D&C 1:4
And the voice of warning shall be unto all people, by the mouths of my disciples, whom I have chosen in these last days.

D&C 1:9
Yea, verily, to seal them up unto the day when the wrath of God shall be poured out upon the wicked without measure--

D&C 1:10
Unto the day when the Lord shall come to recompense unto every man according to his work, and measure to every man according to the measure which he hass=hlblue>as measured to his fellow man.

D&C 1:15
For they have strayed from mine ordinances, and have broken mine everlasting covenant;

D&C 1:18
And also gave commandments to others, that they should proclaim these things unto the world; and all this that it might be fulfilled, which wass=hlblue>as written by the prophets--

D&C 1:21
That faith also might increase in the earth;

D&C 1:22
That mine everlasting covenant might be established;

D&C 1:25
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they erred it might be made known;

D&C 1:26
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they sought wisdom they might be instructed;

D&C 1:27
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they sinned they might be chastened, that they might repent;

D&C 1:28
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they were humble they might be made strong, and blessed from on high, and receive knowledge from time to time.

D&C 1:30
And also those to whom these commandments were given, might have power to lay the foundation of this church, and to bring it forth out of obscurity and out of darkness, the only true and living church upon the face of the whole earth, with which I, the Lord, am well pleased, speaking unto the church collectively and not individually--

D&C 1:31
For I the Lord cannot look upon sin with the least degree of allowance;

D&C 1:33
And he that repents not, from him shall be taken even the light which he hass=hlblue>as received; for my Spirit shall not always strive with man, saith the Lord of Hosts.

D&C 1:38
What I the Lord have spoken, I have spoken, and I excuse not myself; and though the heavens and the earth pass away, my word shall not pass away, but shall all be fulfilled, whether by mine own voice or by the voice of my servants, it is the same.

D&C 2:3
If it were not so, the whole earth would be utterly wasted at his coming.

D&C 3:4
For although a man may have many revelations, and have power to do many mighty works, yet if he boasts in his own strength, and sets at naught the counsels of God, and follows after the dictates of his own will and carnal desires, he must fall and incur the vengeance of a just God upon him.

D&C 3:6
And behold, how oft you have transgressed the commandments and the laws of God, and have gone on in the persuasions of men.

D&C 3:9
Behold, thou art Joseph, and thou wast chosen to do the work of the Lord, but because of transgression, if thou art not aware thou wilt fall.

D&C 3:10
But remember, God is merciful; therefore, repent of that which thou hast done which is contrary to the commandment which I gave you, and thou art still chosen, and art again called to the work;

D&C 3:11
Except thou do this, thou shalt be delivered up and become ass=hlgree>as other men, and have no more gift.

D&C 3:12
And when thou deliveredst up that which God had given thee sight and power to translate, thou deliveredst up that which wass=hlblue>as sacred into the hands of a wicked man,

D&C 3:13
Who hass=hlblue>as set at naught the counsels of God, and hass=hlblue>as broken the most sacred promises which were made before God, and hass=hlblue>as depended upon his own judgment and boasted in his own wisdom.

D&C 3:14
And this is the reason that thou hast lost thy privileges for a season--

D&C 3:15
For thou hast suffered the counsel of thy director to be trampled upon from the beginning.

D&C 3:16
Nevertheless, my work shall go forth, for inasmuch ass=hlgree>as the knowledge of a Savior hass=hlblue>as come unto the world, through the testimony of the Jews, even so shall the knowledge of a Savior come unto my people--

D&C 3:18
And this testimony shall come to the knowledge of the Lamanites, and the Lemuelites, and the Ishmaelites, who dwindled in unbelief because of the iniquity of their fathers, whom the Lord hass=hlblue>as suffered to destroy their brethren the Nephites, because of their iniquities and their abominations.

D&C 4:2
Therefore, O ye that embark in the service of God, see that ye serve him with all your heart, might, mind and strength, that ye may stand blameless before God at the last day.

D&C 4:7
ass=hlblue>Ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. Amen.

D&C 5:1
Behold, I say unto you, that ass=hlgree>as my servant Martin Harris hass=hlblue>as desired a witness at my hand, that you, my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., have got the plates of which you have testified and borne record that you have received of me;

D&C 5:2
And now, behold, this shall you say unto him-- he who spake unto you, said unto you: I, the Lord, am God, and have given these things unto you, my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., and have commanded you that you should stand ass=hlgree>as a witness of these things;

D&C 5:13
I will give them power that they may behold and view these things ass=hlgree>as they are;

D&C 5:14
And to none else will I grant this power, to receive this same testimony among this generation, in this the beginning of the rising up and the coming forth of my church out of the wilderness-- clear ass=hlgree>as the moon, and fair ass=hlgree>as the sun, and terrible ass=hlgree>as an army with banners.

D&C 5:20
Behold, I tell you these things, even ass=hlgree>as I also told the people of the destruction of Jerusalem; and my word shall be verified at this time ass=hlgree>as it hath hitherto been verified.

D&C 5:21
And now I command you, my servant Joseph, to repent and walk more uprightly before me, and to yield to the persuasions of men no more;

D&C 5:27
But if he deny this he will break the covenant which he hass=hlblue>as before covenanted with me, and behold, he is condemned.

D&C 5:28
And now, except he humble himself and acknowledge unto me the things that he hass=hlblue>as done which are wrong, and covenant with me that he will keep my commandments, and exercise faith in me, behold, I say unto him, he shall have no such views, for I will grant unto him no views of the things of which I have spoken.

D&C 5:29
And if this be the case, I command you, my servant Joseph, that you shall say unto him, that he shall do no more, nor trouble me any more concerning this matter.

D&C 5:30
And if this be the case, behold, I say unto thee Joseph, when thou hast translated a few more pages thou shalt stop for a season, even until I command thee again; then thou mayest translate again.

D&C 5:35
And if thou art faithful in keeping my commandments, thou shalt be lifted up at the last day. Amen.

D&C 6:2
Behold, I am God; give heed unto my word, which is quick and powerful, sharper than a two-edged sword, to the dividing ass=hlblue>asunder of both joints and marrow; therefore give heed unto my words.

D&C 6:3
Behold, the field is white already to harvest; therefore, whoso desireth to reap, let him thrust in his sickle with his might, and reap while the day lasts, that he may treasure up for his soul everlasting salvation in the kingdom of God.

D&C 6:5
Therefore, if you will ass=hlblue>ask of me you shall receive; if you will knock it shall be opened unto you.

D&C 6:6
Now, ass=hlgree>as you have ass=hlblue>asked, behold, I say unto you, keep my commandments, and seek to bring forth and establish the cause of Zion;

D&C 6:8
Verily, verily, I say unto you, even ass=hlgree>as you desire of me so it shall be unto you; and if you desire, you shall be the means of doing much good in this generation.

D&C 6:9
Say nothing but repentance unto this generation; keep my commandments, and ass=hlblue>assist to bring forth my work, according to my commandments, and you shall be blessed.

D&C 6:10
Behold thou hast a gift, and blessed art thou because of thy gift. Remember it is sacred and cometh from above--

D&C 6:14
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, blessed art thou for what thou hast done; for thou hast inquired of me, and behold, ass=hlgree>as often ass=hlgree>as thou hast inquired thou hast received instruction of my Spirit. If it had not been so, thou wouldst not have come to the place where thou art at this time.

D&C 6:15
Behold, thou knowest that thou hast inquired of me and I did enlighten thy mind; and now I tell thee these things that thou mayest know that thou hast been enlightened by the Spirit of truth;

D&C 6:17
I tell thee these things ass=hlgree>as a witness unto thee-- that the words or the work which thou hast been writing are true.

D&C 6:20
Behold, thou art Oliver, and I have spoken unto thee because of thy desires; therefore treasure up these words in thy heart. Be faithful and diligent in keeping the commandments of God, and I will encircle thee in the arms of my love.

D&C 6:22
Verily, verily, I say unto you, if you desire a further witness, cast your mind upon the night that you cried unto me in your heart, that you might know concerning the truth of these things.

D&C 6:25
And, behold, I grant unto you a gift, if you desire of me, to translate, even ass=hlgree>as my servant Joseph.

D&C 6:27
And now I command you, that if you have good desires-- a desire to lay up treasures for yourself in heaven-- then shall you ass=hlblue>assist in bringing to light, with your gift, those parts of my scriptures which have been hidden because of iniquity.

D&C 6:30
And even if they do unto you even ass=hlgree>as they have done unto me, blessed are ye, for you shall dwell with me in glory.

D&C 6:32
Verily, verily, I say unto you, ass=hlgree>as I said unto my disciples, where two or three are gathered together in my name, ass=hlgree>as touching one thing, behold, there will I be in the midst of them-- even so am I in the midst of you.

D&C 7:1
And the Lord said unto me: John, my beloved, what desirest thou? For if you shall ass=hlblue>ask what you will, it shall be granted unto you.

D&C 7:5
I say unto thee, Peter, this wass=hlblue>as a good desire; but my beloved hass=hlblue>as desired that he might do more, or a greater work yet among men than what he hass=hlblue>as before done.

D&C 7:6
Yea, he hass=hlblue>as undertaken a greater work; therefore I will make him ass=hlgree>as flaming fire and a ministering angel; he shall minister for those who shall be heirs of salvation who dwell on the earth.

D&C 8:1
Oliver Cowdery, verily, verily, I say unto you, that ass=hlblue>assuredly ass=hlgree>as the Lord liveth, who is your God and your Redeemer, even so surely shall you receive a knowledge of whatsoever things you shall ass=hlblue>ask in faith, with an honest heart, believing that you shall receive a knowledge concerning the engravings of old records, which are ancient, which contain those parts of my scripture of which hass=hlblue>as been spoken by the manifestation of my Spirit.

D&C 8:6
Now this is not all thy gift; for you have another gift, which is the gift of Aaron; behold, it hass=hlblue>as told you many things;

D&C 8:9
And, therefore, whatsoever you shall ass=hlblue>ask me to tell you by that means, that will I grant unto you, and you shall have knowledge concerning it.

D&C 8:10
Remember that without faith you can do nothing; therefore ass=hlblue>ask in faith. Trifle not with these things; do not ass=hlblue>ask for that which you ought not.

D&C 8:11
ass=hlblue>Ask that you may know the mysteries of God, and that you may translate and receive knowledge from all those ancient records which have been hid up, that are sacred; and according to your faith shall it be done unto you.

D&C 9:2
And then, behold, other records have I, that I will give unto you power that you may ass=hlblue>assist to translate.

D&C 9:5
And, behold, it is because that you did not continue ass=hlgree>as you commenced, when you began to translate, that I have taken away this privilege from you.

D&C 9:7
Behold, you have not understood; you have supposed that I would give it unto you, when you took no thought save it wass=hlblue>as to ass=hlblue>ask me.

D&C 9:8
But, behold, I say unto you, that you must study it out in your mind; then you must ass=hlblue>ask me if it be right, and if it is right I will cause that your bosom shall burn within you; therefore, you shall feel that it is right.

D&C 9:11
Behold, it wass=hlblue>as expedient when you commenced; but you feared, and the time is past, and it is not expedient now;

D&C 9:14
Stand fast in the work wherewith I have called you, and a hair of your head shall not be lost, and you shall be lifted up at the last day. Amen.

D&C 10:3
Nevertheless, it is now restored unto you again; therefore see that you are faithful and continue on unto the finishing of the remainder of the work of translation ass=hlgree>as you have begun.

D&C 10:4
Do not run faster or labor more than you have strength and means provided to enable you to translate; but be diligent unto the end.

D&C 10:6
Behold, they have sought to destroy you; yea, even the man in whom you have trusted hass=hlblue>as sought to destroy you.

D&C 10:7
And for this cause I said that he is a wicked man, for he hass=hlblue>as sought to take away the things wherewith you have been entrusted; and he hass=hlblue>as also sought to destroy your gift.

D&C 10:9
Therefore, you have delivered them up, yea, that which wass=hlblue>as sacred, unto wickedness.

D&C 10:12
And, on this wise, the devil hass=hlblue>as sought to lay a cunning plan, that he may destroy this work;

D&C 10:15
For behold, he hass=hlblue>as put it into their hearts to get thee to tempt the Lord thy God, in ass=hlblue>asking to translate it over again.

D&C 10:16
And then, behold, they say and think in their hearts-- We will see if God hass=hlblue>as given him power to translate; if so, he will also give him power again;

D&C 10:18
Therefore they will not agree, and we will say that he hass=hlblue>as lied in his words, and that he hass=hlblue>as no gift, and that he hass=hlblue>as no power;

D&C 10:19
Therefore we will destroy him, and also the work; and we will do this that we may not be ass=hlblue>ashamed in the end, and that we may get glory of the world.

D&C 10:20
Verily, verily, I say unto you, that Satan hass=hlblue>as great hold upon their hearts; he stirreth them up to iniquity against that which is good;

D&C 10:21
And their hearts are corrupt, and full of wickedness and abominations; and they love darkness rather than light, because their deeds are evil; therefore they will not ass=hlblue>ask of me.

D&C 10:23
And thus he hass=hlblue>as laid a cunning plan, thinking to destroy the work of God; but I will require this at their hands, and it shall turn to their shame and condemnation in the day of judgment.

D&C 10:37
But ass=hlgree>as you cannot always judge the righteous, or ass=hlgree>as you cannot always tell the wicked from the righteous, therefore I say unto you, hold your peace until I shall see fit to make all things known unto the world concerning the matter.

D&C 10:39
Yea, and you remember it wass=hlblue>as said in those writings that a more particular account wass=hlblue>as given of these things upon the plates of Nephi.

D&C 10:42
And behold, you shall publish it ass=hlgree>as the record of Nephi; and thus I will confound those who have altered my words.

D&C 10:48
Yea, and this wass=hlblue>as their faith-- that my gospel, which I gave unto them that they might preach in their days, might come unto their brethren the Lamanites, and also all that had become Lamanites because of their dissensions.

D&C 10:49
Now, this is not all-- their faith in their prayers wass=hlblue>as that this gospel should be made known also, if it were possible that other nations should possess this land;

D&C 10:62
Yea, and I will also bring to light my gospel which wass=hlblue>as ministered unto them, and, behold, they shall not deny that which you have received, but they shall build it up, and shall bring to light the true points of my doctrine, yea, and the only doctrine which is in me.

D&C 10:65
For, behold, I will gather them ass=hlgree>as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, if they will not harden their hearts;

D&C 11:2
Behold, I am God; give heed to my word, which is quick and powerful, sharper than a two-edged sword, to the dividing ass=hlblue>asunder of both joints and marrow; therefore give heed unto my word.

D&C 11:3
Behold, the field is white already to harvest; therefore, whoso desireth to reap let him thrust in his sickle with his might, and reap while the day lasts, that he may treasure up for his soul everlasting salvation in the kingdom of God.

D&C 11:5
Therefore, if you will ass=hlblue>ask of me you shall receive; if you will knock it shall be opened unto you.

D&C 11:6
Now, ass=hlgree>as you have ass=hlblue>asked, behold, I say unto you, keep my commandments, and seek to bring forth and establish the cause of Zion.

D&C 11:8
Verily, verily, I say unto you, even ass=hlgree>as you desire of me so it shall be done unto you; and, if you desire, you shall be the means of doing much good in this generation.

D&C 11:9
Say nothing but repentance unto this generation. Keep my commandments, and ass=hlblue>assist to bring forth my work, according to my commandments, and you shall be blessed.

D&C 11:10
Behold, thou hast a gift, or thou shalt have a gift if thou wilt desire of me in faith, with an honest heart, believing in the power of Jesus Christ, or in my power which speaketh unto thee;

D&C 11:19
Yea, cleave unto me with all your heart, that you may ass=hlblue>assist in bringing to light those things of which hass=hlblue>as been spoken-- yea, the translation of my work; be patient until you shall accomplish it.

D&C 11:26
Therefore, treasure up in your heart until the time which is in my wisdom that you shall go forth.

D&C 11:30
But verily, verily, I say unto you, that ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as receive me, to them will I give power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on my name. Amen.

D&C 12:2
Behold, I am God; give heed to my word, which is quick and powerful, sharper than a two-edged sword, to the dividing ass=hlblue>asunder of both joints and marrow; therefore, give heed unto my word.

D&C 12:3
Behold, the field is white already to harvest; therefore, whoso desireth to reap let him thrust in his sickle with his might, and reap while the day lasts, that he may treasure up for his soul everlasting salvation in the kingdom of God.

D&C 12:5
Therefore, if you will ass=hlblue>ask of me you shall receive; if you will knock it shall be opened unto you.

D&C 12:6
Now, ass=hlgree>as you have ass=hlblue>asked, behold, I say unto you, keep my commandments, and seek to bring forth and establish the cause of Zion.

D&C 12:8
And no one can ass=hlblue>assist in this work except he shall be humble and full of love, having faith, hope, and charity, being temperate in all things, whatsoever shall be entrusted to his care.

D&C 14:2
Behold, I am God; give heed to my word, which is quick and powerful, sharper than a two-edged sword, to the dividing ass=hlblue>asunder of both joints and marrow; therefore give heed unto my word.

D&C 14:3
Behold, the field is white already to harvest; therefore, whoso desireth to reap let him thrust in his sickle with his might, and reap while the day lasts, that he may treasure up for his soul everlasting salvation in the kingdom of God.

D&C 14:5
Therefore, if you will ass=hlblue>ask of me you shall receive; if you will knock it shall be opened unto you.

D&C 14:8
And it shall come to pass, that if you shall ass=hlblue>ask the Father in my name, in faith believing, you shall receive the Holy Ghost, which giveth utterance, that you may stand ass=hlgree>as a witness of the things of which you shall both hear and see, and also that you may declare repentance unto this generation.

D&C 14:11
And behold, thou art David, and thou art called to ass=hlblue>assist; which thing if ye do, and are faithful, ye shall be blessed both spiritually and temporally, and great shall be your reward. Amen.

D&C 17:1
Behold, I say unto you, that you must rely upon my word, which if you do with full purpose of heart, you shall have a view of the plates, and also of the breastplate, the sword of Laban, the Urim and Thummim, which were given to the brother of Jared upon the mount, when he talked with the Lord face to face, and the miraculous directors which were given to Lehi while in the wilderness, on the borders of the Red Sea.

D&C 17:2
And it is by your faith that you shall obtain a view of them, even by that faith which wass=hlblue>as had by the prophets of old.

D&C 17:5
And ye shall testify that you have seen them, even ass=hlgree>as my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., hass=hlblue>as seen them; for it is by my power that he hass=hlblue>as seen them, and it is because he had faith.

D&C 17:6
And he hass=hlblue>as translated the book, even that part which I have commanded him, and ass=hlgree>as your Lord and your God liveth it is true.

D&C 17:8
And if you do these last commandments of mine, which I have given you, the gates of hell shall not prevail against you; for my grace is sufficient for you, and you shall be lifted up at the last day.

D&C 18:7
Wherefore, ass=hlgree>as thou hast been baptized by the hands of my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., according to that which I have commanded him, he hath fulfilled the thing which I commanded him.

D&C 18:9
And now, Oliver Cowdery, I speak unto you, and also unto David Whitmer, by the way of commandment; for, behold, I command all men everywhere to repent, and I speak unto you, even ass=hlgree>as unto Paul mine apostle, for you are called even with that same calling with which he wass=hlblue>as called.

D&C 18:18
ass=hlblue>Ask the Father in my name in faith, believing that you shall receive, and you shall have the Holy Ghost, which manifesteth all things which are expedient unto the children of men.

D&C 18:22
And ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as repent and are baptized in my name, which is Jesus Christ, and endure to the end, the same shall be saved.

D&C 18:24
Wherefore, all men must take upon them the name which is given of the Father, for in that name shall they be called at the last day;

D&C 19:3
Retaining all power, even to the destroying of Satan and his works at the end of the world, and the last great day of judgment, which I shall pass upon the inhabitants thereof, judging every man according to his works and the deeds which he hath done.

D&C 19:5
Wherefore, I revoke not the judgments which I shall pass, but woes shall go forth, weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth, yea, to those who are found on my left hand.

D&C 19:8
Wherefore, I will explain unto you this mystery, for it is meet unto you to know even ass=hlgree>as mine apostles.

D&C 19:9
I speak unto you that are chosen in this thing, even ass=hlgree>as one, that you may enter into my rest.

D&C 19:17
But if they would not repent they must suffer even ass=hlgree>as I;

D&C 19:20
Wherefore, I command you again to repent, lest I humble you with my almighty power; and that you confess your sins, lest you suffer these punishments of which I have spoken, of which in the smallest, yea, even in the least degree you have tasted at the time I withdrew my Spirit.

D&C 19:27
Which is my word to the Gentile, that soon it may go to the Jew, of whom the Lamanites are a remnant, that they may believe the gospel, and look not for a Messiah to come who hass=hlblue>as already come.

D&C 19:28
And again, I command thee that thou shalt pray vocally ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as in thy heart; yea, before the world ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as in secret, in public ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as in private.

D&C 19:32
Behold, this is a great and the last commandment which I shall give unto you concerning this matter; for this shall suffice for thy daily walk, even unto the end of thy life.

D&C 19:35
Pay the debt thou hast contracted with the printer. Release thyself from bondage.

D&C 19:38
Pray always, and I will pour out my Spirit upon you, and great shall be your blessing-- yea, even more than if you should obtain treasures of earth and corruptibleness to the extent thereof.

