D&C 107:82 does not refer to the quorum that the Council forms. Bro. Harry is right that the Council can remove a member. D&C 107:82 is not how that is accomplished. It refers to a much lesser "president of priesthood" office than the one held by the Council. D&C 107 was given 1835 and before. The priesthood office the Council members hold hadn't even been restored yet.
You wrote: "Bro. Harry is *right*... that the Council can remove a *member*." But you imply that Bro. Harry is *wrong *in some other area*. *To you was he in error to have even asked the question about applying this scripture to a high priest apostle - those far more exalted above the lowly 1835 apostles? Wasn't it Bro. Harry that took *D&C 107:82* to the Lord in prayer about that Scripture possibly applying to Bro. Lynn? "What do I do with the questions *about this scripture* in particular, which has to do with *trying the head of the priesthood*? ... But once he [Bro. Lynn] is *there*, that does *not* mean that he is *infallible* and *if* he makes a serious mistake, then *he can be tried* for it" Isn't Bro. Harry testifying that he got an answer that *LYNN*, the Council and even you and I are accountable for sins committed? "... not any person ... who is exempt ... Thus, *NONE* shall be exempted from the *justice* and the *laws of God* ... according to truth and righteousness." 107:*81 & 84 * Didn't Joseph Smith submit himself twice to a justice court and isn't he even more lofty than the council of the ten, being the head of the dispensation of the fulness of times? Are you teaching and believing that a high priest apostle is exempt "*from the justice and the laws of God*" and that no tribunal on earth can try them - only God?
