A breakaway group from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints based in Independence, Missouri, with roughly 250,000 members. Following Joseph Smith's death in 1844, a period of disorganization occurred regarding the church presidency (pride was clearly on display) as various groups followed different leaders, the largest being the followers of Brigham Young. In 1860, a conference in Amboy, Illinois, held by people who lacked any authority, reorganized the church with Joseph Smith III as president. This group was known as the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints until 2001.

Satan. The devil is the enemy of righteousness and of all those who seek to do the will of God. He is literally a son of God in spirit, and at one time was an angel with authority in the presence of God (Isa. 14:12). Behold, there are only two churches: one is the church of the Lamb of God, and the other is the church of the devil: so he who does not belong to the church of the Lamb of God belongs to that Iglesia Grande y Abominable which is the mother of abominations, and is the whore of all the earth.
