Today's Favorite Verse: 2 Nephi 19:16
"For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed."

The "leaders of this people" are not the prophets of God. True prophets of God cannot lead us astray.

"The Lord will never permit me or any other man who stands as President of this Church to lead you astray. It is not in the programme. It is not in the mind of God. If I were to attempt that, the Lord would remove me out of my place, and so He will any other man who attempts to lead the children of men astray from the oracles of God and from their duty." (Sixty-first Semiannual General Conference of the Church, Monday, October 6, 1890, Salt Lake City, Utah. Reported in Deseret Evening News, October 11, 1890, p. 2.)
(Doctrine and Covenants Official Declaration 1)

Those that set themselves up as a light and are false prophets and antichrists will pay the price for deceiving and leading others astray.

"Behold, verily I say unto you, there are hypocrites among you, who have deceived some, which has given the adversary power; but behold such shall be reclaimed;
But the hypocrites shall be detected and shall be cut off, either in life or in death, even as I will; and wo unto them who are cut off from my church, for the same are overcome of the world."
(Doctrine and Covenants 50:7-8