D&C 19:40
Or canst thou run about longer ass=hlgree>as a blind guide?

D&C 20:1
The rise of the Church of Christ in these last days, being one thousand eight hundred and thirty years since the coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in the flesh, it being regularly organized and established agreeable to the laws of our country, by the will and commandments of God, in the fourth month, and on the sixth day of the month which is called April--

D&C 20:2
Which commandments were given to Joseph Smith, Jun., who wass=hlblue>as called of God, and ordained an apostle of Jesus Christ, to be the first elder of this church;

D&C 20:3
And to Oliver Cowdery, who wass=hlblue>as also called of God, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to be the second elder of this church, and ordained under his hand;

D&C 20:5
After it wass=hlblue>as truly manifested unto this first elder that he had received a remission of his sins, he wass=hlblue>as entangled again in the vanities of the world;

D&C 20:6
But after repenting, and humbling himself sincerely, through faith, God ministered unto him by an holy angel, whose countenance wass=hlblue>as ass=hlgree>as lightning, and whose garments were pure and white above all other whiteness;

D&C 20:10
Which wass=hlblue>as given by inspiration, and is confirmed to others by the ministering of angels, and is declared unto the world by them--

D&C 20:11
Proving to the world that the holy scriptures are true, and that God does inspire men and call them to his holy work in this age and generation, ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as in generations of old;

D&C 20:13
Therefore, having so great witnesses, by them shall the world be judged, even ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as shall hereafter come to a knowledge of this work.

D&C 20:16
For the Lord God hass=hlblue>as spoken it; and we, the elders of the church, have heard and bear witness to the words of the glorious Majesty on high, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

D&C 20:17
By these things we know that there is a God in heaven, who is infinite and eternal, from everlasting to everlasting the same unchangeable God, the framer of heaven and earth, and all things which are in them;

D&C 20:21
Wherefore, the Almighty God gave his Only Begotten Son, ass=hlgree>as it is written in those scriptures which have been given of him.

D&C 20:23
He wass=hlblue>as crucified, died, and rose again the third day;

D&C 20:24
And ass=hlblue>ascended into heaven, to sit down on the right hand of the Father, to reign with almighty power according to the will of the Father;

D&C 20:25
That ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as would believe and be baptized in his holy name, and endure in faith to the end, should be saved--

D&C 20:26
Not only those who believed after he came in the meridian of time, in the flesh, but all those from the beginning, even ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as were before he came, who believed in the words of the holy prophets, who spake ass=hlgree>as they were inspired by the gift of the Holy Ghost, who truly testified of him in all things, should have eternal life,

D&C 20:27
ass=hlgree>As well ass=hlgree>as those who should come after, who should believe in the gifts and callings of God by the Holy Ghost, which beareth record of the Father and of the Son;

D&C 20:36
And the Lord God hass=hlblue>as spoken it; and honor, power and glory be rendered to his holy name, both now and ever. Amen.

D&C 20:45
The elders are to conduct the meetings ass=hlgree>as they are led by the Holy Ghost, according to the commandments and revelations of God.

D&C 20:52
In all these duties the priest is to ass=hlblue>assist the elder if occasion requires.

D&C 20:57
And is to be ass=hlblue>assisted always, in all his duties in the church, by the deacons, if occasion requires.

D&C 20:61
The several elders composing this church of Christ are to meet in conference once in three months, or from time to time ass=hlgree>as said conferences shall direct or appoint;

D&C 20:71
No one can be received into the church of Christ unless he hass=hlblue>as arrived unto the years of accountability before God, and is capable of repentance.

D&C 20:73
The person who is called of God and hass=hlblue>as authority from Jesus Christ to baptize, shall go down into the water with the person who hass=hlblue>as presented himself or herself for baptism, and shall say, calling him or her by name: Having been commissioned of Jesus Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

D&C 20:77
O God, the Eternal Father, we ass=hlblue>ask thee in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ, to bless and sanctify this bread to the souls of all those who partake of it, that they may eat in remembrance of the body of thy Son, and witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they are willing to take upon them the name of thy Son, and always remember him and keep his commandments which he hass=hlblue>as given them; that they may always have his Spirit to be with them. Amen.

D&C 20:79
O God, the Eternal Father, we ass=hlblue>ask thee in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ, to bless and sanctify this wine to the souls of all those who drink of it, that they may do it in remembrance of the blood of thy Son, which wass=hlblue>as shed for them; that they may witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they do always remember him, that they may have his Spirit to be with them. Amen.

D&C 20:80
Any member of the church of Christ transgressing, or being overtaken in a fault, shall be dealt with ass=hlgree>as the scriptures direct.

D&C 20:82
With a list of the names of the several members uniting themselves with the church since the last conference; or send by the hand of some priest; so that a regular list of all the names of the whole church may be kept in a book by one of the elders, whomsoever the other elders shall appoint from time to time;

D&C 21:3
Which church wass=hlblue>as organized and established in the year of your Lord eighteen hundred and thirty, in the fourth month, and on the sixth day of the month which is called April.

D&C 21:4
Wherefore, meaning the church, thou shalt give heed unto all his words and commandments which he shall give unto you ass=hlgree>as he receiveth them, walking in all holiness before me;

D&C 21:5
For his word ye shall receive, ass=hlgree>as if from mine own mouth, in all patience and faith.

D&C 21:9
For, behold, I will bless all those who labor in my vineyard with a mighty blessing, and they shall believe on his words, which are given him through me by the Comforter, which manifesteth that Jesus wass=hlblue>as crucified by sinful men for the sins of the world, yea, for the remission of sins unto the contrite heart.

D&C 22:1
Behold, I say unto you that all old covenants have I caused to be done away in this thing; and this is a new and an everlasting covenant, even that which wass=hlblue>as from the beginning.

D&C 22:3
For it is because of your dead works that I have caused this last covenant and this church to be built up unto me, even ass=hlgree>as in days of old.

D&C 22:4
Wherefore, enter ye in at the gate, ass=hlgree>as I have commanded, and seek not to counsel your God. Amen.

D&C 23:4
Behold, I speak a few words unto you, Samuel; for thou also art under no condemnation, and thy calling is to exhortation, and to strengthen the church; and thou art not ass=hlgree>as yet called to preach before the world. Amen.

D&C 23:6
Behold, I manifest unto you, Joseph Knight, by these words, that you must take up your cross, in the which you must pray vocally before the world ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as in secret, and in your family, and among your friends, and in all places.

D&C 24:1
Behold, thou wast called and chosen to write the Book of Mormon, and to my ministry; and I have lifted thee up out of thine afflictions, and have counseled thee, that thou hast been delivered from all thine enemies, and thou hast been delivered from the powers of Satan and from darkness!

D&C 24:3
Magnify thine office; and after thou hast sowed thy fields and secured them, go speedily unto the church which is in Colesville, Fayette, and Manchester, and they shall support thee; and I will bless them both spiritually and temporally;

D&C 24:12
And at all times, and in all places, he shall open his mouth and declare my gospel ass=hlgree>as with the voice of a trump, both day and night. And I will give unto him strength such ass=hlgree>as is not known among men.

D&C 24:13
Require not miracles, except I shall command you, except casting out devils, healing the sick, and against poisonous serpents, and against deadly poisons;

D&C 24:15
And in whatsoever place ye shall enter, and they receive you not in my name, ye shall leave a cursing instead of a blessing, by casting off the dust of your feet against them ass=hlgree>as a testimony, and cleansing your feet by the wayside.

D&C 24:16
And it shall come to pass that whosoever shall lay their hands upon you by violence, ye shall command to be smitten in my name; and, behold, I will smite them according to your words, in mine own due time.

D&C 24:19
For thou art called to prune my vineyard with a mighty pruning, yea, even for the last time; yea, and also all those whom thou hast ordained, and they shall do even according to this pattern. Amen.

D&C 25:4
Murmur not because of the things which thou hast not seen, for they are withheld from thee and from the world, which is wisdom in me in a time to come.

D&C 25:7
And thou shalt be ordained under his hand to expound scriptures, and to exhort the church, according ass=hlgree>as it shall be given thee by my Spirit.

D&C 25:10
And verily I say unto thee that thou shalt lay ass=hlblue>aside the things of this world, and seek for the things of a better.

D&C 25:11
And it shall be given thee, also, to make a selection of sacred hymns, ass=hlgree>as it shall be given thee, which is pleasing unto me, to be had in my church.

D&C 25:13
Wherefore, lift up thy heart and rejoice, and cleave unto the covenants which thou hast made.

D&C 26:1
Behold, I say unto you that you shall let your time be devoted to the studying of the scriptures, and to preaching, and to confirming the church at Colesville, and to performing your labors on the land, such ass=hlgree>as is required, until after you shall go to the west to hold the next conference; and then it shall be made known what you shall do.

D&C 27:2
For, behold, I say unto you, that it mattereth not what ye shall eat or what ye shall drink when ye partake of the sacrament, if it so be that ye do it with an eye single to my glory-- remembering unto the Father my body which wass=hlblue>as laid down for you, and my blood which wass=hlblue>as shed for the remission of your sins.

D&C 27:3
Wherefore, a commandment I give unto you, that you shall not purchase wine neither strong drink of your enemies;

D&C 27:5
Behold, this is wisdom in me; wherefore, marvel not, for the hour cometh that I will drink of the fruit of the vine with you on the earth, and with Moroni, whom I have sent unto you to reveal the Book of Mormon, containing the fulness of my everlasting gospel, to whom I have committed the keys of the record of the stick of Ephraim;

D&C 27:6
And also with Eliass=hlblue>as, to whom I have committed the keys of bringing to pass the restoration of all things spoken by the mouth of all the holy prophets since the world began, concerning the last days;

D&C 27:7
And also John the son of Zachariass=hlblue>as, which Zachariass=hlblue>as he (Eliass=hlblue>as) visited and gave promise that he should have a son, and his name should be John, and he should be filled with the spirit of Eliass=hlblue>as;

D&C 27:8
Which John I have sent unto you, my servants, Joseph Smith, Jun., and Oliver Cowdery, to ordain you unto the first priesthood which you have received, that you might be called and ordained even ass=hlgree>as Aaron;

D&C 27:13
Unto whom I have committed the keys of my kingdom, and a dispensation of the gospel for the last times; and for the fulness of times, in the which I will gather together in one all things, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth;

D&C 27:16
Stand, therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, having on the breastplate of righteousness, and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace, which I have sent mine angels to commit unto you;

D&C 27:18
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of my Spirit, which I will pour out upon you, and my word which I reveal unto you, and be agreed ass=hlgree>as touching all things whatsoever ye ass=hlblue>ask of me, and be faithful until I come, and ye shall be caught up, that where I am ye shall be also. Amen.

D&C 28:2
But, behold, verily, verily, I say unto thee, no one shall be appointed to receive commandments and revelations in this church excepting my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., for he receiveth them even ass=hlgree>as Moses.

D&C 28:3
And thou shalt be obedient unto the things which I shall give unto him, even ass=hlgree>as Aaron, to declare faithfully the commandments and the revelations, with power and authority unto the church.

D&C 28:8
And now, behold, I say unto you that you shall go unto the Lamanites and preach my gospel unto them; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they receive thy teachings thou shalt cause my church to be established among them; and thou shalt have revelations, but write them not by way of commandment.

D&C 28:14
And thou shalt ass=hlblue>assist to settle all these things, according to the covenants of the church, before thou shalt take thy journey among the Lamanites.

D&C 29:2
Who will gather his people even ass=hlgree>as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, even ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as will hearken to my voice and humble themselves before me, and call upon me in mighty prayer.

D&C 29:4
Verily, I say unto you that ye are chosen out of the world to declare my gospel with the sound of rejoicing, ass=hlgree>as with the voice of a trump.

D&C 29:6
And, ass=hlgree>as it is written-- Whatsoever ye shall ass=hlblue>ask in faith, being united in prayer according to my command, ye shall receive.

D&C 29:7
And ye are called to bring to pass the gathering of mine elect; for mine elect hear my voice and harden not their hearts;

D&C 29:9
For the hour is nigh and the day soon at hand when the earth is ripe; and all the proud and they that do wickedly shall be ass=hlgree>as stubble; and I will burn them up, saith the Lord of Hosts, that wickedness shall not be upon the earth;

D&C 29:10
For the hour is nigh, and that which wass=hlblue>as spoken by mine apostles must be fulfilled; for ass=hlgree>as they spoke so shall it come to pass;

D&C 29:12
And again, verily, verily, I say unto you, and it hath gone forth in a firm decree, by the will of the Father, that mine apostles, the Twelve which were with me in my ministry at Jerusalem, shall stand at my right hand at the day of my coming in a pillar of fire, being clothed with robes of righteousness, with crowns upon their heads, in glory even ass=hlgree>as I am, to judge the whole house of Israel, even ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as have loved me and kept my commandments, and none else.

D&C 29:13
For a trump shall sound both long and loud, even ass=hlgree>as upon Mount Sinai, and all the earth shall quake, and they shall come forth-- yea, even the dead which died in me, to receive a crown of righteousness, and to be clothed upon, even ass=hlgree>as I am, to be with me, that we may be one.

D&C 29:17
And it shall come to pass, because of the wickedness of the world, that I will take vengeance upon the wicked, for they will not repent; for the cup of mine indignation is full; for behold, my blood shall not cleanse them if they hear me not.

D&C 29:20
And it shall come to pass that the beasts of the forest and the fowls of the air shall devour them up.

D&C 29:21
And the great and abominable church, which is the whore of all the earth, shall be cast down by devouring fire, according ass=hlgree>as it is spoken by the mouth of Ezekiel the prophet, who spoke of these things, which have not come to pass but surely must, ass=hlgree>as I live, for abominations shall not reign.

D&C 29:22
And again, verily, verily, I say unto you that when the thousand years are ended, and men again begin to deny their God, then will I spare the earth but for a little season;

D&C 29:23
And the end shall come, and the heaven and the earth shall be consumed and pass away, and there shall be a new heaven and a new earth.

D&C 29:24
For all old things shall pass away, and all things shall become new, even the heaven and the earth, and all the fulness thereof, both men and beasts, the fowls of the air, and the fishes of the sea;

D&C 29:26
But, behold, verily I say unto you, before the earth shall pass away, Michael, mine archangel, shall sound his trump, and then shall all the dead awake, for their graves shall be opened, and they shall come forth-- yea, even all.

D&C 29:27
And the righteous shall be gathered on my right hand unto eternal life; and the wicked on my left hand will I be ass=hlblue>ashamed to own before the Father;

D&C 29:28
Wherefore I will say unto them-- Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels.

D&C 29:30
But remember that all my judgments are not given unto men; and ass=hlgree>as the words have gone forth out of my mouth even so shall they be fulfilled, that the first shall be last, and that the last shall be first in all things whatsoever I have created by the word of my power, which is the power of my Spirit.

D&C 29:32
First spiritual, secondly temporal, which is the beginning of my work; and again, first temporal, and secondly spiritual, which is the last of my work--

D&C 29:33
Speaking unto you that you may naturally understand; but unto myself my works have no end, neither beginning; but it is given unto you that ye may understand, because ye have ass=hlblue>asked it of me and are agreed.

D&C 29:34
Wherefore, verily I say unto you that all things unto me are spiritual, and not at any time have I given unto you a law which wass=hlblue>as temporal; neither any man, nor the children of men; neither Adam, your father, whom I created.

D&C 29:36
And it came to pass that Adam, being tempted of the devil-- for, behold, the devil wass=hlblue>as before Adam, for he rebelled against me, saying, Give me thine honor, which is my power; and also a third part of the hosts of heaven turned he away from me because of their agency;

D&C 29:40
Wherefore, it came to pass that the devil tempted Adam, and he partook of the forbidden fruit and transgressed the commandment, wherein he became subject to the will of the devil, because he yielded unto temptation.

D&C 29:41
Wherefore, I, the Lord God, caused that he should be cast out from the Garden of Eden, from my presence, because of his transgression, wherein he became spiritually dead, which is the first death, even that same death which is the last death, which is spiritual, which shall be pronounced upon the wicked when I shall say: Depart, ye cursed.

D&C 29:42
But, behold, I say unto you that I, the Lord God, gave unto Adam and unto his seed, that they should not die ass=hlgree>as to the temporal death, until I, the Lord God, should send forth angels to declare unto them repentance and redemption, through faith on the name of mine Only Begotten Son.

D&C 29:43
And thus did I, the Lord God, appoint unto man the days of his probation-- that by his natural death he might be raised in immortality unto eternal life, even ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as would believe;

D&C 29:48
For it is given unto them even ass=hlgree>as I will, according to mine own pleasure, that great things may be required at the hand of their fathers.

D&C 29:50
And he that hath no understanding, it remaineth in me to do according ass=hlgree>as it is written. And now I declare no more unto you at this time. Amen.

D&C 30:1
Behold, I say unto you, David, that you have feared man and have not relied on me for strength ass=hlgree>as you ought.

D&C 30:2
But your mind hass=hlblue>as been on the things of the earth more than on the things of me, your Maker, and the ministry whereunto you have been called; and you have not given heed unto my Spirit, and to those who were set over you, but have been persuaded by those whom I have not commanded.

D&C 30:5
Behold, I say unto you, Peter, that you shall take your journey with your brother Oliver; for the time hass=hlblue>as come that it is expedient in me that you shall open your mouth to declare my gospel; therefore, fear not, but give heed unto the words and advice of your brother, which he shall give you.

D&C 30:9
Behold, I say unto you, my servant John, that thou shalt commence from this time forth to proclaim my gospel, ass=hlgree>as with the voice of a trump.

D&C 31:1
Thomass=hlblue>as, my son, blessed are you because of your faith in my work.

D&C 31:9
Be patient in afflictions, revile not against those that revile. Govern your house in meekness, and be steadfast.

D&C 32:1
And now concerning my servant Parley P. Pratt, behold, I say unto him that ass=hlgree>as I live I will that he shall declare my gospel and learn of me, and be meek and lowly of heart.

D&C 33:1
Behold, I say unto you, my servants Ezra and Northrop, open ye your ears and hearken to the voice of the Lord your God, whose word is quick and powerful, sharper than a two-edged sword, to the dividing ass=hlblue>asunder of the joints and marrow, soul and spirit; and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

D&C 33:2
For verily, verily, I say unto you that ye are called to lift up your voices ass=hlgree>as with the sound of a trump, to declare my gospel unto a crooked and perverse generation.

D&C 33:3
For behold, the field is white already to harvest; and it is the eleventh hour, and the last time that I shall call laborers into my vineyard.

D&C 33:4
And my vineyard hass=hlblue>as become corrupted every whit; and there is none which doeth good save it be a few; and they err in many instances because of priestcrafts, all having corrupt minds.

D&C 33:6
And even so will I gather mine elect from the four quarters of the earth, even ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as will believe in me, and hearken unto my voice.

D&C 33:8
Open your mouths and they shall be filled, and you shall become even ass=hlgree>as Nephi of old, who journeyed from Jerusalem in the wilderness.

D&C 34:3
Who so loved the world that he gave his own life, that ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as would believe might become the sons of God. Wherefore you are my son;

D&C 34:6
To lift up your voice ass=hlgree>as with the sound of a trump, both long and loud, and cry repentance unto a crooked and perverse generation, preparing the way of the Lord for his second coming.

D&C 35:1
Listen to the voice of the Lord your God, even Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, whose course is one eternal round, the same today ass=hlgree>as yesterday, and forever.

D&C 35:2
I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who wass=hlblue>as crucified for the sins of the world, even ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as will believe on my name, that they may become the sons of God, even one in me ass=hlgree>as I am one in the Father, ass=hlgree>as the Father is one in me, that we may be one.

D&C 35:4
Thou art blessed, for thou shalt do great things. Behold thou wast sent forth, even ass=hlgree>as John, to prepare the way before me, and before Elijah which should come, and thou knewest it not.

D&C 35:6
But now I give unto thee a commandment, that thou shalt baptize by water, and they shall receive the Holy Ghost by the laying on of the hands, even ass=hlgree>as the apostles of old.

D&C 35:7
And it shall come to pass that there shall be a great work in the land, even among the Gentiles, for their folly and their abominations shall be made manifest in the eyes of all people.

D&C 35:9
And whoso shall ass=hlblue>ask it in my name in faith, they shall cast out devils; they shall heal the sick; they shall cause the blind to receive their sight, and the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak, and the lame to walk.

D&C 35:11
But without faith shall not anything be shown forth except desolations upon Babylon, the same which hass=hlblue>as made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

D&C 35:20
And a commandment I give unto thee-- that thou shalt write for him; and the scriptures shall be given, even ass=hlgree>as they are in mine own bosom, to the salvation of mine own elect;

D&C 35:21
For they will hear my voice, and shall see me, and shall not be ass=hlblue>asleep, and shall abide the day of my coming; for they shall be purified, even ass=hlgree>as I am pure.

D&C 35:23
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye do not write, behold, it shall be given unto him to prophesy; and thou shalt preach my gospel and call on the holy prophets to prove his words, ass=hlgree>as they shall be given him.

