- “Our text says, ‘And hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father.’ The Apostles have discovered that there were Gods above, for John says God was the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

This then opens up a new can of worms, as to who is the “Holy One”, etc—In a word, they all are. The Gods are one. They may all use the same names
Brigham was right when he said:
- “We begin with the father of our Lord Jesus Christ, and of our spirits—who is he? Do you know anything about him? Can you find out who he is? Suppose we go to the scriptures and enquire who he is. At one time he says ‘I am that I am,’ at another time when the question was proposed by somebody, he replied, ‘I am the Lord your God’; at another time he is spoken of as a Man of War, a General and so on. You may trace the scriptures through, and you will find that he is known to one people by one title today, and tomorrow by another, and the next day by another, and there he leaves it.” (Manuscript Addresses of Brigham Young, 25 April 1855)
