Piecing Together Priesthood Restoration | Investigating Altered Priesthood Accounts

from Behind The Veil

In this episode, we dive into the evolving story of the Priesthood Restoration in the LDS Church. Did John the Baptist really appear to Joseph Smith to restore the Aaronic Priesthood? Did Peter, James, and John actually visit Joseph to bestow the Melchizedek Priesthood? Or was it someone else, like Lyman Wight, who ordained Joseph? We explore how these stories have changed over time, and whether the idea of the Melchizedek Priesthood even aligns with Christ's original church—or if it’s a later invention. This could be a backdated narrative, crafted to reinforce the Church’s claims. Join us as we sift through the history and question what really happened.