D&C 36:1
Thus saith the Lord God, the Mighty One of Israel: Behold, I say unto you, my servant Edward, that you are blessed, and your sins are forgiven you, and you are called to preach my gospel ass=hlgree>as with the voice of a trump;

D&C 36:5
That ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as shall come before my servants Sidney Rigdon and Joseph Smith, Jun., embracing this calling and commandment, shall be ordained and sent forth to preach the everlasting gospel among the nations--

D&C 36:7
And this commandment shall be given unto the elders of my church, that every man which will embrace it with singleness of heart may be ordained and sent forth, even ass=hlgree>as I have spoken.

D&C 37:3
And again, a commandment I give unto the church, that it is expedient in me that they should ass=hlblue>assemble together at the Ohio, against the time that my servant Oliver Cowdery shall return unto them.

D&C 38:1
Thus saith the Lord your God, even Jesus Christ, the Great I Am, Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the same which looked upon the wide expanse of eternity, and all the seraphic hosts of heaven, before the world wass=hlblue>as made;

D&C 38:3
I am the same which spake, and the world wass=hlblue>as made, and all things came by me.

D&C 38:4
I am the same which have taken the Zion of Enoch into mine own bosom; and verily, I say, even ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as have believed in my name, for I am Christ, and in mine own name, by the virtue of the blood which I have spilt, have I pleaded before the Father for them.

D&C 38:10
Verily I say unto you, ye are clean, but not all; and there is none else with whom I am well pleased;

D&C 38:13
And now I show unto you a mystery, a thing which is had in secret chambers, to bring to pass even your destruction in process of time, and ye knew it not;

D&C 38:20
And this shall be my covenant with you, ye shall have it for the land of your inheritance, and for the inheritance of your children forever, while the earth shall stand, and ye shall possess it again in eternity, no more to pass away.

D&C 38:24
And let every man esteem his brother ass=hlgree>as himself, and practice virtue and holiness before me.

D&C 38:25
And again I say unto you, let every man esteem his brother ass=hlgree>as himself.

D&C 38:27
Behold, this I have given unto you ass=hlgree>as a parable, and it is even ass=hlgree>as I am. I say unto you, be one; and if ye are not one ye are not mine.

D&C 38:30
I tell you these things because of your prayers; wherefore, treasure up wisdom in your bosoms, lest the wickedness of men reveal these things unto you by their wickedness, in a manner which shall speak in your ears with a voice louder than that which shall shake the earth; but if ye are prepared ye shall not fear.

D&C 38:37
And they that have farms that cannot be sold, let them be left or rented ass=hlgree>as seemeth them good.

D&C 38:39
And if ye seek the riches which it is the will of the Father to give unto you, ye shall be the richest of all people, for ye shall have the riches of eternity; and it must needs be that the riches of the earth are mine to give; but beware of pride, lest ye become ass=hlgree>as the Nephites of old.

D&C 39:4
But to ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as received me, gave I power to become my sons; and even so will I give unto ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as will receive me, power to become my sons.

D&C 39:9
Nevertheless, thou hast seen great sorrow, for thou hast rejected me many times because of pride and the cares of the world.

D&C 39:10
But, behold, the days of thy deliverance are come, if thou wilt hearken to my voice, which saith unto thee: Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on my name, and you shall receive my Spirit, and a blessing so great ass=hlgree>as you never have known.

D&C 39:11
And if thou do this, I have prepared thee for a greater work. Thou shalt preach the fulness of my gospel, which I have sent forth in these last days, the covenant which I have sent forth to recover my people, which are of the house of Israel.

D&C 39:12
And it shall come to pass that power shall rest upon thee; thou shalt have great faith, and I will be with thee and go before thy face.

D&C 39:14
Behold, verily, verily, I say unto thee, thou art not called to go into the eastern countries, but thou art called to go to the Ohio.

D&C 39:15
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as my people shall ass=hlblue>assemble themselves at the Ohio, I have kept in store a blessing such ass=hlgree>as is not known among the children of men, and it shall be poured forth upon their heads. And from thence men shall go forth into all nations.

D&C 39:17
Wherefore lay to with your might and call faithful laborers into my vineyard, that it may be pruned for the last time.

D&C 39:18
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they do repent and receive the fulness of my gospel, and become sanctified, I will stay mine hand in judgment.

D&C 39:23
And again, it shall come to pass that on ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as ye shall baptize with water, ye shall lay your hands, and they shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, and shall be looking forth for the signs of my coming, and shall know me.

D&C 40:1
Behold, verily I say unto you, that the heart of my servant James Covel wass=hlblue>as right before me, for he covenanted with me that he would obey my word.

D&C 40:3
Wherefore he broke my covenant, and it remaineth with me to do with him ass=hlgree>as seemeth me good. Amen.

D&C 41:2
Hearken, O ye elders of my church whom I have called, behold I give unto you a commandment, that ye shall ass=hlblue>assemble yourselves together to agree upon my word;

D&C 41:5
He that receiveth my law and doeth it, the same is my disciple; and he that saith he receiveth it and doeth it not, the same is not my disciple, and shall be cast out from among you;

D&C 41:6
For it is not meet that the things which belong to the children of the kingdom should be given to them that are not worthy, or to dogs, or the pearls to be cast before swine.

D&C 41:8
And again, it is meet that my servant Sidney Rigdon should live ass=hlgree>as seemeth him good, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he keepeth my commandments.

D&C 41:10
To see to all things ass=hlgree>as it shall be appointed unto him in my laws in the day that I shall give them.

D&C 42:1
Hearken, O ye elders of my church, who have ass=hlblue>assembled yourselves together in my name, even Jesus Christ the Son of the living God, the Savior of the world; inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye believe on my name and keep my commandments.

D&C 42:3
For verily I say, ass=hlgree>as ye have ass=hlblue>assembled yourselves together according to the commandment wherewith I commanded you, and are agreed ass=hlgree>as touching this one thing, and have ass=hlblue>asked the Father in my name, even so ye shall receive.

D&C 42:5
And I give unto them a commandment that they shall go forth for a little season, and it shall be given by the power of the Spirit when they shall return.

D&C 42:6
And ye shall go forth in the power of my Spirit, preaching my gospel, two by two, in my name, lifting up your voices ass=hlgree>as with the sound of a trump, declaring my word like unto angels of God.

D&C 42:8
And from this place ye shall go forth into the regions westward; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye shall find them that will receive you ye shall build up my church in every region--

D&C 42:10
And again, I say unto you, that my servant Edward Partridge shall stand in the office whereunto I have appointed him. And it shall come to pass, that if he transgress another shall be appointed in his stead. Even so. Amen.

D&C 42:11
Again I say unto you, that it shall not be given to any one to go forth to preach my gospel, or to build up my church, except he be ordained by some one who hass=hlblue>as authority, and it is known to the church that he hass=hlblue>as authority and hass=hlblue>as been regularly ordained by the heads of the church.

D&C 42:13
And they shall observe the covenants and church articles to do them, and these shall be their teachings, ass=hlgree>as they shall be directed by the Spirit.

D&C 42:15
And all this ye shall observe to do ass=hlgree>as I have commanded concerning your teaching, until the fulness of my scriptures is given.

D&C 42:16
And ass=hlgree>as ye shall lift up your voices by the Comforter, ye shall speak and prophesy ass=hlgree>as seemeth me good;

D&C 42:20
Thou shalt not steal; and he that stealeth and will not repent shall be cast out.

D&C 42:21
Thou shalt not lie; he that lieth and will not repent shall be cast out.

D&C 42:23
And he that looketh upon a woman to lust after her shall deny the faith, and shall not have the Spirit; and if he repents not he shall be cast out.

D&C 42:24
Thou shalt not commit adultery; and he that committeth adultery, and repenteth not, shall be cast out.

D&C 42:25
But he that hass=hlblue>as committed adultery and repents with all his heart, and forsaketh it, and doeth it no more, thou shalt forgive;

D&C 42:26
But if he doeth it again, he shall not be forgiven, but shall be cast out.

D&C 42:28
Thou knowest my laws concerning these things are given in my scriptures; he that sinneth and repenteth not shall be cast out.

D&C 42:30
And behold, thou wilt remember the poor, and consecrate of thy properties for their support that which thou hast to impart unto them, with a covenant and a deed which cannot be broken.

D&C 42:31
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye impart of your substance unto the poor, ye will do it unto me; and they shall be laid before the bishop of my church and his counselors, two of the elders, or high priests, such ass=hlgree>as he shall appoint or hass=hlblue>as appointed and set apart for that purpose.

D&C 42:32
And it shall come to pass, that after they are laid before the bishop of my church, and after that he hass=hlblue>as received these testimonies concerning the consecration of the properties of my church, that they cannot be taken from the church, agreeable to my commandments, every man shall be made accountable unto me, a steward over his own property, or that which he hass=hlblue>as received by consecration, ass=hlgree>as much ass=hlgree>as is sufficient for himself and family.

D&C 42:33
And again, if there shall be properties in the hands of the church, or any individuals of it, more than is necessary for their support after this first consecration, which is a residue to be consecrated unto the bishop, it shall be kept to administer to those who have not, from time to time, that every man who hass=hlblue>as need may be amply supplied and receive according to his wants.

D&C 42:34
Therefore, the residue shall be kept in my storehouse, to administer to the poor and the needy, ass=hlgree>as shall be appointed by the high council of the church, and the bishop and his council;

D&C 42:35
And for the purpose of purchasing lands for the public benefit of the church, and building houses of worship, and building up of the New Jerusalem which is hereafter to be revealed--

D&C 42:37
And it shall come to pass, that he that sinneth and repenteth not shall be cast out of the church, and shall not receive again that which he hass=hlblue>as consecrated unto the poor and the needy of my church, or in other words, unto me--

D&C 42:38
For inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye do it unto the least of these, ye do it unto me.

D&C 42:39
For it shall come to pass, that which I spake by the mouths of my prophets shall be fulfilled; for I will consecrate of the riches of those who embrace my gospel among the Gentiles unto the poor of my people who are of the house of Israel.

D&C 42:46
And it shall come to pass that those that die in me shall not taste of death, for it shall be sweet unto them;

D&C 42:48
And again, it shall come to pass that he that hath faith in me to be healed, and is not appointed unto death, shall be healed.

D&C 42:52
And they who have not faith to do these things, but believe in me, have power to become my sons; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they break not my laws thou shalt bear their infirmities.

D&C 42:56
Thou shalt ass=hlblue>ask, and my scriptures shall be given ass=hlgree>as I have appointed, and they shall be preserved in safety;

D&C 42:59
Thou shalt take the things which thou hast received, which have been given unto thee in my scriptures for a law, to be my law to govern my church;

D&C 42:61
If thou shalt ass=hlblue>ask, thou shalt receive revelation upon revelation, knowledge upon knowledge, that thou mayest know the mysteries and peaceable things-- that which bringeth joy, that which bringeth life eternal.

D&C 42:62
Thou shalt ass=hlblue>ask, and it shall be revealed unto you in mine own due time where the New Jerusalem shall be built.

D&C 42:63
And behold, it shall come to pass that my servants shall be sent forth to the east and to the west, to the north and to the south.

D&C 42:64
And even now, let him that goeth to the east teach them that shall be converted to flee to the west, and this in consequence of that which is coming on the earth, and of secret combinations.

D&C 42:67
And ye shall hereafter receive church covenants, such ass=hlgree>as shall be sufficient to establish you, both here and in the New Jerusalem.

D&C 42:68
Therefore, he that lacketh wisdom, let him ass=hlblue>ask of me, and I will give him liberally and upbraid him not.

D&C 42:70
The priests and teachers shall have their stewardships, even ass=hlgree>as the members.

D&C 42:71
And the elders or high priests who are appointed to ass=hlblue>assist the bishop ass=hlgree>as counselors in all things, are to have their families supported out of the property which is consecrated to the bishop, for the good of the poor, and for other purposes, ass=hlgree>as before mentioned;

D&C 42:72
Or they are to receive a just remuneration for all their services, either a stewardship or otherwise, ass=hlgree>as may be thought best or decided by the counselors and bishop.

D&C 42:74
Behold, verily I say unto you, that whatever persons among you, having put away their companions for the cause of fornication, or in other words, if they shall testify before you in all lowliness of heart that this is the case, ye shall not cast them out from among you;

D&C 42:75
But if ye shall find that any persons have left their companions for the sake of adultery, and they themselves are the offenders, and their companions are living, they shall be cast out from among you.

D&C 42:79
And it shall come to pass, that if any persons among you shall kill they shall be delivered up and dealt with according to the laws of the land; for remember that he hath no forgiveness; and it shall be proved according to the laws of the land.

D&C 42:81
But he or she shall be condemned by the mouth of two witnesses; and the elders shall lay the case before the church, and the church shall lift up their hands against him or her, that they may be dealt with according to the law of God.

D&C 42:83
And thus ye shall do in all cases which shall come before you.

D&C 42:90
And if thy brother or sister offend many, he or she shall be chastened before many.

D&C 42:91
And if any one offend openly, he or she shall be rebuked openly, that he or she may be ass=hlblue>ashamed. And if he or she confess not, he or she shall be delivered up unto the law of God.

D&C 42:92
If any shall offend in secret, he or she shall be rebuked in secret, that he or she may have opportunity to confess in secret to him or her whom he or she hass=hlblue>as offended, and to God, that the church may not speak reproachfully of him or her.

D&C 43:3
And this ye shall know ass=hlblue>assuredly-- that there is none other appointed unto you to receive commandments and revelations until he be taken, if he abide in me.

D&C 43:5
And this shall be a law unto you, that ye receive not the teachings of any that shall come before you ass=hlgree>as revelations or commandments;

D&C 43:7
For verily I say unto you, that he that is ordained of me shall come in at the gate and be ordained ass=hlgree>as I have told you before, to teach those revelations which you have received and shall receive through him whom I have appointed.

D&C 43:8
And now, behold, I give unto you a commandment, that when ye are ass=hlblue>assembled together ye shall instruct and edify each other, that ye may know how to act and direct my church, how to act upon the points of my law and commandments, which I have given.

D&C 43:10
That inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye do this, glory shall be added to the kingdom which ye have received. Inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye do it not, it shall be taken, even that which ye have received.

D&C 43:16
And ye are to be taught from on high. Sanctify yourselves and ye shall be endowed with power, that ye may give even ass=hlgree>as I have spoken.

D&C 43:22
Yea, and again, when the lightnings shall streak forth from the east unto the west, and shall utter forth their voices unto all that live, and make the ears of all tingle that hear, saying these words-- Repent ye, for the great day of the Lord is come?

D&C 43:24
O, ye nations of the earth, how often would I have gathered you together ass=hlgree>as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, but ye would not!

D&C 43:25
How oft have I called upon you by the mouth of my servants, and by the ministering of angels, and by mine own voice, and by the voice of thunderings, and by the voice of lightnings, and by the voice of tempests, and by the voice of earthquakes, and great hailstorms, and by the voice of famines and pestilences of every kind, and by the great sound of a trump, and by the voice of judgment, and by the voice of mercy all the day long, and by the voice of glory and honor and the riches of eternal life, and would have saved you with an everlasting salvation, but ye would not!

D&C 43:26
Behold, the day hass=hlblue>as come, when the cup of the wrath of mine indignation is full.

D&C 43:28
Wherefore, labor ye, labor ye in my vineyard for the last time-- for the last time call upon the inhabitants of the earth.

D&C 43:31
For Satan shall be bound, and when he is loosed again he shall only reign for a little season, and then cometh the end of the earth.

D&C 43:32
And he that liveth in righteousness shall be changed in the twinkling of an eye, and the earth shall pass away so ass=hlgree>as by fire.

D&C 43:34
Hearken ye to these words. Behold, I am Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world. Treasure these things up in your hearts, and let the solemnities of eternity rest upon your minds.

D&C 44:1
Behold, thus saith the Lord unto you my servants, it is expedient in me that the elders of my church should be called together, from the east and from the west, and from the north and from the south, by letter or some other way.

D&C 44:2
And it shall come to pass, that inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are faithful, and exercise faith in me, I will pour out my Spirit upon them in the day that they ass=hlblue>assemble themselves together.

D&C 44:3
And it shall come to pass that they shall go forth into the regions round about, and preach repentance unto the people.

D&C 45:1
Hearken, O ye people of my church, to whom the kingdom hass=hlblue>as been given; hearken ye and give ear to him who laid the foundation of the earth, who made the heavens and all the hosts thereof, and by whom all things were made which live, and move, and have a being.

D&C 45:2
And again I say, hearken unto my voice, lest death shall overtake you; in an hour when ye think not the summer shall be past, and the harvest ended, and your souls not saved.

D&C 45:4
Saying: Father, behold the sufferings and death of him who did no sin, in whom thou wast well pleased; behold the blood of thy Son which wass=hlblue>as shed, the blood of him whom thou gavest that thyself might be glorified;

D&C 45:5
Wherefore, Father, spare these my brethren that believe on my name, that they may come unto me and have everlasting life.

D&C 45:8
I came unto mine own, and mine own received me not; but unto ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as received me gave I power to do many miracles, and to become the sons of God; and even unto them that believed on my name gave I power to obtain eternal life.

D&C 45:9
And even so I have sent mine everlasting covenant into the world, to be a light to the world, and to be a standard for my people, and for the Gentiles to seek to it, and to be a messenger before my face to prepare the way before me.

D&C 45:10
Wherefore, come ye unto it, and with him that cometh I will reason ass=hlgree>as with men in days of old, and I will show unto you my strong reasoning.

D&C 45:12
Who were separated from the earth, and were received unto myself-- a city reserved until a day of righteousness shall come-- a day which wass=hlblue>as sought for by all holy men, and they found it not because of wickedness and abominations;

D&C 45:15
Wherefore, hearken and I will reason with you, and I will speak unto you and prophesy, ass=hlgree>as unto men in days of old.

D&C 45:16
And I will show it plainly ass=hlgree>as I showed it unto my disciples ass=hlgree>as I stood before them in the flesh, and spake unto them, saying: ass=hlgree>As ye have ass=hlblue>asked of me concerning the signs of my coming, in the day when I shall come in my glory in the clouds of heaven, to fulfil the promises that I have made unto your fathers,

D&C 45:17
For ass=hlgree>as ye have looked upon the long absence of your spirits from your bodies to be a bondage, I will show unto you how the day of redemption shall come, and also the restoration of the scattered Israel.

D&C 45:19
But, verily I say unto you, that desolation shall come upon this generation ass=hlgree>as a thief in the night, and this people shall be destroyed and scattered among all nations.

D&C 45:21
And it shall come to pass, that this generation of Jews shall not pass away until every desolation which I have told you concerning them shall come to pass.

D&C 45:22
Ye say that ye know that the end of the world cometh; ye say also that ye know that the heavens and the earth shall pass away;

D&C 45:23
And in this ye say truly, for so it is; but these things which I have told you shall not pass away until all shall be fulfilled.

D&C 45:31
And there shall be men standing in that generation, that shall not pass until they shall see an overflowing scourge; for a desolating sickness shall cover the land.

D&C 45:35
And I said unto them: Be not troubled, for, when all these things shall come to pass, ye may know that the promises which have been made unto you shall be fulfilled.

D&C 45:39
And it shall come to pass that he that feareth me shall be looking forth for the great day of the Lord to come, even for the signs of the coming of the Son of Man.

D&C 45:46
Wherefore, if ye have slept in peace blessed are you; for ass=hlgree>as you now behold me and know that I am, even so shall ye come unto me and your souls shall live, and your redemption shall be perfected; and the saints shall come forth from the four quarters of the earth.

D&C 45:50
And calamity shall cover the mocker, and the scorner shall be consumed; and they that have watched for iniquity shall be hewn down and cast into the fire.

D&C 45:52
Then shall they know that I am the Lord; for I will say unto them: These wounds are the wounds with which I wass=hlblue>as wounded in the house of my friends. I am he who wass=hlblue>as lifted up. I am Jesus that wass=hlblue>as crucified. I am the Son of God.

D&C 45:57
For they that are wise and have received the truth, and have taken the Holy Spirit for their guide, and have not been deceived-- verily I say unto you, they shall not be hewn down and cast into the fire, but shall abide the day.

D&C 45:64
Wherefore I, the Lord, have said, gather ye out from the eastern lands, ass=hlblue>assemble ye yourselves together ye elders of my church; go ye forth into the western countries, call upon the inhabitants to repent, and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they do repent, build up churches unto me.

D&C 45:65
And with one heart and with one mind, gather up your riches that ye may purchase an inheritance which shall hereafter be appointed unto you.

D&C 45:68
And it shall come to pass among the wicked, that every man that will not take his sword against his neighbor must needs flee unto Zion for safety.

D&C 45:71
And it shall come to pass that the righteous shall be gathered out from among all nations, and shall come to Zion, singing with songs of everlasting joy.

D&C 46:2
But notwithstanding those things which are written, it always hass=hlblue>as been given to the elders of my church from the beginning, and ever shall be, to conduct all meetings ass=hlgree>as they are directed and guided by the Holy Spirit.

D&C 46:3
Nevertheless ye are commanded never to cast any one out from your public meetings, which are held before the world.

D&C 46:4
Ye are also commanded not to cast any one who belongeth to the church out of your sacrament meetings; nevertheless, if any have trespassed, let him not partake until he makes reconciliation.

D&C 46:5
And again I say unto you, ye shall not cast any out of your sacrament meetings who are earnestly seeking the kingdom-- I speak this concerning those who are not of the church.

