Thanks for your testimony Polish!
What a blessed day we live in to have living and breathing apostles and prophets!

If only the president of the LDS Church can receive revelation for the church, why are the books of the New Testament written by different people? Even Mormons agree Paul was never the head of the church. Shouldn't the apostles of Mormonism be as authoritative as Paul?
How many false prophecies could a prophet give and still be a true prophet? In Deut. 18:20-22 God declares that all his prophecies must come true.

Where did you get the information that only the President of the Church can receive revelations for the church?
Our president is not the only living prophet. He also has two councilors and there is a Quorum of 12 Apostles. They are all prophets and they all receive revelations - some of which they share with the whole Church. They are then recorded. We listen to their words and accept them as the word of God.
Call us - and ancient Israelites and Christians crazy. 8-)

I've been told that LDS people believe God is continually giving new revelation to their prophet. How do you guard against false teachings?
If your prophet gave a revelation that differed from church teachings in the past, how do you determine which to follow?
Christians hold their ministers accountable to the Bible. (See Galatians 1:7-12 and 1 John 4:1) The early Christians compared Paul's teachings with the Old Testament in Acts 17:11-12. What is the standard for Mormons?

Hi again - Exodus! You are cheating - my friend. Didn't you know that Spamming isn't cool? I responded to these identical questions before. 8-)
Ok - I will try again. God never gives revelations that contradict His previous ones. Prophets do make mistakes sometimes though - their words can be considered as new revelation if 1. they are in harmony with the scriptures (Bible, Book of Mormon, etc.) and 2. are accepted as revelation by all living apostles.
