Summary

*Correction, the temple was in Kirtland*

Jeffrey Lundgren started out as a faithful member of the LDS. He even volunteered at their temple in Kirtland where he preached to visitors. That is, until his messages started to skew from LDS beliefs, and he was fired. Jeff then formed his own group, which would focus on priming the temple for the arrival of the Lord. But to do that, he'd have to take the temple over.
