It would be interesting if the next prophet came forward and told us that the church and its members were under condemnation--temples empty, spirituality neglected, too wordly and material, not enough service, etc.
We could use a good stirring up. |

Does that make you a mullah?

Well, if we have members claiming the age of innovation and revelation is over, you might have your answer right there.

I could see a President Packer taking that approach.

If Christ is appearing, we are so cowardly we do not declare it. Imagine if Peter and Paul had been ashamed to declare their visions.

As for miracles not happening because of wickedness or a lack of faith, that is fairly well supported, but again, there are exceptions. The "you can't share your revelatory experiences" mumbo jumbo isn't well supported in scripture either. I suspect we've swerved a little off the path in this area.
