Church of Christ (Temple Lot)
In the Church of Christ (Temple Lot) the Council of Twelve serves as the head of the church. The church seeks to strictly follow the church organization of the Bible and the Book of Mormon, and teaches that church offices added by Joseph Smith, Jr. after publication of the Book of Commandments, such as a President of the Church and a First Presidency, were not consistent with the Bible and Book of Mormon, and therefore were not revelations from God. (Sheldon 1999)

Famous quotes containing the words church and/or christ:
“It is time that the Protestant Church, the Church of the Son, should be one again with the Roman Catholic Church, the Church of the Father. It is time that man shall cease, first to live in the flesh, with joy, and then, unsatisfied, to renounce and to mortify the flesh.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Not one man is forgiven! East, West, North, South!
I bite off their dingbats. Christ rots in my mouth.
I curse the seed of my father that put me here
for when I die there’ll be no one to say: Oh No!
Oh dear.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
