Yes, you read the subject line correctly. Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you. Neither am I. There's a notable difference/similarity between the 2. Check it out..... {I'm not really sure how looking up one thing brought me to this subject; however, while researching the correlation between Bountiful, Canada group with Winston Blackmore & reading about his life etc. then how W. Jeff's sort of moved in & took over there, while ex-communicating Blackmore. (Interesting read, I now think that Blackmore had a little bit of Alby in him also) Notice how he's always smiling in the media pictures. He has a lot to smile about.

Yes we do. 
I don't believe that TTP's history is common knowledge -- I'm going on what he told me in PM's (it wasn't confidential or anything  )

Ah, thanks JH,
I'm just a little behind the times here & didn't want to leave anyone out. He(TTP) hasn't been here in a while, I guess he's still out on the farm.
I feel bad that I didn't mention Happy Pioneer Day to Zoar, especially. Sorry Zoar, we luv ya.

I don't think TTP celebrates that holiday, Du. He was born a fundie Mormon but became more of a fundie Christian later -- tho he still believes in polygamy.

I'd like to send a belated Happy Pioneer Day to our own Zoar, Wurks, TTProphet, and anyone else out there who may celebrate this day!

Wow that is really interesting. I had no idea there was any difference or that I ever noticed. You read the line and you think it is all the same.

zoar,
Thanks for the link, it's interesting to me that some 20 or so %, in the survey taken do not know the difference between the two groups.
It should be interesting to follow what happens here.
Thanks again,

Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints vs Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Yes, you read the subject line correctly.
Your eyes aren't playing tricks on you. Neither am I. There's a notable difference/similarity between the 2. Check it out.....
{I'm not really sure how looking up one thing brought me to this subject; however, while researching the correlation between Bountiful, Canada group with Winston Blackmore & reading about his life etc. then how W. Jeff's sort of moved in & took over there, while ex-communicating Blackmore. (Interesting read, I now think that Blackmore had a little bit of Alby in him also)
Notice how he's always smiling in the media pictures. He has a lot to smile about. [Mission accomplished]
Then, when Jeff's took over the group in Canada, I came across an interesting article:
Anyway, all of that lead me to this:}
"Leroy Johnson taught: "We are not trying to set up another church or to set the Church in order."
"However, in response to a disagreement with members of the UEP, the Johnson/Jeff's group (the "First Ward") officially registered their religious organization, calling themselves "The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints" (note the lack of a hyphen in Latter-Day & the capitalization of "Day") or FLDS Church in 1991 with Jeff's as President.
On the other hand, or on the flip side of this coin:
In the Book of Mormon: "Published by
The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints
Salt Lake City, Utah, USA"
While looks can be deceiving and some similarities run a close race. Both groups follow the teachings of Joseph Smith.
And then of course, both of these groups used to be 1 united group; up until the manifesto.
Even down to a name being so similar; or maybe it's just plain coincidental.
What do you think?
