D&C 132:59 Verily, if a man be called of my Father, as was Aaron, by mine own voice, and by the voice of him that sent me, and I have endowed him with the keys of the power of this priesthood, if he do anything in my name, and according to my law and by my word, he will not commit sin, and I will justify him.
I feel like this might be the 2nd or 3rd time we've seen a verse like this from the D&C, but I don't remember this idea being taught in other scriptures. Although, it probably is, just in other words. Priesthood keys seem to be an important element. That there are shows of trust listed in this verse. By His voice, Keys of Priesthood, doing things in the name of Christ, according to His law and by His word, The Lord will stand by him.
Moses 1:32 And by the word of my power, have I created them, which is mine Only Begotten Son, who is full of grace and truth.
"The word of my power" must be another name for Jesus Christ
Moses 6:52 And he also said unto him: If thou wilt turn unto me, and hearken unto my voice, and believe, and repent of all thy transgressions, and be baptized, even in water, in the name of mine Only Begotten Son, who is full of grace and truth, which is Jesus Christ, the only name which shall be given under heaven, whereby salvation shall come unto the children of men, ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, asking all things in his name, and whatesoever ye shall ask, it shall be given you.
There is only one name under heaven that is given to allow us to accomplish salvation -- Jesus Christ.
