph Smith been added to the Doctrine and Covenants? Revelations used to be printed in Church periodicals such as the Times and Seasons and the Evening and Morning Star. Why are revelations no longer published on an ongoing basis?