D&C 46:6
And again I say unto you, concerning your confirmation meetings, that if there be any that are not of the church, that are earnestly seeking after the kingdom, ye shall not cast them out.

D&C 46:7
But ye are commanded in all things to ass=hlblue>ask of God, who giveth liberally; and that which the Spirit testifies unto you even so I would that ye should do in all holiness of heart, walking uprightly before me, considering the end of your salvation, doing all things with prayer and thanksgiving, that ye may not be seduced by evil spirits, or doctrines of devils, or the commandments of men; for some are of men, and others of devils.

D&C 46:9
For verily I say unto you, they are given for the benefit of those who love me and keep all my commandments, and him that seeketh so to do; that all may be benefited that seek or that ass=hlblue>ask of me, that ass=hlblue>ask and not for a sign that they may consume it upon their lusts.

D&C 46:13
To some it is given by the Holy Ghost to know that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that he wass=hlblue>as crucified for the sins of the world.

D&C 46:15
And again, to some it is given by the Holy Ghost to know the differences of administration, ass=hlgree>as it will be pleasing unto the same Lord, according ass=hlgree>as the Lord will, suiting his mercies according to the conditions of the children of men.

D&C 46:27
And unto the bishop of the church, and unto such ass=hlgree>as God shall appoint and ordain to watch over the church and to be elders unto the church, are to have it given unto them to discern all those gifts lest there shall be any among you professing and yet be not of God.

D&C 46:28
And it shall come to pass that he that ass=hlblue>asketh in Spirit shall receive in Spirit;

D&C 46:30
He that ass=hlblue>asketh in the Spirit ass=hlblue>asketh according to the will of God; wherefore it is done even ass=hlgree>as he ass=hlblue>asketh.

D&C 47:1
Behold, it is expedient in me that my servant John should write and keep a regular history, and ass=hlblue>assist you, my servant Joseph, in transcribing all things which shall be given you, until he is called to further duties.

D&C 47:4
Wherefore, it shall be given him, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he is faithful, by the Comforter, to write these things. Even so. Amen.

D&C 48:1
It is necessary that ye should remain for the present time in your places of abode, ass=hlgree>as it shall be suitable to your circumstances.

D&C 48:2
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye have lands, ye shall impart to the eastern brethren;

D&C 48:3
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye have not lands, let them buy for the present time in those regions round about, ass=hlgree>as seemeth them good, for it must needs be necessary that they have places to live for the present time.

D&C 48:4
It must needs be necessary that ye save all the money that ye can, and that ye obtain all that ye can in righteousness, that in time ye may be enabled to purchase land for an inheritance, even the city.

D&C 48:5
The place is not yet to be revealed; but after your brethren come from the east there are to be certain men appointed, and to them it shall be given to know the place, or to them it shall be revealed.

D&C 48:6
And they shall be appointed to purchase the lands, and to make a commencement to lay the foundation of the city; and then shall ye begin to be gathered with your families, every man according to his family, according to his circumstances, and ass=hlgree>as is appointed to him by the presidency and the bishop of the church, according to the laws and commandments which ye have received, and which ye shall hereafter receive. Even so. Amen.

D&C 49:1
Hearken unto my word, my servants Sidney, and Parley, and Leman; for behold, verily I say unto you, that I give unto you a commandment that you shall go and preach my gospel which ye have received, even ass=hlgree>as ye have received it, unto the Shakers.

D&C 49:4
And my servant Leman shall be ordained unto this work, that he may reason with them, not according to that which he hass=hlblue>as received of them, but according to that which shall be taught him by you my servants; and by so doing I will bless him, otherwise he shall not prosper.

D&C 49:6
And they have done unto the Son of Man even ass=hlgree>as they listed; and he hass=hlblue>as taken his power on the right hand of his glory, and now reigneth in the heavens, and will reign till he descends on the earth to put all enemies under his feet, which time is nigh at hand--

D&C 49:9
Wherefore, I say unto you that I have sent unto you mine everlasting covenant, even that which wass=hlblue>as from the beginning.

D&C 49:11
Wherefore, I give unto you a commandment that ye go among this people, and say unto them, like unto mine apostle of old, whose name wass=hlblue>as Peter:

D&C 49:12
Believe on the name of the Lord Jesus, who wass=hlblue>as on the earth, and is to come, the beginning and the end;

D&C 49:17
And that it might be filled with the measure of man, according to his creation before the world wass=hlblue>as made.

D&C 49:19
For, behold, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, and that which cometh of the earth, is ordained for the use of man for food and for raiment, and that he might have in abundance.

D&C 49:21
And wo be unto man that sheddeth blood or that wasteth flesh and hath no need.

D&C 49:23
Wherefore, be not deceived, but continue in steadfastness, looking forth for the heavens to be shaken, and the earth to tremble and to reel to and fro ass=hlgree>as a drunken man, and for the valleys to be exalted, and for the mountains to be made low, and for the rough places to become smooth-- and all this when the angel shall sound his trumpet.

D&C 49:24
But before the great day of the Lord shall come, Jacob shall flourish in the wilderness, and the Lamanites shall blossom ass=hlgree>as the rose.

D&C 49:25
Zion shall flourish upon the hills and rejoice upon the mountains, and shall be ass=hlblue>assembled together unto the place which I have appointed.

D&C 49:26
Behold, I say unto you, go forth ass=hlgree>as I have commanded you; repent of all your sins; ass=hlblue>ask and ye shall receive; knock and it shall be opened unto you.

D&C 50:1
Hearken, O ye elders of my church, and give ear to the voice of the living God; and attend to the words of wisdom which shall be given unto you, according ass=hlgree>as ye have ass=hlblue>asked and are agreed ass=hlgree>as touching the church, and the spirits which have gone abroad in the earth.

D&C 50:7
Behold, verily I say unto you, there are hypocrites among you, who have deceived some, which hass=hlblue>as given the adversary power; but behold such shall be reclaimed;

D&C 50:8
But the hypocrites shall be detected and shall be cut off, either in life or in death, even ass=hlgree>as I will; and wo unto them who are cut off from my church, for the same are overcome of the world.

D&C 50:10
And now come, saith the Lord, by the Spirit, unto the elders of his church, and let us reason together, that ye may understand;

D&C 50:11
Let us reason even ass=hlgree>as a man reasoneth one with another face to face.

D&C 50:12
Now, when a man reasoneth he is understood of man, because he reasoneth ass=hlgree>as a man; even so will I, the Lord, reason with you that you may understand.

D&C 50:13
Wherefore, I the Lord ass=hlblue>ask you this question-- unto what were ye ordained?

D&C 50:14
To preach my gospel by the Spirit, even the Comforter which wass=hlblue>as sent forth to teach the truth.

D&C 50:21
Therefore, why is it that ye cannot understand and know, that he that receiveth the word by the Spirit of truth receiveth it ass=hlgree>as it is preached by the Spirit of truth?

D&C 50:25
And again, verily I say unto you, and I say it that you may know the truth, that you may chase darkness from among you;

D&C 50:26
He that is ordained of God and sent forth, the same is appointed to be the greatest, notwithstanding he is the least and the servant of all.

D&C 50:29
And if ye are purified and cleansed from all sin, ye shall ass=hlblue>ask whatsoever you will in the name of Jesus and it shall be done.

D&C 50:30
But know this, it shall be given you what you shall ass=hlblue>ask; and ass=hlgree>as ye are appointed to the head, the spirits shall be subject unto you.

D&C 50:31
Wherefore, it shall come to pass, that if you behold a spirit manifested that you cannot understand, and you receive not that spirit, ye shall ass=hlblue>ask of the Father in the name of Jesus; and if he give not unto you that spirit, then you may know that it is not of God.

D&C 50:33
Not with railing accusation, that ye be not overcome, neither with boasting nor rejoicing, lest you be seized therewith.

D&C 50:37
Let my servant Joseph Wakefield, in whom I am well pleased, and my servant Parley P. Pratt go forth among the churches and strengthen them by the word of exhortation;

D&C 50:38
And also my servant John Corrill, or ass=hlgree>as many of my servants ass=hlgree>as are ordained unto this office, and let them labor in the vineyard; and let no man hinder them doing that which I have appointed unto them--

D&C 50:43
And the Father and I are one. I am in the Father and the Father in me; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye have received me, ye are in me and I in you.

D&C 51:3
Wherefore, let my servant Edward Partridge, and those whom he hass=hlblue>as chosen, in whom I am well pleased, appoint unto this people their portions, every man equal according to his family, according to his circumstances and his wants and needs.

D&C 51:5
And if he shall transgress and is not accounted worthy to belong to the church, he shall not have power to claim that portion which he hass=hlblue>as consecrated unto the bishop for the poor and needy of my church; therefore, he shall not retain the gift, but shall only have claim on that portion that is deeded unto him.

D&C 51:9
And let every man deal honestly, and be alike among this people, and receive alike, that ye may be one, even ass=hlgree>as I have commanded you.

D&C 51:11
Wherefore, if another church would receive money of this church, let them pay unto this church again according ass=hlgree>as they shall agree;

D&C 51:14
And let him also reserve unto himself for his own wants, and for the wants of his family, ass=hlgree>as he shall be employed in doing this business.

D&C 51:16
And I consecrate unto them this land for a little season, until I, the Lord, shall provide for them otherwise, and command them to go hence;

D&C 51:17
And the hour and the day is not given unto them, wherefore let them act upon this land ass=hlgree>as for years, and this shall turn unto them for their good.

D&C 52:1
Behold, thus saith the Lord unto the elders whom he hath called and chosen in these last days, by the voice of his Spirit--

D&C 52:3
Wherefore, verily I say unto you, let my servants Joseph Smith, Jun., and Sidney Rigdon take their journey ass=hlgree>as soon ass=hlgree>as preparations can be made to leave their homes, and journey to the land of Missouri.

D&C 52:4
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are faithful unto me, it shall be made known unto them what they shall do;

D&C 52:5
And it shall also, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are faithful, be made known unto them the land of your inheritance.

D&C 52:6
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are not faithful, they shall be cut off, even ass=hlgree>as I will, ass=hlgree>as seemeth me good.

D&C 52:12
And let my servant Lyman Wight beware, for Satan desireth to sift him ass=hlgree>as chaff.

D&C 52:19
Wherefore, by this pattern ye shall know the spirits in all cases under the whole heavens.

D&C 52:22
And again, verily I say unto you, let my servant Thomass=hlblue>as B. Marsh and my servant Ezra Thayre take their journey also, preaching the word by the way unto this same land.

D&C 52:35
And again, I say unto you, let my servants Joseph Wakefield and Solomon Humphrey take their journey into the eastern lands;

D&C 52:36
Let them labor with their families, declaring none other things than the prophets and apostles, that which they have seen and heard and most ass=hlblue>assuredly believe, that the prophecies may be fulfilled.

D&C 52:37
In consequence of transgression, let that which wass=hlblue>as bestowed upon Heman Basset be taken from him, and placed upon the head of Simonds Ryder.

D&C 52:42
And thus, even ass=hlgree>as I have said, if ye are faithful ye shall ass=hlblue>assemble yourselves together to rejoice upon the land of Missouri, which is the land of your inheritance, which is now the land of your enemies.

D&C 52:43
But, behold, I, the Lord, will hasten the city in its time, and will crown the faithful with joy and with rejoicing.

D&C 52:44
Behold, I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God, and I will lift them up at the last day. Even so. Amen.

D&C 53:1
Behold, I say unto you, my servant Sidney Gilbert, that I have heard your prayers; and you have called upon me that it should be made known unto you, of the Lord your God, concerning your calling and election in the church, which I, the Lord, have raised up in these last days.

D&C 53:2
Behold, I, the Lord, who wass=hlblue>as crucified for the sins of the world, give unto you a commandment that you shall forsake the world.

D&C 54:1
Behold, thus saith the Lord, even Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, even he who wass=hlblue>as crucified for the sins of the world--

D&C 54:2
Behold, verily, verily, I say unto you, my servant Newel Knight, you shall stand fast in the office whereunto I have appointed you.

D&C 54:4
And ass=hlgree>as the covenant which they made unto me hass=hlblue>as been broken, even so it hass=hlblue>as become void and of none effect.

D&C 55:1
Behold, thus saith the Lord unto you, my servant William, yea, even the Lord of the whole earth, thou art called and chosen; and after thou hast been baptized by water, which if you do with an eye single to my glory, you shall have a remission of your sins and a reception of the Holy Spirit by the laying on of hands;

D&C 55:4
And again, you shall be ordained to ass=hlblue>assist my servant Oliver Cowdery to do the work of printing, and of selecting and writing books for schools in this church, that little children also may receive instruction before me ass=hlgree>as is pleasing unto me.

D&C 55:6
And again, let my servant Joseph Coe also take his journey with them. The residue shall be made known hereafter, even ass=hlgree>as I will. Amen.

D&C 56:4
Wherefore I, the Lord, command and revoke, ass=hlgree>as it seemeth me good; and all this to be answered upon the heads of the rebellious, saith the Lord.

D&C 56:5
Wherefore, I revoke the commandment which wass=hlblue>as given unto my servants Thomass=hlblue>as B. Marsh and Ezra Thayre, and give a new commandment unto my servant Thomass=hlblue>as, that he shall take up his journey speedily to the land of Missouri, and my servant Selah J. Griffin shall also go with him.

D&C 56:6
For behold, I revoke the commandment which wass=hlblue>as given unto my servants Selah J. Griffin and Newel Knight, in consequence of the stiffneckedness of my people which are in Thompson, and their rebellions.

D&C 56:7
Wherefore, let my servant Newel Knight remain with them; and ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as will go may go, that are contrite before me, and be led by him to the land which I have appointed.

D&C 56:9
And if he will do this, ass=hlgree>as there shall be no divisions made upon the land, he shall be appointed still to go to the land of Missouri;

D&C 56:10
Otherwise he shall receive the money which he hass=hlblue>as paid, and shall leave the place, and shall be cut off out of my church, saith the Lord God of hosts;

D&C 56:11
And though the heaven and the earth pass away, these words shall not pass away, but shall be fulfilled.

D&C 56:15
And your hearts are not satisfied. And ye obey not the truth, but have pleasure in unrighteousness.

D&C 56:16
Wo unto you rich men, that will not give your substance to the poor, for your riches will canker your souls; and this shall be your lamentation in the day of visitation, and of judgment, and of indignation: The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and my soul is not saved!

D&C 57:1
Hearken, O ye elders of my church, saith the Lord your God, who have ass=hlblue>assembled yourselves together, according to my commandments, in this land, which is the land of Missouri, which is the land which I have appointed and consecrated for the gathering of the saints.

D&C 57:4
Wherefore, it is wisdom that the land should be purchased by the saints, and also every tract lying westward, even unto the line running directly between Jew and Gentile;

D&C 57:5
And also every tract bordering by the prairies, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as my disciples are enabled to buy lands. Behold, this is wisdom, that they may obtain it for an everlasting inheritance.

D&C 57:6
And let my servant Sidney Gilbert stand in the office to which I have appointed him, to receive moneys, to be an agent unto the church, to buy land in all the regions round about, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as can be done in righteousness, and ass=hlgree>as wisdom shall direct.

D&C 57:7
And let my servant Edward Partridge stand in the office to which I have appointed him, and divide unto the saints their inheritance, even ass=hlgree>as I have commanded; and also those whom he hass=hlblue>as appointed to ass=hlblue>assist him.

D&C 57:9
And also let my servant Sidney Gilbert obtain a license-- behold here is wisdom, and whoso readeth let him understand-- that he may send goods also unto the people, even by whom he will ass=hlgree>as clerks employed in his service;

D&C 57:11
And again, verily I say unto you, let my servant William W. Phelps be planted in this place, and be established ass=hlgree>as a printer unto the church.

D&C 57:13
And let my servant Oliver Cowdery ass=hlblue>assist him, even ass=hlgree>as I have commanded, in whatsoever place I shall appoint unto him, to copy, and to correct, and select, that all things may be right before me, ass=hlgree>as it shall be proved by the Spirit through him.

D&C 57:14
And thus let those of whom I have spoken be planted in the land of Zion, ass=hlgree>as speedily ass=hlgree>as can be, with their families, to do those things even ass=hlgree>as I have spoken.

D&C 57:15
And now concerning the gathering-- Let the bishop and the agent make preparations for those families which have been commanded to come to this land, ass=hlgree>as soon ass=hlgree>as possible, and plant them in their inheritance.

D&C 58:8
And also that a feast of fat things might be prepared for the poor; yea, a feast of fat things, of wine on the lees well refined, that the earth may know that the mouths of the prophets shall not fail;

D&C 58:17
And whoso standeth in this mission is appointed to be a judge in Israel, like ass=hlgree>as it wass=hlblue>as in ancient days, to divide the lands of the heritage of God unto his children;

D&C 58:18
And to judge his people by the testimony of the just, and by the ass=hlblue>assistance of his counselors, according to the laws of the kingdom which are given by the prophets of God.

D&C 58:24
And now, ass=hlgree>as I spake concerning my servant Edward Partridge, this land is the land of his residence, and those whom he hass=hlblue>as appointed for his counselors; and also the land of the residence of him whom I have appointed to keep my storehouse;

D&C 58:25
Wherefore, let them bring their families to this land, ass=hlgree>as they shall counsel between themselves and me.

D&C 58:27
Verily I say, men should be anxiously engaged in a good cause, and do many things of their own free will, and bring to pass much righteousness;

D&C 58:28
For the power is in them, wherein they are agents unto themselves. And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as men do good they shall in nowise lose their reward.

D&C 58:36
And also, this is a law unto every man that cometh unto this land to receive an inheritance; and he shall do with his moneys according ass=hlgree>as the law directs.

D&C 58:37
And it is wisdom also that there should be lands purchased in Independence, for the place of the storehouse, and also for the house of the printing.

D&C 58:38
And other directions concerning my servant Martin Harris shall be given him of the Spirit, that he may receive his inheritance ass=hlgree>as seemeth him good;

D&C 58:41
And also he hath need to repent, for I, the Lord, am not well pleased with him, for he seeketh to excel, and he is not sufficiently meek before me.

D&C 58:42
Behold, he who hass=hlblue>as repented of his sins, the same is forgiven, and I, the Lord, remember them no more.

D&C 58:44
And now, verily, I say concerning the residue of the elders of my church, the time hass=hlblue>as not yet come, for many years, for them to receive their inheritance in this land, except they desire it through the prayer of faith, only ass=hlgree>as it shall be appointed unto them of the Lord.

D&C 58:46
Wherefore, ass=hlblue>assemble yourselves together; and they who are not appointed to stay in this land, let them preach the gospel in the regions round about; and after that let them return to their homes.

D&C 58:48
And let them build up churches, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as the inhabitants of the earth will repent.

D&C 58:49
And let there be an agent appointed by the voice of the church, unto the church in Ohio, to receive moneys to purchase lands in Zion.

D&C 58:50
And I give unto my servant Sidney Rigdon a commandment, that he shall write a description of the land of Zion, and a statement of the will of God, ass=hlgree>as it shall be made known by the Spirit unto him;

D&C 58:51
And an epistle and subscription, to be presented unto all the churches to obtain moneys, to be put into the hands of the bishop, of himself or the agent, ass=hlgree>as seemeth him good or ass=hlgree>as he shall direct, to purchase lands for an inheritance for the children of God.

D&C 58:52
For, behold, verily I say unto you, the Lord willeth that the disciples and the children of men should open their hearts, even to purchase this whole region of country, ass=hlgree>as soon ass=hlgree>as time will permit.

D&C 58:54
And again, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as there is land obtained, let there be workmen sent forth of all kinds unto this land, to labor for the saints of God.

D&C 58:56
And let the work of the gathering be not in haste, nor by flight; but let it be done ass=hlgree>as it shall be counseled by the elders of the church at the conferences, according to the knowledge which they receive from time to time.

D&C 58:58
And let a conference meeting be called; and after that let my servants Sidney Rigdon and Joseph Smith, Jun., return, and also Oliver Cowdery with them, to accomplish the residue of the work which I have appointed unto them in their own land, and the residue ass=hlgree>as shall be ruled by the conferences.

D&C 58:59
And let no man return from this land except he bear record by the way, of that which he knows and most ass=hlblue>assuredly believes.

D&C 58:60
Let that which hass=hlblue>as been bestowed upon Ziba Peterson be taken from him; and let him stand ass=hlgree>as a member in the church, and labor with his own hands, with the brethren, until he is sufficiently chastened for all his sins; for he confesseth them not, and he thinketh to hide them.

D&C 58:61
Let the residue of the elders of this church, who are coming to this land, some of whom are exceedingly blessed even above measure, also hold a conference upon this land.

D&C 59:6
Thou shalt love thy neighbor ass=hlgree>as thyself. Thou shalt not steal; neither commit adultery, nor kill, nor do anything like unto it.

D&C 59:13
And on this day thou shalt do none other thing, only let thy food be prepared with singleness of heart that thy fasting may be perfect, or, in other words, that thy joy may be full.

D&C 59:14
Verily, this is fasting and prayer, or in other words, rejoicing and prayer.

