Yes, we believe John the Beloved, and the three Nephites did not taste of death and were permitted by Jesus to “tarry until I come” (John 21:22)

I don’t know where they are, but Jesus does and they are doing His will.

John 21:22-23 Jesus answered, "If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? You must follow me." Because of this, the rumor spread among the brothers that this disciple would not die. But Jesus did not say that he would not die; he only said, "If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you?"

Listen to rumors much? Jesus was basically telling Peter to mind his own business.

Actually, Norm, John 21:22 is in the SUBJUNCTIVE (If). Christ never says that John WILL tarry, just that IF he were it didn’t matter, IOW telling peter to MYOB.

Matt 21:22

22Jesus answered, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? You must follow me.” 23Because of this, the rumor spread among the brothers that this disciple would not die. But Jesus did not say that he would not die; he only said, “If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you?”

So, if they are still alive, and they had the priesthood, then the Priesthood never left the earth and there was NO APOSTASY!

“I don’t know where they are, but Jesus does and they are doing His will.”

Normandy, are you referring to the mormonic jesus - the created spirit being who later became a god in the mormonic pantheon of henotheistic gods?

or are you referring to the Biblical Jesus Christ, who
never was created or made, but is eternally God, the second
Person of the Triune Christian God?

Which one?
