When we are speaking of Jesus Christ we are speaking of the God of the Old Testament. We are speaking of the one who organized the worlds and everything in them. Christ ruled with power and authority long before he was ever born. I find it difficult to believe that he had to wait until his birth to be anointed or to receive the Holy Priesthood. It was the premortal Christ who parted the Red Sea, miraculously provided manna in the Israelite's wilderness journey, revealed himself to the brother of Jared and touched the stones to provide light for the Jaredite's crossing BEFORE he ever came to earth. If he did not have the Holy Priesthood, by what power and authority did he do all these things and much, much more?
