Where are the Three Nephites?

Has anyone ever seen the Three Nephites since Christ's death?
Is it possible they will help to restore the Constituition?
Are they going to have anything to do with the Seven Seals?
The longest living man was Methuselah. Can the Three Nephites be considered as having lived longer being that they are only partially immortalized?.
How about John the Beloved?

Family member a couple generations back claimed to meet one of them.....don't know if his Uncle Brigham ever officially backed him up on it though!

I'm sure many people have seen them, but as with so many other things:
Those who know, don't say - and those who say don't really know.

Who knows where John the Revelator is.
It is John the Beloved that is here on earth somewhere as are the Three Nephites.

From lds.org:

I have always been taught that they are the same person....even as the Savior is referred to by so many different names and adjectives.

I stand corrected. This is one good reason we have a lot of knowledgeable people on this forum, to help each other out. Thanks
This point of doctrine was not high on my list of study.

What do you mean you stand corrected? Are you saying that John is the same as the three Nephites? Because I found no reference to that in the link given.

I thought John the Beloved and John the Revelator were two separate individuals. It was pointed out that they are one in the same. I was able to confirm it by looking it up in the book "Answers To Gospel Questions" by Joseph Fielding Smith.
Having said this, John is also as The Three Nephites; they are all here on earth until Jesus comes again.

Ok, now I get it. We're talking about if John the REVELATOR and John the BELOVED are the same people. Now, are the three Nephites one Nephite or three separate Nephites? j/k

All of em
Oh you may have meant like pay tithing and have a membership number. I was under the impression they operate under a higher law. i.e. the privelege to see Jehovah face to face, calling and election made sure stuff. Special circumstances. Is this right?

I'm sure they have all had all of their ordinances performed. But marriage.. That's questionable. I have heard many interesting stories about them though I don't know if any are true. Does anyone have any here that they would like to share. I just can't remember all the details.
