Ministry of the Disciples

Part of: Messianic Ministry

• The disciples are briefly taken to heaven, where they see and hear marvelous things.
• The disciples are forbidden from writing down their experiences.
• The disciples are unable to determine whether their visit to heaven was literal and physical, or whether it was a spiritual vision, or an out-of-body experience.
• The disciples minister among the people.
• The disciples preach, baptize, and confer the Holy Ghost among the people, but the physical status of the three immortal disciples is undetermined.
• Non–believers futilely attempt to imprison and exile the disciples, but the disciples are unstoppable: they destroy the prisons, and defy all traps.
• They survive being cast in burning furnaces and dens of wild beasts.
• The disciples do all they can to teach the gospel to the people, and bring the Jesus’ followers into unison.
• Nephite decline and downfall
