The living prophet and the apostles today are as lighthouses in the storm. Steer towards the light of the restored gospel and the inspired teachings of those who represent the Lord on earth.

Joseph B. Wirthlin

If you are apostles at all, you are apostles, not of men, nor by man. Your sufficiency is of God.

Joseph Barber Lightfoot

They thought that I did conceive there was a difference between them and Mr. Cotton… I might say they might preach a covenant of works as did the apostles, but to preach a covenant of works and to be under a covenant of works is another business.

Lewis B. Smedes

When I was a deacon, my father took me and my older brother to general priesthood meeting in the Tabernacle. I remember how thrilled I was to be in the presence, for the first time, of the prophet of God, President Heber J. Grant, and the other prophets and apostles.

James E. Faust

One of the earliest resurrection scenes in the Bible is that of Thomas demanding evidence – he wanted to see, to touch, to prove. Those who question and probe and debate are heirs of the apostles just as much as the most fervent of believers.

Jon Meacham

I remember one of my last shows, the Final Jeopardy! clue was something like ‘These two boys’ names are top 10 boys’ names in the U.S., they both end with the same letter, and they’re both names of Jesus’ apostles.’ Now, obviously that’s not a knowable fact.

Mother Angelica

Nevertheless the meaning is not that the blessed bread which is divided, which is offered, and which the apostles received from the hand of Christ was not the body of Christ but becomes the body of Christ when the eating of it is begun.

Martin Chemnitz

This doctrine of Christ and of the apostles, from which the true faith of the primitive church was received, the apostles at first delivered orally, without writing, but later, not by any human counsel but by the will of God, they handed it on in the Scriptures.
