Pentecostal Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
The
Pentacostal 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 not consistent with those books, 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 Christ, and that the church will play a central role in uniting all other Latter Day Saints into a common body.
