D&C 21

Being that the Lord has -

"...called a seer, a translator, a prophet, an apostle of Jesus Christ..."  (Doctrine and Covenants | Section 21:1)

...to lead His Church, the saints are commanded to -

"...give heed unto all his words and commandments which he shall give unto you as he receiveth them, walking in all holiness before me;
5 For his word ye shall receive, as if from mine own mouth, in all patience and faith."  (Doctrine and Covenants | Section 21:4 - 5)

I find the commandment "in all patience and faith" to be interesting.  It suggests to me that the Lord will reveal teachings, doctrines, and His will in His own manner and in His own timing...not ours.
