The bestowal of the Melchizedek priesthood occurred in Harmony, Pennsylvania. [1] The time of travel between Harmony, PA and the Whitmer farm would have been three days. The likelihood of the men traveling back to Harmony at the same time as they did the following is near impossible:
As shown above, after receiving the priesthood they were not yet allowed to ordain each other to the offices within that priesthood. They were told to “defer this our ordination until such times as it should be practicable to have our brethren, who had been and who should be baptized, assembled together, when we must have their sanction to our proceeding to ordain each other.” [3]
There are many times[4] when Oliver confirmed without error that the sequence of events occurred as shown above.[5]