D&C 59:15
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye do these things with thanksgiving, with cheerful hearts and countenances, not with much laughter, for this is sin, but with a glad heart and a cheerful countenance--

D&C 59:16
Verily I say, that inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye do this, the fulness of the earth is yours, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, and that which climbeth upon the trees and walketh upon the earth;

D&C 59:18
Yea, all things which come of the earth, in the season thereof, are made for the benefit and the use of man, both to please the eye and to gladden the heart;

D&C 59:19
Yea, for food and for raiment, for taste and for smell, to strengthen the body and to enliven the soul.

D&C 59:20
And it pleaseth God that he hath given all these things unto man; for unto this end were they made to be used, with judgment, not to excess, neither by extortion.

D&C 60:1
Behold, thus saith the Lord unto the elders of his church, who are to return speedily to the land from whence they came: Behold, it pleaseth me, that you have come up hither;

D&C 60:2
But with some I am not well pleased, for they will not open their mouths, but they hide the talent which I have given unto them, because of the fear of man. Wo unto such, for mine anger is kindled against them.

D&C 60:3
And it shall come to pass, if they are not more faithful unto me, it shall be taken away, even that which they have.

D&C 60:5
But, verily, I will speak unto you concerning your journey unto the land from whence you came. Let there be a craft made, or bought, ass=hlgree>as seemeth you good, it mattereth not unto me, and take your journey speedily for the place which is called St. Louis.

D&C 60:8
And let the residue take their journey from St. Louis, two by two, and preach the word, not in haste, among the congregations of the wicked, until they return to the churches from whence they came.

D&C 60:14
And after thou hast come up unto the land of Zion, and hast proclaimed my word, thou shalt speedily return, proclaiming my word among the congregations of the wicked, not in haste, neither in wrath nor with strife.

D&C 60:15
And shake off the dust of thy feet against those who receive thee not, not in their presence, lest thou provoke them, but in secret; and wash thy feet, ass=hlgree>as a testimony against them in the day of judgment.

D&C 61:1
Behold, and hearken unto the voice of him who hass=hlblue>as all power, who is from everlasting to everlasting, even Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.

D&C 61:2
Behold, verily thus saith the Lord unto you, O ye elders of my church, who are ass=hlblue>assembled upon this spot, whose sins are now forgiven you, for I, the Lord, forgive sins, and am merciful unto those who confess their sins with humble hearts;

D&C 61:7
Wherefore, it is expedient that my servant Sidney Gilbert and my servant William W. Phelps be in haste upon their errand and mission.

D&C 61:8
Nevertheless, I would not suffer that ye should part until you were chastened for all your sins, that you might be one, that you might not perish in wickedness;

D&C 61:9
But now, verily I say, it behooveth me that ye should part. Wherefore let my servants Sidney Gilbert and William W. Phelps take their former company, and let them take their journey in haste that they may fill their mission, and through faith they shall overcome;

D&C 61:10
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are faithful they shall be preserved, and I, the Lord, will be with them.

D&C 61:12
Let my servant Sidney Gilbert take that which is not needful with him, ass=hlgree>as you shall agree.

D&C 61:13
And now, behold, for your good I gave unto you a commandment concerning these things; and I, the Lord, will reason with you ass=hlgree>as with men in days of old.

D&C 61:14
Behold, I, the Lord, in the beginning blessed the waters; but in the last days, by the mouth of my servant John, I cursed the waters.

D&C 61:17
And, ass=hlgree>as I, the Lord, in the beginning cursed the land, even so in the last days have I blessed it, in its time, for the use of my saints, that they may partake the fatness thereof.

D&C 61:20
I, the Lord, wass=hlblue>as angry with you yesterday, but today mine anger is turned away.

D&C 61:21
Wherefore, let those concerning whom I have spoken, that should take their journey in haste-- again I say unto you, let them take their journey in haste.

D&C 61:22
And it mattereth not unto me, after a little, if it so be that they fill their mission, whether they go by water or by land; let this be ass=hlgree>as it is made known unto them according to their judgments hereafter.

D&C 61:24
Behold, I, the Lord, have appointed a way for the journeying of my saints; and behold, this is the way-- that after they leave the canal they shall journey by land, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are commanded to journey and go up unto the land of Zion;

D&C 61:28
Wherefore, let him do ass=hlgree>as the Spirit of the living God commandeth him, whether upon the land or upon the waters, ass=hlgree>as it remaineth with me to do hereafter.

D&C 61:33
And now, concerning the residue, let them journey and declare the word among the congregations of the wicked, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as it is given;

D&C 61:34
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they do this they shall rid their garments, and they shall be spotless before me.

D&C 61:35
And let them journey together, or two by two, ass=hlgree>as seemeth them good, only let my servant Reynolds Cahoon, and my servant Samuel H. Smith, with whom I am well pleased, be not separated until they return to their homes, and this for a wise purpose in me.

D&C 61:37
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you have humbled yourselves before me, the blessings of the kingdom are yours.

D&C 62:2
And verily mine eyes are upon those who have not ass=hlgree>as yet gone up unto the land of Zion; wherefore your mission is not yet full.

D&C 62:4
And now continue your journey. ass=hlblue>Assemble yourselves upon the land of Zion; and hold a meeting and rejoice together, and offer a sacrament unto the Most High.

D&C 62:5
And then you may return to bear record, yea, even altogether, or two by two, ass=hlgree>as seemeth you good, it mattereth not unto me; only be faithful, and declare glad tidings unto the inhabitants of the earth, or among the congregations of the wicked.

D&C 63:4
Who buildeth up at his own will and pleasure; and destroyeth when he pleases, and is able to cast the soul down to hell.

D&C 63:6
Wherefore, verily I say, let the wicked take heed, and let the rebellious fear and tremble; and let the unbelieving hold their lips, for the day of wrath shall come upon them ass=hlgree>as a whirlwind, and all flesh shall know that I am God.

D&C 63:10
Yea, signs come by faith, not by the will of men, nor ass=hlgree>as they please, but by the will of God.

D&C 63:11
Yea, signs come by faith, unto mighty works, for without faith no man pleaseth God; and with whom God is angry he is not well pleased; wherefore, unto such he showeth no signs, only in wrath unto their condemnation.

D&C 63:12
Wherefore, I, the Lord, am not pleased with those among you who have sought after signs and wonders for faith, and not for the good of men unto my glory.

D&C 63:15
Let such beware and repent speedily, lest judgment shall come upon them ass=hlgree>as a snare, and their folly shall be made manifest, and their works shall follow them in the eyes of the people.

D&C 63:16
And verily I say unto you, ass=hlgree>as I have said before, he that looketh on a woman to lust after her, or if any shall commit adultery in their hearts, they shall not have the Spirit, but shall deny the faith and shall fear.

D&C 63:21
When the earth shall be transfigured, even according to the pattern which wass=hlblue>as shown unto mine apostles upon the mount; of which account the fulness ye have not yet received.

D&C 63:22
And now, verily I say unto you, that ass=hlgree>as I said that I would make known my will unto you, behold I will make it known unto you, not by the way of commandment, for there are many who observe not to keep my commandments.

D&C 63:23
But unto him that keepeth my commandments I will give the mysteries of my kingdom, and the same shall be in him a well of living water, springing up unto everlasting life.

D&C 63:24
And now, behold, this is the will of the Lord your God concerning his saints, that they should ass=hlblue>assemble themselves together unto the land of Zion, not in haste, lest there should be confusion, which bringeth pestilence.

D&C 63:27
Wherefore, I the Lord will that you should purchase the lands, that you may have advantage of the world, that you may have claim on the world, that they may not be stirred up unto anger.

D&C 63:29
Wherefore, the land of Zion shall not be obtained but by purchase or by blood, otherwise there is none inheritance for you.

D&C 63:30
And if by purchase, behold you are blessed;

D&C 63:31
And if by blood, ass=hlgree>as you are forbidden to shed blood, lo, your enemies are upon you, and ye shall be scourged from city to city, and from synagogue to synagogue, and but few shall stand to receive an inheritance.

D&C 63:36
Wherefore, seeing that I, the Lord, have decreed all these things upon the face of the earth, I will that my saints should be ass=hlblue>assembled upon the land of Zion;

D&C 63:39
Let my servant Titus Billings, who hass=hlblue>as the care thereof, dispose of the land, that he may be prepared in the coming spring to take his journey up unto the land of Zion, with those that dwell upon the face thereof, excepting those whom I shall reserve unto myself, that shall not go until I shall command them.

D&C 63:42
Let my servant Newel K. Whitney retain his store, or in other words, the store, yet for a little season.

D&C 63:45
Verily I say, let him be ordained ass=hlgree>as an agent unto the disciples that shall tarry, and let him be ordained unto this power;

D&C 63:46
And now speedily visit the churches, expounding these things unto them, with my servant Oliver Cowdery. Behold, this is my will, obtaining moneys even ass=hlgree>as I have directed.

D&C 63:48
He that sendeth up treasures unto the land of Zion shall receive an inheritance in this world, and his works shall follow him, and also a reward in the world to come.

D&C 63:49
Yea, and blessed are the dead that die in the Lord, from henceforth, when the Lord shall come, and old things shall pass away, and all things become new, they shall rise from the dead and shall not die after, and shall receive an inheritance before the Lord, in the holy city.

D&C 63:54
And until that hour there will be foolish virgins among the wise; and at that hour cometh an entire separation of the righteous and the wicked; and in that day will I send mine angels to pluck out the wicked and cast them into unquenchable fire.

D&C 63:55
And now behold, verily I say unto you, I, the Lord, am not pleased with my servant Sidney Rigdon; he exalted himself in his heart, and received not counsel, but grieved the Spirit;

D&C 63:58
For this is a day of warning, and not a day of many words. For I, the Lord, am not to be mocked in the last days.

D&C 63:65
Let my servants, Joseph Smith, Jun., and Sidney Rigdon, seek them a home, ass=hlgree>as they are taught through prayer by the Spirit.

D&C 64:2
For verily I say unto you, I will that ye should overcome the world; wherefore I will have compassion upon you.

D&C 64:5
And the keys of the mysteries of the kingdom shall not be taken from my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., through the means I have appointed, while he liveth, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he obeyeth mine ordinances.

D&C 64:6
There are those who have sought occasion against him without cause;

D&C 64:7
Nevertheless, he hass=hlblue>as sinned; but verily I say unto you, I, the Lord, forgive sins unto those who confess their sins before me and ass=hlblue>ask forgiveness, who have not sinned unto death.

D&C 64:8
My disciples, in days of old, sought occasion against one another and forgave not one another in their hearts; and for this evil they were afflicted and sorely chastened.

D&C 64:9
Wherefore, I say unto you, that ye ought to forgive one another; for he that forgiveth not his brother his trespasses standeth condemned before the Lord; for there remaineth in him the greater sin.

D&C 64:12
And him that repenteth not of his sins, and confesseth them not, ye shall bring before the church, and do with him ass=hlgree>as the scripture saith unto you, either by commandment or by revelation.

D&C 64:13
And this ye shall do that God may be glorified-- not because ye forgive not, having not compassion, but that ye may be justified in the eyes of the law, that ye may not offend him who is your lawgiver--

D&C 64:15
Behold, I, the Lord, wass=hlblue>as angry with him who wass=hlblue>as my servant Ezra Booth, and also my servant Isaac Morley, for they kept not the law, neither the commandment;

D&C 64:16
They sought evil in their hearts, and I, the Lord, withheld my Spirit. They condemned for evil that thing in which there wass=hlblue>as no evil; nevertheless I have forgiven my servant Isaac Morley.

D&C 64:24
For after today cometh the burning-- this is speaking after the manner of the Lord-- for verily I say, tomorrow all the proud and they that do wickedly shall be ass=hlgree>as stubble; and I will burn them up, for I am the Lord of Hosts; and I will not spare any that remain in Babylon.

D&C 64:28
But behold, it is not said at any time that the Lord should not take when he please, and pay ass=hlgree>as seemeth him good.

D&C 64:29
Wherefore, ass=hlgree>as ye are agents, ye are on the Lord's errand; and whatever ye do according to the will of the Lord is the Lord's business.

D&C 64:30
And he hath set you to provide for his saints in these last days, that they may obtain an inheritance in the land of Zion.

D&C 64:32
But all things must come to pass in their time.

D&C 64:34
Behold, the Lord requireth the heart and a willing mind; and the willing and obedient shall eat the good of the land of Zion in these last days.

D&C 64:37
Behold, I, the Lord, have made my church in these last days like unto a judge sitting on a hill, or in a high place, to judge the nations.

D&C 64:38
For it shall come to pass that the inhabitants of Zion shall judge all things pertaining to Zion.

D&C 65:1
Hearken, and lo, a voice ass=hlgree>as of one sent down from on high, who is mighty and powerful, whose going forth is unto the ends of the earth, yea, whose voice is unto men-- Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.

D&C 65:2
The keys of the kingdom of God are committed unto man on the earth, and from thence shall the gospel roll forth unto the ends of the earth, ass=hlgree>as the stone which is cut out of the mountain without hands shall roll forth, until it hass=hlblue>as filled the whole earth.

D&C 66:1
Behold, thus saith the Lord unto my servant William E. McLellin-- Blessed are you, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you have turned away from your iniquities, and have received my truths, saith the Lord your Redeemer, the Savior of the world, even of ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as believe on my name.

D&C 66:2
Verily I say unto you, blessed are you for receiving mine everlasting covenant, even the fulness of my gospel, sent forth unto the children of men, that they might have life and be made partakers of the glories which are to be revealed in the last days, ass=hlgree>as it wass=hlblue>as written by the prophets and apostles in days of old.

D&C 66:3
Verily I say unto you, my servant William, that you are clean, but not all; repent, therefore, of those things which are not pleasing in my sight, saith the Lord, for the Lord will show them unto you.

D&C 66:5
Behold, verily I say unto you, that it is my will that you should proclaim my gospel from land to land, and from city to city, yea, in those regions round about where it hass=hlblue>as not been proclaimed.

D&C 66:6
Tarry not many days in this place; go not up unto the land of Zion ass=hlgree>as yet; but inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you can send, send; otherwise, think not of thy property.

D&C 66:7
Go unto the eastern lands, bear testimony in every place, unto every people and in their synagogues, reasoning with the people.

D&C 66:9
Lay your hands upon the sick, and they shall recover. Return not till I, the Lord, shall send you. Be patient in affliction. ass=hlblue>Ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

D&C 66:10
Seek not to be cumbered. Forsake all unrighteousness. Commit not adultery-- a temptation with which thou hast been troubled.

D&C 66:11
Keep these sayings, for they are true and faithful; and thou shalt magnify thine office, and push many people to Zion with songs of everlasting joy upon their heads.

D&C 67:1
Behold and hearken, O ye elders of my church, who have ass=hlblue>assembled yourselves together, whose prayers I have heard, and whose hearts I know, and whose desires have come up before me.

D&C 67:3
Ye endeavored to believe that ye should receive the blessing which wass=hlblue>as offered unto you; but behold, verily I say unto you there were fears in your hearts, and verily this is the reason that ye did not receive.

D&C 67:6
Now, seek ye out of the Book of Commandments, even the least that is among them, and appoint him that is the most wise among you;

D&C 67:10
And again, verily I say unto you that it is your privilege, and a promise I give unto you that have been ordained unto this ministry, that inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you strip yourselves from jealousies and fears, and humble yourselves before me, for ye are not sufficiently humble, the veil shall be rent and you shall see me and know that I am-- not with the carnal neither natural mind, but with the spiritual.

D&C 67:11
For no man hass=hlblue>as seen God at any time in the flesh, except quickened by the Spirit of God.

D&C 67:14
Let not your minds turn back; and when ye are worthy, in mine own due time, ye shall see and know that which wass=hlblue>as conferred upon you by the hands of my servant Joseph Smith, Jun. Amen.

D&C 68:1
My servant, Orson Hyde, wass=hlblue>as called by his ordination to proclaim the everlasting gospel, by the Spirit of the living God, from people to people, and from land to land, in the congregations of the wicked, in their synagogues, reasoning with and expounding all scriptures unto them.

D&C 68:3
And this is the ensample unto them, that they shall speak ass=hlgree>as they are moved upon by the Holy Ghost.

D&C 68:6
Wherefore, be of good cheer, and do not fear, for I the Lord am with you, and will stand by you; and ye shall bear record of me, even Jesus Christ, that I am the Son of the living God, that I wass=hlblue>as, that I am, and that I am to come.

D&C 68:10
And he that believeth shall be blest with signs following, even ass=hlgree>as it is written.

D&C 68:12
And of ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as the Father shall bear record, to you shall be given power to seal them up unto eternal life. Amen.

D&C 68:18
No man hass=hlblue>as a legal right to this office, to hold the keys of this priesthood, except he be a literal descendant and the firstborn of Aaron.

D&C 68:19
But, ass=hlgree>as a high priest of the Melchizedek Priesthood hass=hlblue>as authority to officiate in all the lesser offices he may officiate in the office of bishop when no literal descendant of Aaron can be found, provided he is called and set apart and ordained unto this power, under the hands of the First Presidency of the Melchizedek Priesthood.

D&C 68:21
But, by virtue of the decree concerning their right of the priesthood descending from father to son, they may claim their anointing if at any time they can prove their lineage, or do ass=hlblue>ascertain it by revelation from the Lord under the hands of the above named Presidency.

D&C 68:23
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he is found guilty before this Presidency, by testimony that cannot be impeached, he shall be condemned;

D&C 68:25
And again, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as parents have children in Zion, or in any of her stakes which are organized, that teach them not to understand the doctrine of repentance, faith in Christ the Son of the living God, and of baptism and the gift of the Holy Ghost by the laying on of the hands, when eight years old, the sin be upon the heads of the parents.

D&C 68:30
And the inhabitants of Zion also shall remember their labors, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are appointed to labor, in all faithfulness; for the idler shall be had in remembrance before the Lord.

D&C 68:31
Now, I, the Lord, am not well pleased with the inhabitants of Zion, for there are idlers among them; and their children are also growing up in wickedness; they also seek not earnestly the riches of eternity, but their eyes are full of greediness.

D&C 68:33
And a commandment I give unto them-- that he that observeth not his prayers before the Lord in the season thereof, let him be had in remembrance before the judge of my people.

D&C 69:4
And also that he receive counsel and ass=hlblue>assistance from my servant Oliver Cowdery and others.

D&C 69:7
Nevertheless, let my servant John Whitmer travel many times from place to place, and from church to church, that he may the more easily obtain knowledge--

D&C 70:7
Nevertheless, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they receive more than is needful for their necessities and their wants, it shall be given into my storehouse;

D&C 70:8
And the benefits shall be consecrated unto the inhabitants of Zion, and unto their generations, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they become heirs according to the laws of the kingdom.

D&C 70:9
Behold, this is what the Lord requires of every man in his stewardship, even ass=hlgree>as I, the Lord, have appointed or shall hereafter appoint unto any man.

D&C 70:12
He who is appointed to administer spiritual things, the same is worthy of his hire, even ass=hlgree>as those who are appointed to a stewardship to administer in temporal things;

D&C 70:17
For they have been faithful over many things, and have done well inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they have not sinned.

D&C 71:1
Behold, thus saith the Lord unto you my servants Joseph Smith, Jun., and Sidney Rigdon, that the time hass=hlblue>as verily come that it is necessary and expedient in me that you should open your mouths in proclaiming my gospel, the things of the kingdom, expounding the mysteries thereof out of the scriptures, according to that portion of Spirit and power which shall be given unto you, even ass=hlgree>as I will.

D&C 71:2
Verily I say unto you, proclaim unto the world in the regions round about, and in the church also, for the space of a season, even until it shall be made known unto you.

D&C 71:3
Verily this is a mission for a season, which I give unto you.

D&C 71:7
Wherefore, confound your enemies; call upon them to meet you both in public and in private; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye are faithful their shame shall be made manifest.

D&C 71:8
Wherefore, let them bring forth their strong reasons against the Lord.

D&C 72:1
Hearken, and listen to the voice of the Lord, O ye who have ass=hlblue>assembled yourselves together, who are the high priests of my church, to whom the kingdom and power have been given.

D&C 72:9
The word of the Lord, in addition to the law which hass=hlblue>as been given, making known the duty of the bishop who hass=hlblue>as been ordained unto the church in this part of the vineyard, which is verily this--

D&C 72:11
To take an account of the elders ass=hlgree>as before hass=hlblue>as been commanded; and to administer to their wants, who shall pay for that which they receive, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they have wherewith to pay;

D&C 72:16
And now, verily I say unto you, that ass=hlgree>as every elder in this part of the vineyard must give an account of his stewardship unto the bishop in this part of the vineyard--

D&C 72:17
A certificate from the judge or bishop in this part of the vineyard, unto the bishop in Zion, rendereth every man acceptable, and answereth all things, for an inheritance, and to be received ass=hlgree>as a wise steward and ass=hlgree>as a faithful laborer;

D&C 72:20
And again, let my servants who are appointed ass=hlgree>as stewards over the literary concerns of my church have claim for ass=hlblue>assistance upon the bishop or bishops in all things--

D&C 72:22
That they also may render themselves approved in all things, and be accounted ass=hlgree>as wise stewards.

D&C 72:26
Otherwise he who shall go up unto the land of Zion shall not be accounted ass=hlgree>as a wise steward. This is also an ensample. Amen.

D&C 73:4
And, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as it is practicable, to preach in the regions round about until conference; and after that it is expedient to continue the work of translation until it be finished.

D&C 73:5
And let this be a pattern unto the elders until further knowledge, even ass=hlgree>as it is written.

