The President (e.g., Gordon Hinckley) is the guy I always hear referred to 
as prophet.  Are his two counsellors also called prophets?

Do I have it wrong in thinking that the apostles and prophets of your church 
are only the 12 apostles and the First Presidency?  Would you say that you 
have 12 apostles and three prophets?  Or do you consider all 15 men to be 
prophets, with 12 of them having the added distinction of apostleship?

Also, I have always seen the apostles identified as those who assist the 
First Presidency.  Do I have that right?  The Scriptures put apostles first, 
then prophets, so I see an antichrist element in putting up one man called 
the Prophet over the apostles in your organization.  Please clarify the 
structure for me, Dave.  I've been learning about Mormonism from you for a 
very long time.  :-)

Peace be with you.
David Miller.
