The Holy Order of God

Listening to "The Holy Order of God" hosted by Art Bulla on #BlogTalkRadio http://tobtr.com/s/1373139
 
 7 And verily I say unto you, that the conditions of this law are these: All covenants, contracts, bonds, obligations, oaths, vows, performances, connections, associations, or expectations, that are not made and entered into and sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise, of him who is anointed, both as well for time and for all eternity, and that too most holy, by revelation and commandment through the medium of mine anointed, whom I have appointed on the earth to hold this power (and I have appointed unto my servant Joseph to hold this power in the last days, and there is never but one on the earth at a time on whom this power and the keys of this priesthood are conferred), are of no efficacy, virtue, or force in and after the resurrection from the dead; for all contracts that are not made unto this end have an end when men are dead.
 8 Behold, mine house is a house of order, saith the Lord God, and not a house of confusion.
 9 Will I accept of an offering, saith the Lord, that is not made in my name?

   (D&C  132:7-9)
 
 
 

Restoration of the Apostleship

 

Moses, A Priest After the Holy Order of God, even Melchizedek, Ordaining Brother Aaron a High Priest of the Order of Aaron--the Lesser Priesthood

 

My Line of Authority in ordination as an Apostle from Jesus of Nazareth:

 

 1 AND again, my brethren, I would cite your minds forward to the time when the Lord God gave these commandments unto his children; and I would that ye should remember that the Lord God ordained priests, after his holy order, which was after the order of his Son, to teach these things unto the people.
 2 And those priests were ordained after the order of his Son, in a manner that thereby the people might know in what manner to look forward to his Son for redemption.
 3 And this is the manner after which they were ordained--being called and prepared from the foundation of the world according to the foreknowledge of God, on account of their exceeding faith and good works; in the first place being left to choose good or evil; therefore they having chosen good, and exercising exceedingly great faith, are called with a holy calling, yea, with that holy calling which was prepared with, and according to, a preparatory redemption for such.
 4 And thus they have been called to this holy calling on account of their faith, while others would reject the Spirit of God on account of the hardness of their hearts and blindness of their minds, while, if it had not been for this they might have had as great privilege as their brethren.
 5 Or in fine, in the first place they were on the same standing with their brethren; thus this holy calling being prepared from the foundation of the world for such as would not harden their hearts, being in and through the atonement of the Only Begotten Son, who was prepared--
 6 And thus being called by this holy calling, and ordained unto the high priesthood of the holy order of God, to teach his commandments unto the children of men, that they also might enter into his rest--
 7 This high priesthood being after the order of his Son, which order was from the foundation of the world; or in other words, being without beginning of days or end of years, being prepared from eternity to all eternity, according to his foreknowledge of all things--
 8 Now they were ordained after this manner--being called with a holy calling, and ordained with a holy ordinance, and taking upon them the high priesthood of the holy order, which calling, and ordinance, and high priesthood, is without beginning or end--
 9 Thus they become high priests forever, after the order of the Son, the Only Begotten of the Father, who is without beginning of days or end of years, who is full of grace, equity, and truth. And thus it is. Amen.
 10 Now, as I said concerning the holy order, or this high priesthood, there were many who were ordained and became high priests of God; and it was on account of their exceeding faith and repentance, and their righteousness before God, they choosing to repent and work righteousness rather than to perish;
 11 Therefore they were called after this holy order, and were sanctified, and their garments were washed white through the blood of the Lamb.
 12 Now they, after being sanctified by the Holy Ghost, having their garments made white, being pure and spotless before God, could not look upon sin save it were with abhorrence; and there were many, exceedingly great many, who were made pure and entered into the rest of the Lord their God.
 13 And now, my brethren, I would that ye should humble yourselves before God, and bring forth fruit meet for repentance, that ye may also enter into that rest.
 14 Yea, humble yourselves even as the people in the days of Melchizedek, who was also a high priest after this same order which I have spoken, who also took upon him the high priesthood forever.
 15 And it was this same Melchizedek to whom Abraham paid tithes; yea, even our father Abraham paid tithes of one-tenth part of all he possessed.
 16 Now these ordinances were given after this manner, that thereby the people might look forward on the Son of God, it being a type of his order, or it being his order, and this that they might look forward to him for a remission of their sins, that they might enter into the rest of the Lord.
 17 Now this Melchizedek was a king over the land of Salem; and his people had waxed strong in iniquity and abomination; yea, they had all gone astray; they were full of all manner of wickedness;
 18 But Melchizedek having exercised mighty faith, and received the office of the high priesthood according to the holy order of God, did preach repentance unto his people. And behold, they did repent; and Melchizedek did establish peace in the land in his days; therefore he was called the prince of peace, for he was the king of Salem; and he did reign under his father.
 19 Now, there were many before him, and also there were many afterwards, but none were greater; therefore, of him they have more particularly made mention.
 20 Now I need not rehearse the matter; what I have said may suffice. Behold, the scriptures are before you; if ye will wrest them it shall be to your own destruction.

   (Alma  13:1-20)

 59 Verily, if a man be called of my Father, as was Aaron, by mine own voice, and by the voice of him that sent me, and I have endowed him with the keys of the power of this priesthood, if he do anything in my name, and according to my law and by my word, he will not commit sin, and I will justify him.

   (D&C  132:59)

 4 And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as [was] Aaron.

   (Heb  5:4)

The Holy Order of God

D&C 132:59 59 Verily, if a man be called of my Father, as was Aaron, by mine own voice, and by the voice of him that sent me, and I have endowed him with the keys of the power of this priesthood, if he do anything in my name, and according to my law and by my word, he will not commit sin, and I will justify him. Heb 5:4 4 And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as [was] Aaron. My line of authority as an Apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ: Line of Authority Artis Brent Bulla was ordained a Seventy Apostle (which office has the keys of the Kingdom of God, saith the Lord) in April, 1974 by Rex Dee Pinegar, who was ordained by Marion D. Hanks in April, 1957, who was ordained a Seventy Apostle May 5, 1944 under the hands of Antoine R. Ivins, who received it (Apostleship) on December 28, 1913 under the hands of Fredrick E. Barker who was ordained on July 13, 1884 by Samuel Glasgow, who in turn received the Apostleship on April 18, 1845 under the hands of Benjamin L. Clapp who was ordained a Seventy Apostle on October 20, 1844 by Joseph Young and Levi W. Hancock, who in turn were Ordained Seventy Apostles on February 28, 1835 by Joseph Smith, Jr., Sidney Rigdon, and Fredrick G. Williams. Joseph Smith, Jun. and Oliver Cowdrey received the Apostleship under the hands of Peter, James and John on the bank of the Susquehanna River in the Ohio in 1829. Peter, James and John were ordained Apostles by the Lord Jesus Christ between 30 and 33 A.D. (John 15:16) "The Seventies are called and set apart to be swift messengers to the nations of the earth having power to introduce the gospel wherever they may be sent, holding the keys of this kingdom...’’ Orson Pratt, Nauvoo Period Record, Book B, p. 31. Matthias, also, who was numbered with the apostles in the place of Judas...are like-wise said to have been deemed worthy of the same calling with the seventy." Eusebius Chapter XII.

·         10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.
11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. (New Testament | Galatians 1:10 - 12)
