Guest tomk Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 My take on this is: We can write scripture for ourselves. What is a journal? Is a journal not "scripture" for our own benefit? As far as writing scripture for the edification and salvation of others, I think that is something the Lord calls His prophets to do. General Conference, held every 6 months, could certainly be considered to be the "word of God" and thus adding to the body of scripture.

Flyonthewall Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 It has been said that the Ensign contains words of the prophets, and is considered scripture, though not cannonized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VisionOfLehi Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Patriarchs also "write" scripture, although it is personalized for individual they give it to in a Patriarchal Blessing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a-train Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Any inspired person can write it, but it is not officially canonized as scripture until brought before the body of the Church and sustained as such. -a-train Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
