Dear Mr. Dervaes:
Your letter of May 22, addressed to me personally, has been received. You mentioned being disappointed that I have not responded to all your letters, though I did let you know your theories are not believed by the Church.
That answer was intended to cover more than just the immediate letter. What you have written are theories which cannot be proved or documented at this point. There is no cogent argument presented; hence, what is there to answer? When God has a revelation for His Church, we believe He will reveal it through the same Church ministers who are teaching the brethren His ways. A true prophet would be recognized by the Church.
As you may know, we receive hundreds of “prophetic messages” from individuals, each with an apparently sincere belief that God has revealed some truth only to him. We do not customarily respond to all these private interpretations and theories. Please do not feel any personal “slight” that we do not respond to all your letters. When we feel it will be helpful, we will reply.
Sincerely,
[Signature on file]
David G. Hunsberger
