Below is from a post on another site. John is specifically mentioned in D&C 7. It gives his mission and is pretty specific. Given what it says WHERE IS HE in lds-inc today? I read the full post and agree, He and the 3 Nephites are the most important people in the world today. 1900 years plus of experience. Walked and talked and ate with Jesus. Why are they ignored today. Especially John, given the promises and mission and his role with "The Keys" of his calling to tarry until the Lord comes in his Glory.

http://www.exmormonforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3797John has The Keys as they were given to the three, Him, Peter and James. John was to tarry and minister and bring souls unto The Lord.
If he was going to "bring souls unto the Lord" he needed to be able to exercise his Priesthood, Baptize and confirm and give all the blessings needed, didn't he?
He was/is to 'minister for those who shall be heirs of salvation who dwell on earth". Does not this describe JOSEPH SMITH and all succeeding Prophets and Apostles???
Where is John the Beloved in Mormonism today?
