Church of Jesus Christ (Bullaite)
- Church of Jesus Christ (Bullaite)
The Church of Jesus Christ is a schismatic sect in the Latter Day Saint movement that was organized by Art Bulla in 1983.
Bulla converted to Mormonism and joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints around 1970. In the early 1980s, he began teaching other Latter-day Saints that he was the "One Mighty and Strong" that Joseph Smith, Jr. prophesied would come to set the church in order. [See Doctrine and Covenants [http://scriptures.lds.org/en/dc/85/7#7 85:7] .] In 1983, Bulla organized the Church of Jesus Christ in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Bulla was interviewed in the anti-Mormon movie "The God Makers II" with the title "Mormon Prophet" under his name.
Bulla was still actively advancing his claims in 2007. [ [http://mormonmisc.podbean.com/2007/11/12/mormon-fundamentalism/ minutes of a talkshow program where Bulla called in with his claim] ]
