Christ’s twelve disciples were interviewed individually by
Jesus. Nine of them wanted to come
directly to Jesus when there ministry on earth was completed. Jesus touched these nine with his finger and
told them they would live to be seventy two and then they would come unto him. The other three were caught up into heaven
and were translated. They saw things
they were not allowed to mention or write.
They were to remain on the earth ministering to God’s children until
Christ would come again. As translated
beings they could not be injured or killed, neither could they be detained in
prison. If they desired to travel, they
could pray and God would deliver them there instantly. They have become known to Mormon history as
the “Three Nephites.” Their main role is
missionary work.
