Editing First Presidency (section)

==Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints==

A First Presidency also leads the [[Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints]], which was formed primarily out of discontent with changes in the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and seeks to be a "renewal" of that church prior to those changes. The First Presidency consists of three High Priests chosen by the voice of the Church;<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://theremnantchurch.com/index.php/doctrine-covenants/266-section-104|title=SECTION 104|first=james Vun|last=Cannon|website=theremnantchurch.com}}</ref> a president and two counselors. The president is selected by [[Revelation (Latter Day Saints)|revelation]], [[inheritance|Jewish Laws of Inheritance]], and vote of the [[general conference (Latter Day Saints)|General Conference]] of the Church. The president has the right to choose his own counselors but they must also be sustained by vote of the general conference. The first president following the schism with the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was [[Frederick Niels Larsen]], a direct descendant (maternal 2nd great-grandson) of [[Joseph Smith]]. His successor is Terry W. Patience, whose first and second counselors are Michael Hogan and David Van Fleet.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://theremnantchurch.com/meet-our-leadership/|title=Meet Our Leadership }}</ref>
