Ether 3:8-12 The faith of the brother of Jared


“Christ was saying to the brother of Jared, ‘Never have I showed myself unto man in this manner, without my volition, driven solely by the faith of the beholder.’ ..prophets are invited into the presence of The Lord…only with his sanction. The brother of Jared, on the other hand, seems to have thrust himself through the veil, not as an unwelcome guest but perhaps technically as an uninvited one.. (Elder Holland. ‘Christ and the New Covenant, 23)
