What do those crazy Mormons believe in, anyway? (part 5)

I am not the expert on this next statement. But I can explain it :).

We believe that a man must be called of God by prophesy and by the laying on of hands, by those who are in authority, to preach the gospel and administer to the ordinances thereof.

This means that if a man is going to preach the gospel, and/or have the priesthood, he needs to 1) be called of God: be worthy. 2)be ordained with the power by the laying on of hands. 3) the people ordaining him must have the authority to do so.

Here are some videos that talk about the priesthood, and the responsibility and power that comes with that:

"The Restoration of the Priesthood"

"The Power of God"

"The Gift of the Priesthood"

"Sanctify Yourselves" This is a true story about a young man who had the priesthood, and how he effected another, young boy's life. This talks about how, once you have the priesthood, you need to live worthy of it.
