==Pergunta: São profetas simplesmente "homens de sua própria época" sem qualquer habilidade especial para guiar a Igreja?==
===Prophets are a product of their own time and culture===
Prophets have ''always'' reflected the times in which they lived&mdash;how could they not?

Prophets continue to receive revelation this days, so we can be successful in this life. They are like a bishop, but for the entire world. They are, indeed, "men of their time." How could the prophets be anything ''but'' "men of their time," since they are a product of their own time and culture? They are men that are capable of making mistakes, but Latter-Day Saints believe that if they follow the modern day prophet, they will be blessed. The teachings of the prophets are based on the scriptures, and when God decides to reveal new doctrine, he will do it by his prophets. When prophets receive revelation, it does not always necessarily mean that we are going to hear the prophets teach us new doctrine.
