The Church was organized, named by direct command of the Lord, "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints."

....after trying out several names....

"Church of Christ was the original name of the church founded by Joseph Smith, Jr. Organized informally in 1829 and then as a legal entity on April 6, 1830, in northwestern New York, it was the first organization implementing the principles found in Smith's newly-published Book of Mormon, and represents the formal beginning of the Latter Day Saint movement.

Later names for this organization included the Church of the Latter Day Saints (by 1834 resolution), the Church of Jesus Christ, the Church of God, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (by 1838 revelation)".

The question is, how shall we know when the things they have spoken were said as they were “moved upon by the Holy Ghost?”

I have given some thought to this question, and the answer thereto so far as I can determine, is: We can tell when the speakers are “moved upon by the Holy Ghost” only when we, ourselves, are “moved upon by the Holy Ghost.”

In a way, this completely shifts the responsibility from them to us to determine when they so speak.

Yes the listeners are responsibile to check what is being said from the pulpit for truth and accuracy...

Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true. Acts 17:11
