What is the definition of the mormon priesthood?
In the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church), 'priesthood' is the power and authority of God. It is by this power that God created all things and by this authority that God governs all things. In mortality, priesthood power and authority can be given from God to man in order to act in His name for the salvation of His children. Most Mormon men are ordained to the priesthood, which means that they are authorized to exercise the power and authority of God when and if they are acting in accordance to God's will. A priesthood ordination enables a man to act in the name of God in performing ordinances (such as sacrament/communion, baptism, or marriage) and bestowing blessings upon others. Because God authorizes men to act in His stead through His priesthood, all people have access to the blessings of the priesthood - including healing, comfort, guidance, revelation, and salvation.
