Apostle (Mormonism) - Definition and Overview

In Mormonism, an Apostle is a person ordained to be a traveling councilor bearing witness of Jesus Christ. In many Latter Day Saint denominations, an Apostle is also a priesthood office of high authority within the church hierarchy, as a member of the Quorum of the Twelve, although not all apostles have been part of the Quorum. In Mormon theology, modern-day apostles have the same status and authority as the Biblical apostles.