D&C 74:2
Now, in the days of the apostles the law of circumcision wass=hlblue>as had among all the Jews who believed not the gospel of Jesus Christ.

D&C 74:3
And it came to pass that there arose a great contention among the people concerning the law of circumcision, for the unbelieving husband wass=hlblue>as desirous that his children should be circumcised and become subject to the law of Moses, which law wass=hlblue>as fulfilled.

D&C 74:4
And it came to pass that the children, being brought up in subjection to the law of Moses, gave heed to the traditions of their fathers and believed not the gospel of Christ, wherein they became unholy.

D&C 74:6
That their children might remain without circumcision; and that the tradition might be done away, which saith that little children are unholy; for it wass=hlblue>as had among the Jews;

D&C 75:4
Lifting up your voices ass=hlgree>as with the sound of a trump, proclaiming the truth according to the revelations and commandments which I have given you.

D&C 75:6
Therefore, verily I say unto my servant William E. McLellin, I revoke the commission which I gave unto him to go unto the eastern countries;

D&C 75:7
And I give unto him a new commission and a new commandment, in the which I, the Lord, chasten him for the murmurings of his heart;

D&C 75:11
Praying always that they faint not; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they do this, I will be with them even unto the end.

D&C 75:13
And again, verily thus saith the Lord, let my servant Orson Hyde and my servant Samuel H. Smith take their journey into the eastern countries, and proclaim the things which I have commanded them; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are faithful, lo, I will be with them even unto the end.

D&C 75:14
And again, verily I say unto my servant Lyman Johnson, and unto my servant Orson Pratt, they shall also take their journey into the eastern countries; and behold, and lo, I am with them also, even unto the end.

D&C 75:15
And again, I say unto my servant ass=hlblue>Asa Dodds, and unto my servant Calves Wilson, that they also shall take their journey unto the western countries, and proclaim my gospel, even ass=hlgree>as I have commanded them.

D&C 75:16
And he who is faithful shall overcome all things, and shall be lifted up at the last day.

D&C 75:17
And again, I say unto my servant Major N. ass=hlblue>Ashley, and my servant Burr Riggs, let them take their journey also into the south country.

D&C 75:18
Yea, let all those take their journey, ass=hlgree>as I have commanded them, going from house to house, and from village to village, and from city to city.

D&C 75:20
And in whatsoever house ye enter, and they receive you not, ye shall depart speedily from that house, and shake off the dust of your feet ass=hlgree>as a testimony against them.

D&C 75:22
And it shall be more tolerable for the heathen in the day of judgment, than for that house; therefore, gird up your loins and be faithful, and ye shall overcome all things, and be lifted up at the last day. Even so. Amen.

D&C 75:24
Behold, I say unto you, that it is the duty of the church to ass=hlblue>assist in supporting the families of those, and also to support the families of those who are called and must needs be sent unto the world to proclaim the gospel unto the world.

D&C 75:25
Wherefore, I, the Lord, give unto you this commandment, that ye obtain places for your families, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as your brethren are willing to open their hearts.

D&C 75:26
And let all such ass=hlgree>as can obtain places for their families, and support of the church for them, not fail to go into the world, whether to the east or to the west, or to the north, or to the south.

D&C 75:27
Let them ass=hlblue>ask and they shall receive, knock and it shall be opened unto them, and be made known from on high, even by the Comforter, whither they shall go.

D&C 75:31
And also my servant Ezra Thayre and my servant Thomass=hlblue>as B. Marsh;

D&C 76:7
And to them will I reveal all mysteries, yea, all the hidden mysteries of my kingdom from days of old, and for ages to come, will I make known unto them the good pleasure of my will concerning all things pertaining to my kingdom.

D&C 76:10
For by my Spirit will I enlighten them, and by my power will I make known unto them the secrets of my will-- yea, even those things which eye hass=hlblue>as not seen, nor ear heard, nor yet entered into the heart of man.

D&C 76:12
By the power of the Spirit our eyes were opened and our understandings were enlightened, so ass=hlgree>as to see and understand the things of God--

D&C 76:13
Even those things which were from the beginning before the world wass=hlblue>as, which were ordained of the Father, through his Only Begotten Son, who wass=hlblue>as in the bosom of the Father, even from the beginning;

D&C 76:15
For while we were doing the work of translation, which the Lord had appointed unto us, we came to the twenty-ninth verse of the fifth chapter of John, which wass=hlblue>as given unto us ass=hlgree>as follows--

D&C 76:18
Now this caused us to marvel, for it wass=hlblue>as given unto us of the Spirit.

D&C 76:22
And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of him: That he lives!

D&C 76:25
And this we saw also, and bear record, that an angel of God who wass=hlblue>as in authority in the presence of God, who rebelled against the Only Begotten Son whom the Father loved and who wass=hlblue>as in the bosom of the Father, wass=hlblue>as thrust down from the presence of God and the Son,

D&C 76:26
And wass=hlblue>as called Perdition, for the heavens wept over him-- he wass=hlblue>as Lucifer, a son of the morning.

D&C 76:29
Wherefore, he maketh war with the saints of God, and encompasseth them round about.

D&C 76:39
For all the rest shall be brought forth by the resurrection of the dead, through the triumph and the glory of the Lamb, who wass=hlblue>as slain, who wass=hlblue>as in the bosom of the Father before the worlds were made.

D&C 76:43
Who glorifies the Father, and saves all the works of his hands, except those sons of perdition who deny the Son after the Father hass=hlblue>as revealed him.

D&C 76:44
Wherefore, he saves all except them-- they shall go away into everlasting punishment, which is endless punishment, which is eternal punishment, to reign with the devil and his angels in eternity, where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched, which is their torment--

D&C 76:46
Neither wass=hlblue>as it revealed, neither is, neither will be revealed unto man, except to them who are made partakers thereof;

D&C 76:51
They are they who received the testimony of Jesus, and believed on his name and were baptized after the manner of his burial, being buried in the water in his name, and this according to the commandment which he hass=hlblue>as given--

D&C 76:52
That by keeping the commandments they might be washed and cleansed from all their sins, and receive the Holy Spirit by the laying on of the hands of him who is ordained and sealed unto this power;

D&C 76:55
They are they into whose hands the Father hass=hlblue>as given all things--

D&C 76:57
And are priests of the Most High, after the order of Melchizedek, which wass=hlblue>as after the order of Enoch, which wass=hlblue>as after the order of the Only Begotten Son.

D&C 76:58
Wherefore, ass=hlgree>as it is written, they are gods, even the sons of God--

D&C 76:67
These are they who have come to an innumerable company of angels, to the general ass=hlblue>assembly and church of Enoch, and of the Firstborn.

D&C 76:70
These are they whose bodies are celestial, whose glory is that of the sun, even the glory of God, the highest of all, whose glory the sun of the firmament is written of ass=hlgree>as being typical.

D&C 76:71
And again, we saw the terrestrial world, and behold and lo, these are they who are of the terrestrial, whose glory differs from that of the church of the Firstborn who have received the fulness of the Father, even ass=hlgree>as that of the moon differs from the sun in the firmament.

D&C 76:78
Wherefore, they are bodies terrestrial, and not bodies celestial, and differ in glory ass=hlgree>as the moon differs from the sun.

D&C 76:81
And again, we saw the glory of the telestial, which glory is that of the lesser, even ass=hlgree>as the glory of the stars differs from that of the glory of the moon in the firmament.

D&C 76:85
These are they who shall not be redeemed from the devil until the last resurrection, until the Lord, even Christ the Lamb, shall have finished his work.

D&C 76:89
And thus we saw, in the heavenly vision, the glory of the telestial, which surpasses all understanding;

D&C 76:90
And no man knows it except him to whom God hass=hlblue>as revealed it.

D&C 76:94
They who dwell in his presence are the church of the Firstborn; and they see ass=hlgree>as they are seen, and know ass=hlgree>as they are known, having received of his fulness and of his grace;

D&C 76:96
And the glory of the celestial is one, even ass=hlgree>as the glory of the sun is one.

D&C 76:97
And the glory of the terrestrial is one, even ass=hlgree>as the glory of the moon is one.

D&C 76:98
And the glory of the telestial is one, even ass=hlgree>as the glory of the stars is one; for ass=hlgree>as one star differs from another star in glory, even so differs one from another in glory in the telestial world;

D&C 76:99
For these are they who are of Paul, and of Apollos, and of Cephass=hlblue>as.

D&C 76:100
These are they who say they are some of one and some of another-- some of Christ and some of John, and some of Moses, and some of Eliass=hlblue>as, and some of Esaiass=hlblue>as, and some of Isaiah, and some of Enoch;

D&C 76:101
But received not the gospel, neither the testimony of Jesus, neither the prophets, neither the everlasting covenant.

D&C 76:102
Last of all, these all are they who will not be gathered with the saints, to be caught up unto the church of the Firstborn, and received into the cloud.

D&C 76:106
These are they who are cast down to hell and suffer the wrath of Almighty God, until the fulness of times, when Christ shall have subdued all enemies under his feet, and shall have perfected his work;

D&C 76:109
But behold, and lo, we saw the glory and the inhabitants of the telestial world, that they were ass=hlgree>as innumerable ass=hlgree>as the stars in the firmament of heaven, or ass=hlgree>as the sand upon the seashore;

D&C 76:114
But great and marvelous are the works of the Lord, and the mysteries of his kingdom which he showed unto us, which surpass all understanding in glory, and in might, and in dominion;

D&C 77:1

A. It is the earth, in its sanctified, immortal, and eternal state.

D&C 77:2
Q. What are we to understand by the four beasts, spoken of in the same verse?

A. They are figurative expressions, used by the Revelator, John, in describing heaven, the paradise of God, the happiness of man, and of beasts, and of creeping things, and of the fowls of the air; that which is spiritual being in the likeness of that which is temporal; and that which is temporal in the likeness of that which is spiritual; the spirit of man in the likeness of his person, ass=hlgree>as also the spirit of the beast, and every other creature which God hass=hlblue>as created.

D&C 77:3
Q. Are the four beasts limited to individual beasts, or do they represent classes or orders?

A. They are limited to four individual beasts, which were shown to John, to represent the glory of the classes of beings in their destined order or sphere of creation, in the enjoyment of their eternal felicity.

D&C 77:4
Q. What are we to understand by the eyes and wings, which the beasts had?

A. Their eyes are a representation of light and knowledge, that is, they are full of knowledge; and their wings are a representation of power, to move, to act, etc.

D&C 77:6
Q. What are we to understand by the book which John saw, which wass=hlblue>as sealed on the back with seven seals?

A. We are to understand that they are four angels sent forth from God, to whom is given power over the four parts of the earth, to save life and to destroy; these are they who have the everlasting gospel to commit to every nation, kindred, tongue, and people; having power to shut up the heavens, to seal up unto life, or to cast down to the regions of darkness.

D&C 77:9
Q. What are we to understand by the angel ass=hlblue>ascending from the east, Revelation 7th chapter and 2nd verse?

A. We are to understand that the angel ass=hlblue>ascending from the east is he to whom is given the seal of the living God over the twelve tribes of Israel; wherefore, he crieth unto the four angels having the everlasting gospel, saying: Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. And, if you will receive it, this is Eliass=hlblue>as which wass=hlblue>as to come to gather together the tribes of Israel and restore all things.

D&C 77:11
Q. What are we to understand by sealing the one hundred and forty-four thousand, out of all the tribes of Israel-- twelve thousand out of every tribe?

A. We are to understand that those who are sealed are high priests, ordained unto the holy order of God, to administer the everlasting gospel; for they are they who are ordained out of every nation, kindred, tongue, and people, by the angels to whom is given power over the nations of the earth, to bring ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as will come to the church of the Firstborn.

D&C 77:12
Q. What are we to understand by the sounding of the trumpets, mentioned in the 8th chapter of Revelation?

A. We are to understand that ass=hlgree>as God made the world in six days, and on the seventh day he finished his work, and sanctified it, and also formed man out of the dust of the earth, even so, in the beginning of the seventh thousand years will the Lord God sanctify the earth, and complete the salvation of man, and judge all things, and shall redeem all things, except that which he hath not put into his power, when he shall have sealed all things, unto the end of all things; and the sounding of the trumpets of the seven angels are the preparing and finishing of his work, in the beginning of the seventh thousand years-- the preparing of the way before the time of his coming.

D&C 77:14
Q. What are we to understand by the little book which wass=hlblue>as eaten by John, ass=hlgree>as mentioned in the 10th chapter of Revelation?

D&C 77:15
Q. What is to be understood by the two witnesses, in the eleventh chapter of Revelation?

A. They are two prophets that are to be raised up to the Jewish nation in the last days, at the time of the restoration, and to prophesy to the Jews after they are gathered and have built the city of Jerusalem in the land of their fathers.

D&C 78:1
The Lord spake unto Joseph Smith, Jun., saying: Hearken unto me, saith the Lord your God, who are ordained unto the high priesthood of my church, who have ass=hlblue>assembled yourselves together;

D&C 78:2
And listen to the counsel of him who hass=hlblue>as ordained you from on high, who shall speak in your ears the words of wisdom, that salvation may be unto you in that thing which you have presented before me, saith the Lord God.

D&C 78:3
For verily I say unto you, the time hass=hlblue>as come, and is now at hand; and behold, and lo, it must needs be that there be an organization of my people, in regulating and establishing the affairs of the storehouse for the poor of my people, both in this place and in the land of Zion--

D&C 78:4
For a permanent and everlasting establishment and order unto my church, to advance the cause, which ye have espoused, to the salvation of man, and to the glory of your Father who is in heaven;

D&C 78:11
Wherefore, a commandment I give unto you, to prepare and organize yourselves by a bond or everlasting covenant that cannot be broken.

D&C 78:17
Verily, verily, I say unto you, ye are little children, and ye have not ass=hlgree>as yet understood how great blessings the Father hath in his own hands and prepared for you;

D&C 79:1
Verily I say unto you, that it is my will that my servant Jared Carter should go again into the eastern countries, from place to place, and from city to city, in the power of the ordination wherewith he hass=hlblue>as been ordained, proclaiming glad tidings of great joy, even the everlasting gospel.

D&C 79:3
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he is faithful, I will crown him again with sheaves.

D&C 80:2
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you desire a companion, I will give unto you my servant Eden Smith.

D&C 80:3
Wherefore, go ye and preach my gospel, whether to the north or to the south, to the east or to the west, it mattereth not, for ye cannot go amiss.

D&C 81:3
Therefore, verily I acknowledge him and will bless him, and also thee, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as thou art faithful in counsel, in the office which I have appointed unto you, in prayer always, vocally and in thy heart, in public and in private, also in thy ministry in proclaiming the gospel in the land of the living, and among thy brethren.

D&C 82:1
Verily, verily, I say unto you, my servants, that inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you have forgiven one another your trespasses, even so I, the Lord, forgive you.

D&C 82:4
Ye call upon my name for revelations, and I give them unto you; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye keep not my sayings, which I give unto you, ye become transgressors; and justice and judgment are the penalty which is affixed unto my law.

D&C 82:14
For Zion must increase in beauty, and in holiness; her borders must be enlarged; her stakes must be strengthened; yea, verily I say unto you, Zion must arise and put on her beautiful garments.

D&C 82:17
And you are to be equal, or in other words, you are to have equal claims on the properties, for the benefit of managing the concerns of your stewardships, every man according to his wants and his needs, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as his wants are just--

D&C 82:18
And all this for the benefit of the church of the living God, that every man may improve upon his talent, that every man may gain other talents, yea, even an hundred fold, to be cast into the Lord's storehouse, to become the common property of the whole church--

D&C 82:20
This order I have appointed to be an everlasting order unto you, and unto your successors, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you sin not.

D&C 82:24
For even yet the kingdom is yours, and shall be forever, if you fall not from your steadfastness. Even so. Amen.

D&C 83:6
And the storehouse shall be kept by the consecrations of the church; and widows and orphans shall be provided for, ass=hlgree>as also the poor. Amen.

D&C 84:1
A revelation of Jesus Christ unto his servant Joseph Smith, Jun., and six elders, ass=hlgree>as they united their hearts and lifted their voices on high.

D&C 84:2
Yea, the word of the Lord concerning his church, established in the last days for the restoration of his people, ass=hlgree>as he hass=hlblue>as spoken by the mouth of his prophets, and for the gathering of his saints to stand upon Mount Zion, which shall be the city of New Jerusalem.

D&C 84:3
Which city shall be built, beginning at the temple lot, which is appointed by the finger of the Lord, in the western boundaries of the State of Missouri, and dedicated by the hand of Joseph Smith, Jun., and others with whom the Lord wass=hlblue>as well pleased.

D&C 84:5
For verily this generation shall not all pass away until an house shall be built unto the Lord, and a cloud shall rest upon it, which cloud shall be even the glory of the Lord, which shall fill the house.

D&C 84:11
And Gad under the hand of Esaiass=hlblue>as;

D&C 84:12
And Esaiass=hlblue>as received it under the hand of God.

D&C 84:13
Esaiass=hlblue>as also lived in the days of Abraham, and wass=hlblue>as blessed of him--

D&C 84:16
And from Enoch to Abel, who wass=hlblue>as slain by the conspiracy of his brother, who received the priesthood by the commandments of God, by the hand of his father Adam, who wass=hlblue>as the first man--

D&C 84:24
But they hardened their hearts and could not endure his presence; therefore, the Lord in his wrath, for his anger wass=hlblue>as kindled against them, swore that they should not enter into his rest while in the wilderness, which rest is the fulness of his glory.

D&C 84:28
For he wass=hlblue>as baptized while he wass=hlblue>as yet in his childhood, and wass=hlblue>as ordained by the angel of God at the time he wass=hlblue>as eight days old unto this power, to overthrow the kingdom of the Jews, and to make straight the way of the Lord before the face of his people, to prepare them for the coming of the Lord, in whose hand is given all power.

D&C 84:30
And again, the offices of teacher and deacon are necessary appendages belonging to the lesser priesthood, which priesthood wass=hlblue>as confirmed upon Aaron and his sons.

D&C 84:31
Therefore, ass=hlgree>as I said concerning the sons of Moses-- for the sons of Moses and also the sons of Aaron shall offer an acceptable offering and sacrifice in the house of the Lord, which house shall be built unto the Lord in this generation, upon the consecrated spot ass=hlgree>as I have appointed--

D&C 84:48
And the Father teacheth him of the covenant which he hass=hlblue>as renewed and confirmed upon you, which is confirmed upon you for your sakes, and not for your sakes only, but for the sake of the whole world.

D&C 84:54
And your minds in times past have been darkened because of unbelief, and because you have treated lightly the things you have received--

D&C 84:60
Verily, verily, I say unto you who now hear my words, which are my voice, blessed are ye inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you receive these things;

D&C 84:61
For I will forgive you of your sins with this commandment-- that you remain steadfast in your minds in solemnity and the spirit of prayer, in bearing testimony to all the world of those things which are communicated unto you.

D&C 84:63
And ass=hlgree>as I said unto mine apostles, even so I say unto you, for you are mine apostles, even God's high priests; ye are they whom my Father hath given me; ye are my friends;

D&C 84:64
Therefore, ass=hlgree>as I said unto mine apostles I say unto you again, that every soul who believeth on your words, and is baptized by water for the remission of sins, shall receive the Holy Ghost.

D&C 84:67
In my name they shall cast out devils;

D&C 84:73
But a commandment I give unto them, that they shall not boast themselves of these things, neither speak them before the world; for these things are given unto you for your profit and for salvation.

D&C 84:76
But, verily I say unto all those to whom the kingdom hass=hlblue>as been given-- from you it must be preached unto them, that they shall repent of their former evil works; for they are to be upbraided for their evil hearts of unbelief, and your brethren in Zion for their rebellion against you at the time I sent you.

D&C 84:77
And again I say unto you, my friends, for from henceforth I shall call you friends, it is expedient that I give unto you this commandment, that ye become even ass=hlgree>as my friends in days when I wass=hlblue>as with them, traveling to preach the gospel in my power;

D&C 84:85
Neither take ye thought beforehand what ye shall say; but treasure up in your minds continually the words of life, and it shall be given you in the very hour that portion that shall be meted unto every man.

D&C 84:98
Until all shall know me, who remain, even from the least unto the greatest, and shall be filled with the knowledge of the Lord, and shall see eye to eye, and shall lift up their voice, and with the voice together sing this new song, saying:

D&C 84:99
The Lord hath brought again Zion; The Lord hath redeemed his people, Israel, According to the election of grace, Which wass=hlblue>as brought to pass by the faith And covenant of their fathers.

D&C 84:102
Glory, and honor, and power, and might, Be ass=hlblue>ascribed to our God; for he is full of mercy, Justice, grace and truth, and peace, Forever and ever, Amen.

D&C 84:103
And again, verily, verily, I say unto you, it is expedient that every man who goes forth to proclaim mine everlasting gospel, that inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they have families, and receive money by gift, that they should send it unto them or make use of it for their benefit, ass=hlgree>as the Lord shall direct them, for thus it seemeth me good.

D&C 84:105
And if any man shall give unto any of you a coat, or a suit, take the old and cast it unto the poor, and go on your way rejoicing.

D&C 84:113
He should also employ an agent to take charge and to do his secular business ass=hlgree>as he shall direct.

