Edited sentence: "Much of his work has been destroyed", wrote Fetting, "but he will be saved as by fire, and will be numbered with the prophets of old".Accordingly, Fettingites respect Joseph Smith as a prophet, but do not necessarily accept all of his teaching.Also, like their Temple Lot cousins, the Fettingites reject the Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price, as well as Joseph Smith's Inspired Version of the Bible, preferring to use only the King James Bible and the Book of Mormon as doctrinal standards.Baptism for the Dead, eternal marriage, polygamy and the eternal progression doctrine are all rejected.Fettingites still believe that a temple will be reared on the Temple Lot, but it will not be like any of the LDS or Community of Christ temples currently in use.In common with the Temple Lot church, Fettingites reject the office of President of the Church, being led instead by their Quorum of Twelve Apostles, with all members of that body considered equal.In verse 1 of his first "message", Fetting's heavenly envoy commanded that the "Articles of Faith and Practice" of the Temple Lot organization (of which Fetting was then still an apostle) were to remain unchanged, "because the Lord inspired the men that wrote them".In verse 6 of his twelfth "message", Otto Fetting quoted John the Baptist as allegedly saying that Joseph Smith had indeed been a true prophet, but that he "sinned before God" due to "pride, and the love and praise of men".Other than their acceptance of Fetting's thiry "messages", the beliefs and practices of the Fettingite organizations are virtually identical to those of their parent church, the Church of Christ (Temple Lot).The Church of Christ (Restored), also called the "De Wolf" group, is found mostly in Louisana and Mississippi and observes Sunday as its day of worship, as does the Elijah Message church.The Fettingite faction currently headquartered in Independence, sometimes referred to as the "Bronsonite" group, is Sabbatarian
