September 26 — Key to Science of Theology, pp. 30-31 “By this science three of those Apostles, having a change wrought upon them, tarried in the flesh upon the earth, ministered the Gospel and its blessings nearly four hundred years, and then withdrew from the people because of their iniquity…By this science they yet live in the flesh upon the earth, holding keys of Apostleship and power upon the western hemisphere, being now about one thousand eight hundred years old…
Nor is this all; John, the beloved disciple among the Jews, is yet alive in the flesh, and is held in reserve, to “prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings,” as it is written.” – Parley Pratt

Hebrews 13:9 “Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.”

Wow. According to Mormonism these fellows lived longer than Adam at 930 years and longer than Seth at 912 yrs…
IF these guys were still alive then why the “Great Apostasy”??
Surely the gospel was still on the earth if they were alive, right?
Alas, if you read this man’s “theory” the Church has come up with an excuse for that as well. God prevented them from spreading the gospel because people weren’t acting obediently. My, that’s convenient – oh, what a tangled web they weave…
Pray for Mormons to see the foolishness in teachings like this one.
Pratt wasn’t the only one to come up with this type of thing. The mere fact they hold fast to the BoM is proof they still believe this stuff.
