Or the apostle John.
Mormons claim all four of them have been alive for 2,000 years.
What authority was "lost" in need of "restoration" if Christ had 4 authoritative reps on earth?.
What? One 14 yo was better than 4 almost 1,900 years old?
So these 4 had over 7,500 years of living experience between them, and two unnamed "personages" came down & decided to go for pimples & puberty, ignoring the stature and tenure of these four?
How do you think John and these three Nephites felt being grouped together as part of a "universal apostasy?" (What part of the word "universal" excludes them?)
Or, could it be, you believe both the Book of Mormon & D&C passages on these four were false?
WHAT? LDS believe the apostle John is still alive? Where has he been hanging out?
What? One 14 yo was better than 4 almost 1,900 years old?

Sounds like something out of “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade”.
