Acts 12 Until the day

Acts 1:2. Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments; unto the apostles whom he had chosen:

LDS believe that the Holy Ghost(‘s):

• is Christ’s minister
• speaks and acts in the place and stead of the Son
• mission is to testify of Jesus
• reveals the mind and will of the Lord
• to say what Christ would say if personally present
• So complete, whole, and total is this commission and power that the Holy Ghost speaks in the first person as though he were Christ: Moses 5:10: And in that day Adam blessed God and was filled, and began to prophesy concerning all the families of the earth, saying: Blessed be the name of God, for because of my transgression my eyes are opened, and in this life I shall have joy, and again in the flesh I shall see God.
• In most instances when God’s prophets and apostles say: “Thus saith Christ the Lord,” they are announcing Christ’s words as revealed to them by the power of the Holy Ghost.
• The Holy Ghost gives commandments today like he did in biblical times.
