Even before the official 1905 statement was issued from the Church Presidency, several men were claiming the title of One Mighty and Strong:

There have arisen from time to time men of doubtful intelligence who have laid claim to be the one Mighty and Strong. * * * (CHMR 1:35 0)

It has been used by vain and foolish men to bolster up their vagaries of speculation, and in some cases their pretensions to great power and high positions they were to attain in the Church. (Des. News, Nov. 13, 1905)

One would think in such a matter as this that sufficient native modesty would assert itself to restrain a man from announcing himself as the one on whom such high honors are to be conferred, and who is to exercise such great powers in establishing the Saints in their inheritances. (Mess. of the F.P. 4:10 9)

And today men are still making this claim. So how can we distinguish the many from the one? In 1912 Joseph F. Smith, troubled by men who claimed to be the Mighty and Strong, gave the following warning in General Conference:

 

I know that the Lord will not raise up “Tom, Dick, or Harry”, here, there and everywhere, claiming to be Christ, or “One Mighty and Strong,” claiming to be [84] inspired and called to do some wonderful things. * * * Put that in your little notebooks now, and remember it. . . . (April Conf. Rept., 1912, p. 10)
