No written record of the 1978 revelation granting the priesthood to all worthy male members has ever been produced, nor do the prophets claim such a document exists. Instead, participants describe an overwhelming spiritual feeling after seeking guidance on the priesthood ban for black members. It seems evident that this change was prompted by mounting pressure from lawsuits, negative media attention, and the church’s declining public image—factors that likely affected conversions and member retention. While extending the priesthood to black members was a positive step for the church, it strains belief to attribute the timing to a divine revelation, coinciding so conveniently with external scrutiny. More telling is the absence of a written record of God’s words, a hallmark of previous LDS revelations. If LDS prophets truly spoke with God, they would surely present His words to their followers.