D&C 84:117
And verily I say unto you, the rest of my servants, go ye forth ass=hlgree>as your circumstances shall permit, in your several callings, unto the great and notable cities and villages, reproving the world in righteousness of all their unrighteous and ungodly deeds, setting forth clearly and understandingly the desolation of abomination in the last days.

D&C 85:1
It is the duty of the Lord's clerk, whom he hass=hlblue>as appointed, to keep a history, and a general church record of all things that transpire in Zion, and of all those who consecrate properties, and receive inheritances legally from the bishop;

D&C 85:3
It is contrary to the will and commandment of God that those who receive not their inheritance by consecration, agreeable to his law, which he hass=hlblue>as given, that he may tithe his people, to prepare them against the day of vengeance and burning, should have their names enrolled with the people of God.

D&C 85:7
And it shall come to pass that I, the Lord God, will send one mighty and strong, holding the scepter of power in his hand, clothed with light for a covering, whose mouth shall utter words, eternal words; while his bowels shall be a fountain of truth, to set in order the house of God, and to arrange by lot the inheritances of the saints whose names are found, and the names of their fathers, and of their children, enrolled in the book of the law of God;

D&C 85:8
While that man, who wass=hlblue>as called of God and appointed, that putteth forth his hand to steady the ark of God, shall fall by the shaft of death, like ass=hlgree>as a tree that is smitten by the vivid shaft of lightning.

D&C 85:9
And all they who are not found written in the book of remembrance shall find none inheritance in that day, but they shall be cut ass=hlblue>asunder, and their portion shall be appointed them among unbelievers, where are wailing and gnashing of teeth.

D&C 85:10
These things I say not of myself; therefore, ass=hlgree>as the Lord speaketh, he will also fulfil.

D&C 85:11
And they who are of the High Priesthood, whose names are not found written in the book of the law, or that are found to have apostatized, or to have been cut off from the church, ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as the lesser priesthood, or the members, in that day shall not find an inheritance among the saints of the Most High;

D&C 85:12
Therefore, it shall be done unto them ass=hlgree>as unto the children of the priest, ass=hlgree>as will be found recorded in the second chapter and sixty-first and second verses of Ezra.

D&C 86:2
Behold, verily I say, the field wass=hlblue>as the world, and the apostles were the sowers of the seed;

D&C 86:3
And after they have fallen ass=hlblue>asleep the great persecutor of the church, the apostate, the whore, even Babylon, that maketh all nations to drink of her cup, in whose hearts the enemy, even Satan, sitteth to reign-- behold he soweth the tares; wherefore, the tares choke the wheat and drive the church into the wilderness.

D&C 86:4
But behold, in the last days, even now while the Lord is beginning to bring forth the word, and the blade is springing up and is yet tender--

D&C 87:1
Verily, thus saith the Lord concerning the wars that will shortly come to pass, beginning at the rebellion of South Carolina, which will eventually terminate in the death and misery of many souls;

D&C 87:3
For behold, the Southern States shall be divided against the Northern States, and the Southern States will call on other nations, even the nation of Great Britain, ass=hlgree>as it is called, and they shall also call upon other nations, in order to defend themselves against other nations; and then war shall be poured out upon all nations.

D&C 87:4
And it shall come to pass, after many days, slaves shall rise up against their masters, who shall be marshaled and disciplined for war.

D&C 87:5
And it shall come to pass also that the remnants who are left of the land will marshal themselves, and shall become exceedingly angry, and shall vex the Gentiles with a sore vexation.

D&C 87:6
And thus, with the sword and by bloodshed the inhabitants of the earth shall mourn; and with famine, and plague, and earthquake, and the thunder of heaven, and the fierce and vivid lightning also, shall the inhabitants of the earth be made to feel the wrath, and indignation, and chastening hand of an Almighty God, until the consumption decreed hath made a full end of all nations;

D&C 87:7
That the cry of the saints, and of the blood of the saints, shall cease to come up into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth, from the earth, to be avenged of their enemies.

D&C 88:1
Verily, thus saith the Lord unto you who have ass=hlblue>assembled yourselves together to receive his will concerning you:

D&C 88:2
Behold, this is pleasing unto your Lord, and the angels rejoice over you; the alms of your prayers have come up into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth, and are recorded in the book of the names of the sanctified, even them of the celestial world.

D&C 88:3
Wherefore, I now send upon you another Comforter, even upon you my friends, that it may abide in your hearts, even the Holy Spirit of promise; which other Comforter is the same that I promised unto my disciples, ass=hlgree>as is recorded in the testimony of John.

D&C 88:6
He that ass=hlblue>ascended up on high, ass=hlgree>as also he descended below all things, in that he comprehended all things, that he might be in all and through all things, the light of truth;

D&C 88:7
Which truth shineth. This is the light of Christ. ass=hlgree>As also he is in the sun, and the light of the sun, and the power thereof by which it wass=hlblue>as made.

D&C 88:8
ass=hlgree>As also he is in the moon, and is the light of the moon, and the power thereof by which it wass=hlblue>as made;

D&C 88:9
ass=hlgree>As also the light of the stars, and the power thereof by which they were made;

D&C 88:14
Now, verily I say unto you, that through the redemption which is made for you is brought to pass the resurrection from the dead.

D&C 88:19
For after it hath filled the measure of its creation, it shall be crowned with glory, even with the presence of God the Father;

D&C 88:20
That bodies who are of the celestial kingdom may possess it forever and ever; for, for this intent wass=hlblue>as it made and created, and for this intent are they sanctified.

D&C 88:25
And again, verily I say unto you, the earth abideth the law of a celestial kingdom, for it filleth the measure of its creation, and transgresseth not the law--

D&C 88:28
They who are of a celestial spirit shall receive the same body which wass=hlblue>as a natural body; even ye shall receive your bodies, and your glory shall be that glory by which your bodies are quickened.

D&C 88:40
For intelligence cleaveth unto intelligence; wisdom receiveth wisdom; truth embraceth truth; virtue loveth virtue; light cleaveth unto light; mercy hath compassion on mercy and claimeth her own; justice continueth its course and claimeth its own; judgment goeth before the face of him who sitteth upon the throne and governeth and executeth all things.

D&C 88:42
And again, verily I say unto you, he hath given a law unto all things, by which they move in their times and their seasons;

D&C 88:44
And they give light to each other in their times and in their seasons, in their minutes, in their hours, in their days, in their weeks, in their months, in their years-- all these are one year with God, but not with man.

D&C 88:45
The earth rolls upon her wings, and the sun giveth his light by day, and the moon giveth her light by night, and the stars also give their light, ass=hlgree>as they roll upon their wings in their glory, in the midst of the power of God.

D&C 88:47
Behold, all these are kingdoms, and any man who hath seen any or the least of these hath seen God moving in his majesty and power.

D&C 88:48
I say unto you, he hath seen him; nevertheless, he who came unto his own wass=hlblue>as not comprehended.

D&C 88:56
And the lord of the field went unto the first in the first hour, and tarried with him all that hour, and he wass=hlblue>as made glad with the light of the countenance of his lord.

D&C 88:58
And thus they all received the light of the countenance of their lord, every man in his hour, and in his time, and in his season--

D&C 88:59
Beginning at the first, and so on unto the last, and from the last unto the first, and from the first unto the last;

D&C 88:60
Every man in his own order, until his hour wass=hlblue>as finished, even according ass=hlgree>as his lord had commanded him, that his lord might be glorified in him, and he in his lord, that they all might be glorified.

D&C 88:61
Therefore, unto this parable I will liken all these kingdoms, and the inhabitants thereof-- every kingdom in its hour, and in its time, and in its season, even according to the decree which God hath made.

D&C 88:63
Draw near unto me and I will draw near unto you; seek me diligently and ye shall find me; ass=hlblue>ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

D&C 88:64
Whatsoever ye ass=hlblue>ask the Father in my name it shall be given unto you, that is expedient for you;

D&C 88:65
And if ye ass=hlblue>ask anything that is not expedient for you, it shall turn unto your condemnation.

D&C 88:66
Behold, that which you hear is ass=hlgree>as the voice of one crying in the wilderness-- in the wilderness, because you cannot see him-- my voice, because my voice is Spirit; my Spirit is truth; truth abideth and hath no end; and if it be in you it shall abound.

D&C 88:69
Remember the great and last promise which I have made unto you; cast away your idle thoughts and your excess of laughter far from you.

D&C 88:70
Tarry ye, tarry ye in this place, and call a solemn ass=hlblue>assembly, even of those who are the first laborers in this last kingdom.

D&C 88:71
And let those whom they have warned in their traveling call on the Lord, and ponder the warning in their hearts which they have received, for a little season.

D&C 88:73
Behold, I will hasten my work in its time.

D&C 88:74
And I give unto you, who are the first laborers in this last kingdom, a commandment that you ass=hlblue>assemble yourselves together, and organize yourselves, and prepare yourselves, and sanctify yourselves; yea, purify your hearts, and cleanse your hands and your feet before me, that I may make you clean;

D&C 88:75
That I may testify unto your Father, and your God, and my God, that you are clean from the blood of this wicked generation; that I may fulfil this promise, this great and last promise, which I have made unto you, when I will.

D&C 88:76
Also, I give unto you a commandment that ye shall continue in prayer and fasting from this time forth.

D&C 88:79
Of things both in heaven and in the earth, and under the earth; things which have been, things which are, things which must shortly come to pass; things which are at home, things which are abroad; the wars and the perplexities of the nations, and the judgments which are on the land; and a knowledge also of countries and of kingdoms--

D&C 88:84
Therefore, tarry ye, and labor diligently, that you may be perfected in your ministry to go forth among the Gentiles for the last time, ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as the mouth of the Lord shall name, to bind up the law and seal up the testimony, and to prepare the saints for the hour of judgment which is to come;

D&C 88:87
For not many days hence and the earth shall tremble and reel to and fro ass=hlgree>as a drunken man; and the sun shall hide his face, and shall refuse to give light; and the moon shall be bathed in blood; and the stars shall become exceedingly angry, and shall cast themselves down ass=hlgree>as a fig that falleth from off a fig tree.

D&C 88:95
And there shall be silence in heaven for the space of half an hour; and immediately after shall the curtain of heaven be unfolded, ass=hlgree>as a scroll is unfolded after it is rolled up, and the face of the Lord shall be unveiled;

D&C 88:102
And another trump shall sound, which is the fourth trump, saying: There are found among those who are to remain until that great and last day, even the end, who shall remain filthy still.

D&C 88:103
And another trump shall sound, which is the fifth trump, which is the fifth angel who committeth the everlasting gospel-- flying through the midst of heaven, unto all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people;

D&C 88:111
And then he shall be loosed for a little season, that he may gather together his armies.

D&C 88:114
And then cometh the battle of the great God; and the devil and his armies shall be cast away into their own place, that they shall not have power over the saints any more at all.

D&C 88:117
Therefore, verily I say unto you, my friends, call your solemn ass=hlblue>assembly, ass=hlgree>as I have commanded you.

D&C 88:118
And ass=hlgree>as all have not faith, seek ye diligently and teach one another words of wisdom; yea, seek ye out of the best books words of wisdom; seek learning, even by study and also by faith.

D&C 88:119
Organize yourselves; prepare every needful thing; and establish a house, even a house of prayer, a house of fasting, a house of faith, a house of learning, a house of glory, a house of order, a house of God;

D&C 88:121
Therefore, cease from all your light speeches, from all laughter, from all your lustful desires, from all your pride and light-mindedness, and from all your wicked doings.

D&C 88:123
See that ye love one another; cease to be covetous; learn to impart one to another ass=hlgree>as the gospel requires.

D&C 88:124
Cease to be idle; cease to be unclean; cease to find fault one with another; cease to sleep longer than is needful; retire to thy bed early, that ye may not be weary; arise early, that your bodies and your minds may be invigorated.

D&C 88:125
And above all things, clothe yourselves with the bond of charity, ass=hlgree>as with a mantle, which is the bond of perfectness and peace.

D&C 88:131
Let him offer himself in prayer upon his knees before God, in token or remembrance of the everlasting covenant.

D&C 88:133
Art thou a brother or brethren? I salute you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, in token or remembrance of the everlasting covenant, in which covenant I receive you to fellowship, in a determination that is fixed, immovable, and unchangeable, to be your friend and brother through the grace of God in the bonds of love, to walk in all the commandments of God blameless, in thanksgiving, forever and ever. Amen.

D&C 88:137
And ye are called to do this by prayer and thanksgiving, ass=hlgree>as the Spirit shall give utterance in all your doings in the house of the Lord, in the school of the prophets, that it may become a sanctuary, a tabernacle of the Holy Spirit to your edification.

D&C 88:139
And he shall be received by the ordinance of the washing of feet, for unto this end wass=hlblue>as the ordinance of the washing of feet instituted.

D&C 88:140
And again, the ordinance of washing feet is to be administered by the president, or presiding elder of the church.

D&C 89:1
A Word of Wisdom, for the benefit of the council of high priests, ass=hlblue>assembled in Kirtland, and the church, and also the saints in Zion--

D&C 89:2
To be sent greeting; not by commandment or constraint, but by revelation and the word of wisdom, showing forth the order and will of God in the temporal salvation of all saints in the last days--

D&C 89:4
Behold, verily, thus saith the Lord unto you: In consequence of evils and designs which do and will exist in the hearts of conspiring men in the last days, I have warned you, and forewarn you, by giving unto you this word of wisdom by revelation--

D&C 89:5
That inasmuch ass=hlgree>as any man drinketh wine or strong drink among you, behold it is not good, neither meet in the sight of your Father, only in ass=hlblue>assembling yourselves together to offer up your sacraments before him.

D&C 89:7
And, again, strong drinks are not for the belly, but for the washing of your bodies.

D&C 89:11
Every herb in the season thereof, and every fruit in the season thereof; all these to be used with prudence and thanksgiving.

D&C 89:12
Yea, flesh also of beasts and of the fowls of the air, I, the Lord, have ordained for the use of man with thanksgiving; nevertheless they are to be used sparingly;

D&C 89:13
And it is pleasing unto me that they should not be used, only in times of winter, or of cold, or famine.

D&C 89:14
All grain is ordained for the use of man and of beasts, to be the staff of life, not only for man but for the beasts of the field, and the fowls of heaven, and all wild animals that run or creep on the earth;

D&C 89:16
All grain is good for the food of man; ass=hlgree>as also the fruit of the vine; that which yieldeth fruit, whether in the ground or above the ground--

D&C 89:17
Nevertheless, wheat for man, and corn for the ox, and oats for the horse, and rye for the fowls and for swine, and for all beasts of the field, and barley for all useful animals, and for mild drinks, ass=hlgree>as also other grain.

D&C 89:19
And shall find wisdom and great treasures of knowledge, even hidden treasures;

D&C 89:21
And I, the Lord, give unto them a promise, that the destroying angel shall pass by them, ass=hlgree>as the children of Israel, and not slay them. Amen.

D&C 90:2
Therefore, thou art blessed from henceforth that bear the keys of the kingdom given unto you; which kingdom is coming forth for the last time.

D&C 90:5
And all they who receive the oracles of God, let them beware how they hold them lest they are accounted ass=hlgree>as a light thing, and are brought under condemnation thereby, and stumble and fall when the storms descend, and the winds blow, and the rains descend, and beat upon their house.

D&C 90:6
And again, verily I say unto thy brethren, Sidney Rigdon and Frederick G. Williams, their sins are forgiven them also, and they are accounted ass=hlgree>as equal with thee in holding the keys of this last kingdom;

D&C 90:7
ass=hlgree>As also through your administration the keys of the school of the prophets, which I have commanded to be organized;

D&C 90:8
That thereby they may be perfected in their ministry for the salvation of Zion, and of the nations of Israel, and of the Gentiles, ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as will believe;

D&C 90:11
For it shall come to pass in that day, that every man shall hear the fulness of the gospel in his own tongue, and in his own language, through those who are ordained unto this power, by the administration of the Comforter, shed forth upon them for the revelation of Jesus Christ.

D&C 90:14
And from time to time, ass=hlgree>as shall be manifested by the Comforter, receive revelations to unfold the mysteries of the kingdom;

D&C 90:17
Be not ass=hlblue>ashamed, neither confounded; but be admonished in all your high-mindedness and pride, for it bringeth a snare upon your souls.

D&C 90:19
Now, verily I say unto you, let there be a place provided, ass=hlgree>as soon ass=hlgree>as it is possible, for the family of thy counselor and scribe, even Frederick G. Williams.

D&C 90:22
And let the bishop search diligently to obtain an agent, and let him be a man who hass=hlblue>as got riches in store-- a man of God, and of strong faith--

D&C 90:25
Let your families be small, especially mine aged servant Joseph Smith's, Sen., ass=hlgree>as pertaining to those who do not belong to your families;

D&C 90:26
That those things that are provided for you, to bring to pass my work, be not taken from you and given to those that are not worthy--

D&C 90:31
That she may settle down in peace inasmuch ass=hlgree>as she is faithful, and not be idle in her days from thenceforth.

D&C 90:33
Therefore, let them cease wearying me concerning this matter.

D&C 90:35
Nevertheless, I am not well pleased with many things; and I am not well pleased with my servant William E. McLellin, neither with my servant Sidney Gilbert; and the bishop also, and others have many things to repent of.

D&C 90:36
But verily I say unto you, that I, the Lord, will contend with Zion, and plead with her strong ones, and chasten her until she overcomes and is clean before me.

D&C 92:2
And again, I say unto you my servant Frederick G. Williams, you shall be a lively member in this order; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you are faithful in keeping all former commandments you shall be blessed forever. Amen.

D&C 93:1
Verily, thus saith the Lord: It shall come to pass that every soul who forsaketh his sins and cometh unto me, and calleth on my name, and obeyeth my voice, and keepeth my commandments, shall see my face and know that I am;

D&C 93:4
The Father because he gave me of his fulness, and the Son because I wass=hlblue>as in the world and made flesh my tabernacle, and dwelt among the sons of men.

D&C 93:5
I wass=hlblue>as in the world and received of my Father, and the works of him were plainly manifest.

D&C 93:7
And he bore record, saying: I saw his glory, that he wass=hlblue>as in the beginning, before the world wass=hlblue>as;

D&C 93:8
Therefore, in the beginning the Word wass=hlblue>as, for he wass=hlblue>as the Word, even the messenger of salvation--

D&C 93:9
The light and the Redeemer of the world; the Spirit of truth, who came into the world, because the world wass=hlblue>as made by him, and in him wass=hlblue>as the life of men and the light of men.

D&C 93:11
And I, John, bear record that I beheld his glory, ass=hlgree>as the glory of the Only Begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth, even the Spirit of truth, which came and dwelt in the flesh, and dwelt among us.

D&C 93:14
And thus he wass=hlblue>as called the Son of God, because he received not of the fulness at the first.

D&C 93:17
And he received all power, both in heaven and on earth, and the glory of the Father wass=hlblue>as with him, for he dwelt in him.

D&C 93:18
And it shall come to pass, that if you are faithful you shall receive the fulness of the record of John.

D&C 93:20
For if you keep my commandments you shall receive of his fulness, and be glorified in me ass=hlgree>as I am in the Father; therefore, I say unto you, you shall receive grace for grace.

D&C 93:21
And now, verily I say unto you, I wass=hlblue>as in the beginning with the Father, and am the Firstborn;

D&C 93:24
And truth is knowledge of things ass=hlgree>as they are, and ass=hlgree>as they were, and ass=hlgree>as they are to come;

D&C 93:25
And whatsoever is more or less than this is the spirit of that wicked one who wass=hlblue>as a liar from the beginning.

D&C 93:29
Man wass=hlblue>as also in the beginning with God. Intelligence, or the light of truth, wass=hlblue>as not created or made, neither indeed can be.

D&C 93:30
All truth is independent in that sphere in which God hass=hlblue>as placed it, to act for itself, ass=hlgree>as all intelligence also; otherwise there is no existence.

D&C 93:31
Behold, here is the agency of man, and here is the condemnation of man; because that which wass=hlblue>as from the beginning is plainly manifest unto them, and they receive not the light.

D&C 93:38
Every spirit of man wass=hlblue>as innocent in the beginning; and God having redeemed man from the fall, men became again, in their infant state, innocent before God.

D&C 93:42
You have not taught your children light and truth, according to the commandments; and that wicked one hath power, ass=hlgree>as yet, over you, and this is the cause of your affliction.

D&C 93:50
My servant Newel K. Whitney also, a bishop of my church, hath need to be chastened, and set in order his family, and see that they are more diligent and concerned at home, and pray always, or they shall be removed out of their place.

D&C 93:51
Now, I say unto you, my friends, let my servant Sidney Rigdon go on his journey, and make haste, and also proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the gospel of salvation, ass=hlgree>as I shall give him utterance; and by your prayer of faith with one consent I will uphold him.

D&C 93:52
And let my servants Joseph Smith, Jun., and Frederick G. Williams make haste also, and it shall be given them even according to the prayer of faith; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you keep my sayings you shall not be confounded in this world, nor in the world to come.

D&C 93:53
And, verily I say unto you, that it is my will that you should hasten to translate my scriptures, and to obtain a knowledge of history, and of countries, and of kingdoms, of laws of God and man, and all this for the salvation of Zion. Amen.

D&C 94:12
And this house shall be wholly dedicated unto the Lord from the foundation thereof, for the work of the printing, in all things whatsoever I shall command you, to be holy, undefiled, according to the pattern in all things ass=hlgree>as it shall be given unto you.

