Pentecostal Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints

The Pentecostal Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, also known as the PLDS Church, is a sect of Mormonism organized in 1994-1995 by a study group called the "LDS Scripture Readers", led by Michael Bethel, composed initially of independent Mormons and members of various Mormon sects. The church is headquartered in Kenner, Louisiana.

The church accepts the "Bible" and the "Book of Mormon" as scripture, but rejects many other elements of Mormonism, including the Doctrine and Covenants, the Mormon Godhead, the First Presidency, and the Aaronic and Melchizedek Priesthoods. The church believes in the imminent Second Coming of Jesus, and that the church will play a central role in uniting all other Latter Day Saints into a common body.

There are approximately thirty adherents [ [http://www.adherents.com/Na/Na_510.html Adherents.com] ] .
