| − | ====Oliver Cowdery====
| + | '''Summary:''' Latter-day Saints affirm that they are "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. . . . Like the prophets of old, prophets today testify of Jesus Christ and teach His gospel. They make known God’s will and true character. They speak boldly and clearly, denouncing sin and warning of its consequences. At times, they may be inspired to prophesy of future events for our benefit."<ref>[https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual/gospel-topics/prophets?lang=eng "Prophets,"] Gospel Topics in Gospel Library.</ref> |
