| - In the Mormon fundamentalist movement, the 1886 Revelation is the text of a revelation said to have been received by John Taylor, third President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), that is claimed to restate the permanence of the principle of plural marriage. Along with Joseph Smith, Jr.'s 1843 revelation on plural marriage, the 1886 revelation is one of the primary documents used by Mormon fundamentalists to justify their continued practice of polygamy. The LDS Church, which issued manifestos in 1890 and 1904 to terminate the practice of plural marriage, does not accept the 1886 revelation as authentic. Others have questioned whether the revelation, if authentic, even refers to plural marriage or its continuance.

Diese Offenbarung sollte zusammen mit der Offenbarung von Joseph Smith die Weiterführung der Polygamie rechtfertigen. Die Kirche Jesu Christi der Heiligen der Letzten Tage sieht das Dokument nicht als authentisch an und verweist auf ihre Offenbarungen von 1890 und 1904. Auch andere haben die Interpretation der Offenbarung in Frage gestellt. Der mormonische Historiker verweist darauf.

| - In the Mormon fundamentalist movement, the 1886 Revelation is the text of a revelation said to have been received by John Taylor, third President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), that is claimed to restate the permanence of the principle of plural marriage. Along with Joseph Smith, Jr.'s 1843 revelation on plural marriage, the 1886 revelation is one of the primary documents used by Mormon fundamentalists to justify their continued practice of polygamy. The LDS Church, which issued manifestos in 1890 and 1904 to terminate the practice of plural marriage, does not accept the 1886 revelation as authentic. Others have questioned whether the revelation, if authentic, even refers to plural marriage or its continuance. In 1911, John W. Taylor, Taylor's son and an apostle claimed that he had discovered the revelation among his father's papers after his death in 1887. Unfortunately, his was a copy written in his own hand. Photographs of the original document exist, but the document itself is not extant. Examinations of the photographs have suggested that the document is in John Taylor's handwriting. In 1912, Lorin C. Woolley, a Mormon fundamentalist leader, published a claim that five copies of the revelation had been made and entrusted to LDS Church apostle George Q. Cannon (and four other men who were not LDS Church officials) with the intent of preserving it for posterity. The text of the revelation is as follows: 1886 RevelationGiven to President John Taylor September 27, 1886My son John, you have asked me concerning the New and Everlasting Covenant how far it is binding upon my people.Thus saith the Lord: All commandments that I give must be obeyed by those calling themselves by my name unless they are revoked by me or by my authority, and how can I revoke an everlasting covenant, for I the Lord am everlasting and my everlasting covenants cannot be abrogated nor done away with, but they stand forever.Have I not given my word in great plainness on this subject? Yet have not great numbers of my people been negligent in the observance of my law and the keeping of my commandments, and yet have I borne with them these many years; and this because of their weakness—because of the perilous times, and furthermore, it is more pleasing to me that men should use their free agency in regard to these matters. Nevertheless, I the Lord do not change and my word and my covenants and my law do not, and as I have heretofore said by my servant Joseph: All those who would enter into my glory must and shall obey my law. And have I not commanded men that if they were Abraham’s seed and would enter into my glory, they must do the works of Abraham. I have not revoked this law, nor will I, for it is everlasting, and those who will enter into my glory must obey the conditions thereof; even so, Amen.

Auch andere haben die Interpretation der Offenbarung in Frage gestellt. Im Jahr 1911 behauptete , Sohn von John Taylor und ein Apostel der Kirche, dass er die Offenbarung unter den Papieren seines Vaters gefunden habe. Dies geschah nach dem Tod von John Taylor im Jahr 1887. Unglücklicherweise war das Dokument in der Handschrift seines Sohnes geschrieben. Fotografien des originalen Dokuments existieren, aber das Dokument gibt es nicht mehr. Untersuchungen haben ergeben, dass das Dokument in der Handschrift von John Taylor geschrieben ist. Im Jahr 1912 veröffentliche der fundamentalistische Mormone die Behauptung, dass fünf Abschriften des Dokuments dem Apostel George Q. Cannon (und vier anderen Männern, die keine Offiziellen der HLT-Kirche waren) überbracht wurden, um es für die Nachwelt zu erhalten. verwies auf diese Offenbarung, als Grund seiner Weiterführung der Polygamie.Diese Offenbarung wird heutzutage noch benutzt um die Polygamie zu rechtfertigen. Der mormonische Historiker verweist darauf.
