Beliefs & Doctrine

Three Nephites

  1. Three Book of Mormon disciples whom Christ granted the wish never to taste death, so they could keep ministering on earth until His return.

Like the apostle John, they were "translated" — changed so as not to die. They remain a staple of Latter-day Saint folklore.