D&C 95:1
Verily, thus saith the Lord unto you whom I love, and whom I love I also chasten that their sins may be forgiven, for with the chastisement I prepare a way for their deliverance in all things out of temptation, and I have loved you--

D&C 95:2
Wherefore, ye must needs be chastened and stand rebuked before my face;

D&C 95:4
For the preparation wherewith I design to prepare mine apostles to prune my vineyard for the last time, that I may bring to pass my strange act, that I may pour out my Spirit upon all flesh--

D&C 95:7
And for this cause I gave unto you a commandment that you should call your solemn ass=hlblue>assembly, that your fastings and your mourning might come up into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth, which is by interpretation, the creator of the first day, the beginning and the end.

D&C 95:9
For this is the promise of the Father unto you; therefore I command you to tarry, even ass=hlgree>as mine apostles at Jerusalem.

D&C 95:10
Nevertheless, my servants sinned a very grievous sin; and contentions arose in the school of the prophets; which wass=hlblue>as very grievous unto me, saith your Lord; therefore I sent them forth to be chastened.

D&C 95:16
And let the lower part of the inner court be dedicated unto me for your sacrament offering, and for your preaching, and your fasting, and your praying, and the offering up of your most holy desires unto me, saith your Lord.

D&C 96:3
And again, let it be divided into lots, according to wisdom, for the benefit of those who seek inheritances, ass=hlgree>as it shall be determined in council among you.

D&C 96:6
And again, verily I say unto you, it is wisdom and expedient in me, that my servant John Johnson whose offering I have accepted, and whose prayers I have heard, unto whom I give a promise of eternal life inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he keepeth my commandments from henceforth--

D&C 96:8
Verily I say unto you, it is expedient in me that he should become a member of the order, that he may ass=hlblue>assist in bringing forth my word unto the children of men.

D&C 97:3
Behold, I say unto you, concerning the school in Zion, I, the Lord, am well pleased that there should be a school in Zion, and also with my servant Parley P. Pratt, for he abideth in me.

D&C 97:4
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he continueth to abide in me he shall continue to preside over the school in the land of Zion until I shall give unto him other commandments.

D&C 97:6
And to the residue of the school, I, the Lord, am willing to show mercy; nevertheless, there are those that must needs be chastened, and their works shall be made known.

D&C 97:7
The ax is laid at the root of the trees; and every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit shall be hewn down and cast into the fire. I, the Lord, have spoken it.

D&C 97:9
For I, the Lord, will cause them to bring forth ass=hlgree>as a very fruitful tree which is planted in a goodly land, by a pure stream, that yieldeth much precious fruit.

D&C 97:15
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as my people build a house unto me in the name of the Lord, and do not suffer any unclean thing to come into it, that it be not defiled, my glory shall rest upon it;

D&C 97:22
For behold, and lo, vengeance cometh speedily upon the ungodly ass=hlgree>as the whirlwind; and who shall escape it?

D&C 97:23
The Lord's scourge shall pass over by night and by day, and the report thereof shall vex all people; yea, it shall not be stayed until the Lord come;

D&C 98:7
And ass=hlgree>as pertaining to law of man, whatsoever is more or less than this, cometh of evil.

D&C 98:19
Behold, I, the Lord, am not well pleased with many who are in the church at Kirtland;

D&C 98:21
Verily I say unto you, that I, the Lord, will chasten them and will do whatsoever I list, if they do not repent and observe all things whatsoever I have said unto them.

D&C 98:24
But if ye bear it not patiently, it shall be accounted unto you ass=hlgree>as being meted out ass=hlgree>as a just measure unto you.

D&C 98:31
Nevertheless, thine enemy is in thine hands; and if thou rewardest him according to his works thou art justified; if he hass=hlblue>as sought thy life, and thy life is endangered by him, thine enemy is in thine hands and thou art justified.

D&C 98:39
And again, verily I say unto you, if after thine enemy hass=hlblue>as come upon thee the first time, he repent and come unto thee praying thy forgiveness, thou shalt forgive him, and shalt hold it no more ass=hlgree>as a testimony against thine enemy--

D&C 98:40
And so on unto the second and third time; and ass=hlgree>as oft ass=hlgree>as thine enemy repenteth of the trespass wherewith he hass=hlblue>as trespassed against thee, thou shalt forgive him, until seventy times seven.

D&C 98:41
And if he trespass against thee and repent not the first time, nevertheless thou shalt forgive him.

D&C 98:42
And if he trespass against thee the second time, and repent not, nevertheless thou shalt forgive him.

D&C 98:43
And if he trespass against thee the third time, and repent not, thou shalt also forgive him.

D&C 98:44
But if he trespass against thee the fourth time thou shalt not forgive him, but shalt bring these testimonies before the Lord; and they shall not be blotted out until he repent and reward thee four-fold in all things wherewith he hass=hlblue>as trespassed against thee.

D&C 98:47
But if the children shall repent, or the children's children, and turn to the Lord their God, with all their hearts and with all their might, mind, and strength, and restore four-fold for all their trespasses wherewith they have trespassed, or wherewith their fathers have trespassed, or their fathers' fathers, then thine indignation shall be turned away;

D&C 98:48
And vengeance shall no more come upon them, saith the Lord thy God, and their trespasses shall never be brought any more ass=hlgree>as a testimony before the Lord against them. Amen.

D&C 99:1
Behold, thus saith the Lord unto my servant John Murdock-- thou art called to go into the eastern countries from house to house, from village to village, and from city to city, to proclaim mine everlasting gospel unto the inhabitants thereof, in the midst of persecution and wickedness.

D&C 99:3
And who receiveth you ass=hlgree>as a little child, receiveth my kingdom; and blessed are they, for they shall obtain mercy.

D&C 99:5
And behold, and lo, I come quickly to judgment, to convince all of their ungodly deeds which they have committed against me, ass=hlgree>as it is written of me in the volume of the book.

D&C 100:1
Verily, thus saith the Lord unto you, my friends Sidney and Joseph, your families are well; they are in mine hands, and I will do with them ass=hlgree>as seemeth me good; for in me there is all power.

D&C 100:3
Behold, and lo, I have much people in this place, in the regions round about; and an effectual door shall be opened in the regions round about in this eastern land.

D&C 100:4
Therefore, I, the Lord, have suffered you to come unto this place; for thus it wass=hlblue>as expedient in me for the salvation of souls.

D&C 100:8
And I give unto you this promise, that inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye do this the Holy Ghost shall be shed forth in bearing record unto all things whatsoever ye shall say.

D&C 100:13
And now I give unto you a word concerning Zion. Zion shall be redeemed, although she is chastened for a little season.

D&C 100:14
Thy brethren, my servants Orson Hyde and John Gould, are in my hands; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they keep my commandments they shall be saved.

D&C 101:1
Verily I say unto you, concerning your brethren who have been afflicted, and persecuted, and cast out from the land of their inheritance--

D&C 101:4
Therefore, they must needs be chastened and tried, even ass=hlgree>as Abraham, who wass=hlblue>as commanded to offer up his only son.

D&C 101:5
For all those who will not endure chastening, but deny me, cannot be sanctified.

D&C 101:9
Verily I say unto you, notwithstanding their sins, my bowels are filled with compassion towards them. I will not utterly cast them off; and in the day of wrath I will remember mercy.

D&C 101:10
I have sworn, and the decree hath gone forth by a former commandment which I have given unto you, that I would let fall the sword of mine indignation in behalf of my people; and even ass=hlgree>as I have said, it shall come to pass.

D&C 101:11
Mine indignation is soon to be poured out without measure upon all nations; and this will I do when the cup of their iniquity is full.

D&C 101:18
They that remain, and are pure in heart, shall return, and come to their inheritances, they and their children, with songs of everlasting joy, to build up the waste places of Zion--

D&C 101:22
Behold, it is my will, that all they who call on my name, and worship me according to mine everlasting gospel, should gather together, and stand in holy places;

D&C 101:24
And every corruptible thing, both of man, or of the beasts of the field, or of the fowls of the heavens, or of the fish of the sea, that dwells upon all the face of the earth, shall be consumed;

D&C 101:26
And in that day the enmity of man, and the enmity of beasts, yea, the enmity of all flesh, shall cease from before my face.

D&C 101:27
And in that day whatsoever any man shall ass=hlblue>ask, it shall be given unto him.

D&C 101:30
In that day an infant shall not die until he is old; and his life shall be ass=hlgree>as the age of a tree;

D&C 101:33
Things which have passed, and hidden things which no man knew, things of the earth, by which it wass=hlblue>as made, and the purpose and the end thereof--

D&C 101:39
When men are called unto mine everlasting gospel, and covenant with an everlasting covenant, they are accounted ass=hlgree>as the salt of the earth and the savor of men;

D&C 101:40
They are called to be the savor of men; therefore, if that salt of the earth lose its savor, behold, it is thenceforth good for nothing only to be cast out and trodden under the feet of men.

D&C 101:41
Behold, here is wisdom concerning the children of Zion, even many, but not all; they were found transgressors, therefore they must needs be chastened--

D&C 101:42
He that exalteth himself shall be abased, and he that abaseth himself shall be exalted.

D&C 101:46
Now, the servants of the nobleman went and did ass=hlgree>as their lord commanded them, and planted the olive trees, and built a hedge round about, and set watchmen, and began to build a tower.

D&C 101:53
Ought ye not to have done even ass=hlgree>as I commanded you, and-- after ye had planted the vineyard, and built the hedge round about, and set watchmen upon the walls thereof-- built the tower also, and set a watchman upon the tower, and watched for my vineyard, and not have fallen ass=hlblue>asleep, lest the enemy should come upon you?

D&C 101:54
And behold, the watchman upon the tower would have seen the enemy while he wass=hlblue>as yet afar off; and then ye could have made ready and kept the enemy from breaking down the hedge thereof, and saved my vineyard from the hands of the destroyer.

D&C 101:58
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they gather together against you, avenge me of mine enemies, that by and by I may come with the residue of mine house and possess the land.

D&C 101:63
Again, verily I say unto you, I will show unto you wisdom in me concerning all the churches, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are willing to be guided in a right and proper way for their salvation--

D&C 101:65
Therefore, I must gather together my people, according to the parable of the wheat and the tares, that the wheat may be secured in the garners to possess eternal life, and be crowned with celestial glory, when I shall come in the kingdom of my Father to reward every man according ass=hlgree>as his work shall be;

D&C 101:68
Nevertheless, ass=hlgree>as I have said unto you in a former commandment, let not your gathering be in haste, nor by flight; but let all things be prepared before you.

D&C 101:70
Which saith, or teacheth, to purchase all the lands with money, which can be purchased for money, in the region round about the land which I have appointed to be the land of Zion, for the beginning of the gathering of my saints;

D&C 101:71
All the land which can be purchased in Jackson county, and the counties round about, and leave the residue in mine hand.

D&C 101:72
Now, verily I say unto you, let all the churches gather together all their moneys; let these things be done in their time, but not in haste; and observe to have all things prepared before you.

D&C 101:73
And let honorable men be appointed, even wise men, and send them to purchase these lands.

D&C 101:74
And the churches in the eastern countries, when they are built up, if they will hearken unto this counsel they may buy lands and gather together upon them; and in this way they may establish Zion.

D&C 101:75
There is even now already in store sufficient, yea, even an abundance, to redeem Zion, and establish her waste places, no more to be thrown down, were the churches, who call themselves after my name, willing to hearken to my voice.

D&C 101:76
And again I say unto you, those who have been scattered by their enemies, it is my will that they should continue to importune for redress, and redemption, by the hands of those who are placed ass=hlgree>as rulers and are in authority over you--

D&C 101:82
There wass=hlblue>as in a city a judge which feared not God, neither regarded man.

D&C 101:83
And there wass=hlblue>as a widow in that city, and she came unto him, saying: Avenge me of mine adversary.

D&C 101:90
And in his hot displeasure, and in his fierce anger, in his time, will cut off those wicked, unfaithful, and unjust stewards, and appoint them their portion among hypocrites, and unbelievers;

D&C 101:91
Even in outer darkness, where there is weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth.

D&C 101:95
That I may proceed to bring to pass my act, my strange act, and perform my work, my strange work, that men may discern between the righteous and the wicked, saith your God.

D&C 101:100
Nevertheless, I do not say they shall not dwell thereon; for inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they bring forth fruit and works meet for my kingdom they shall dwell thereon.

D&C 102:1
This day a general council of twenty-four high priests ass=hlblue>assembled at the house of Joseph Smith, Jun., by revelation, and proceeded to organize the high council of the church of Christ, which wass=hlblue>as to consist of twelve high priests, and one or three presidents ass=hlgree>as the case might require.

D&C 102:2
The high council wass=hlblue>as appointed by revelation for the purpose of settling important difficulties which might arise in the church, which could not be settled by the church or the bishop's council to the satisfaction of the parties.

D&C 102:4
The above-named councilors were then ass=hlblue>asked whether they accepted their appointments, and whether they would act in that office according to the law of heaven, to which they all answered that they accepted their appointments, and would fill their offices according to the grace of God bestowed upon them.

D&C 102:5
The number composing the council, who voted in the name and for the church in appointing the above-named councilors were forty-three, ass=hlgree>as follows: nine high priests, seventeen elders, four priests, and thirteen members.

D&C 102:10
And it is according to the dignity of his office that he should preside over the council of the church; and it is his privilege to be ass=hlblue>assisted by two other presidents, appointed after the same manner that he himself wass=hlblue>as appointed.

D&C 102:11
And in case of the absence of one or both of those who are appointed to ass=hlblue>assist him, he hass=hlblue>as power to preside over the council without an ass=hlblue>assistant; and in case he himself is absent, the other presidents have power to preside in his stead, both or either of them.

D&C 102:12
Whenever a high council of the church of Christ is regularly organized, according to the foregoing pattern, it shall be the duty of the twelve councilors to cast lots by numbers, and thereby ass=hlblue>ascertain who of the twelve shall speak first, commencing with number one and so in succession to number twelve.

D&C 102:13
Whenever this council convenes to act upon any case, the twelve councilors shall consider whether it is a difficult one or not; if it is not, two only of the councilors shall speak upon it, according to the form above written.

D&C 102:14
But if it is thought to be difficult, four shall be appointed; and if more difficult, six; but in no case shall more than six be appointed to speak.

D&C 102:15
The accused, in all cases, hass=hlblue>as a right to one-half of the council, to prevent insult or injustice.

D&C 102:16
And the councilors appointed to speak before the council are to present the case, after the evidence is examined, in its true light before the council; and every man is to speak according to equity and justice.

D&C 102:18
In all cases the accuser and the accused shall have a privilege of speaking for themselves before the council, after the evidences are heard and the councilors who are appointed to speak on the case have finished their remarks.

D&C 102:19
After the evidences are heard, the councilors, accuser and accused have spoken, the president shall give a decision according to the understanding which he shall have of the case, and call upon the twelve councilors to sanction the same by their vote.

D&C 102:20
But should the remaining councilors, who have not spoken, or any one of them, after hearing the evidences and pleadings impartially, discover an error in the decision of the president, they can manifest it, and the case shall have a re-hearing.

D&C 102:21
And if, after a careful re-hearing, any additional light is shown upon the case, the decision shall be altered accordingly.

D&C 102:22
But in case no additional light is given, the first decision shall stand, the majority of the council having power to determine the same.

D&C 102:23
In case of difficulty respecting doctrine or principle, if there is not a sufficiency written to make the case clear to the minds of the council, the president may inquire and obtain the mind of the Lord by revelation.

D&C 102:27
Should the parties or either of them be dissatisfied with the decision of said council, they may appeal to the high council of the seat of the First Presidency of the Church, and have a re-hearing, which case shall there be conducted, according to the former pattern written, ass=hlgree>as though no such decision had been made.

D&C 102:28
This council of high priests abroad is only to be called on the most difficult cases of church matters; and no common or ordinary case is to be sufficient to call such council.

D&C 102:32
The latter can only be called in question by the general authorities of the church in case of transgression.

D&C 102:33
Resolved: that the president or presidents of the seat of the First Presidency of the Church shall have power to determine whether any such case, ass=hlgree>as may be appealed, is justly entitled to a re-hearing, after examining the appeal and the evidences and statements accompanying it.

D&C 102:34
The twelve councilors then proceeded to cast lots or ballot, to ass=hlblue>ascertain who should speak first, and the following wass=hlblue>as the result, namely: 1, Oliver Cowdery; 2, Joseph Coe; 3, Samuel H. Smith; 4, Luke Johnson; 5, John S. Carter; 6, Sylvester Smith; 7, John Johnson; 8, Orson Hyde; 9, Jared Carter; 10, Joseph Smith, Sen.; 11, John Smith; 12, Martin Harris.

D&C 103:2
Being driven and smitten by the hands of mine enemies, on whom I will pour out my wrath without measure in mine own time.

D&C 103:3
For I have suffered them thus far, that they might fill up the measure of their iniquities, that their cup might be full;

D&C 103:4
And that those who call themselves after my name might be chastened for a little season with a sore and grievous chastisement, because they did not hearken altogether unto the precepts and commandments which I gave unto them.

D&C 103:5
But verily I say unto you, that I have decreed a decree which my people shall realize, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they hearken from this very hour unto the counsel which I, the Lord their God, shall give unto them.

D&C 103:7
And by hearkening to observe all the words which I, the Lord their God, shall speak unto them, they shall never cease to prevail until the kingdoms of the world are subdued under my feet, and the earth is given unto the saints, to possess it forever and ever.

D&C 103:8
But inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they keep not my commandments, and hearken not to observe all my words, the kingdoms of the world shall prevail against them.

D&C 103:10
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are not the saviors of men, they are ass=hlgree>as salt that hass=hlblue>as lost its savor, and is thenceforth good for nothing but to be cast out and trodden under foot of men.

D&C 103:11
But verily I say unto you, I have decreed that your brethren which have been scattered shall return to the lands of their inheritances, and shall build up the waste places of Zion.

D&C 103:12
For after much tribulation, ass=hlgree>as I have said unto you in a former commandment, cometh the blessing.

D&C 103:16
Therefore, I will raise up unto my people a man, who shall lead them like ass=hlgree>as Moses led the children of Israel.

D&C 103:18
And ass=hlgree>as your fathers were led at the first, even so shall the redemption of Zion be.

D&C 103:19
Therefore, let not your hearts faint, for I say not unto you ass=hlgree>as I said unto your fathers: Mine angel shall go up before you, but not my presence.

D&C 103:22
Therefore let my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., say unto the strength of my house, my young men and the middle aged-- Gather yourselves together unto the land of Zion, upon the land which I have bought with money that hass=hlblue>as been consecrated unto me.

D&C 103:23
And let all the churches send up wise men with their moneys, and purchase lands even ass=hlgree>as I have commanded them.

D&C 103:24
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as mine enemies come against you to drive you from my goodly land, which I have consecrated to be the land of Zion, even from your own lands after these testimonies, which ye have brought before me against them, ye shall curse them;

D&C 103:29
It is my will that my servant Sidney Rigdon shall lift up his voice in the congregations in the eastern countries, in preparing the churches to keep the commandments which I have given unto them concerning the restoration and redemption of Zion.

D&C 103:31
Behold this is my will; ass=hlblue>ask and ye shall receive; but men do not always do my will.

D&C 103:35
Therefore, ass=hlgree>as I said unto you, ass=hlblue>ask and ye shall receive; pray earnestly that peradventure my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., may go with you, and preside in the midst of my people, and organize my kingdom upon the consecrated land, and establish the children of Zion upon the laws and commandments which have been and which shall be given unto you.

D&C 103:36
All victory and glory is brought to pass unto you through your diligence, faithfulness, and prayers of faith.

D&C 104:1
Verily I say unto you, my friends, I give unto you counsel, and a commandment, concerning all the properties which belong to the order which I commanded to be organized and established, to be a united order, and an everlasting order for the benefit of my church, and for the salvation of men until I come--

D&C 104:2
With promise immutable and unchangeable, that inasmuch ass=hlgree>as those whom I commanded were faithful they should be blessed with a multiplicity of blessings;

D&C 104:3
But inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they were not faithful they were nigh unto cursing.

D&C 104:4
Therefore, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as some of my servants have not kept the commandment, but have broken the covenant through covetousness, and with feigned words, I have cursed them with a very sore and grievous curse.

D&C 104:5
For I, the Lord, have decreed in my heart, that inasmuch ass=hlgree>as any man belonging to the order shall be found a transgressor, or, in other words, shall break the covenant with which ye are bound, he shall be cursed in his life, and shall be trodden down by whom I will;

D&C 104:8
Therefore, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you are found transgressors, you cannot escape my wrath in your lives.

D&C 104:9
Inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye are cut off for transgression, ye cannot escape the buffetings of Satan until the day of redemption.

D&C 104:13
For it is expedient that I, the Lord, should make every man accountable, ass=hlgree>as a steward over earthly blessings, which I have made and prepared for my creatures.

D&C 104:20
Let my servant Sidney Rigdon have appointed unto him the place where he now resides, and the lot of the tannery for his stewardship, for his support while he is laboring in my vineyard, even ass=hlgree>as I will, when I shall command him.

D&C 104:23
And I will multiply blessings upon him, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he will be humble before me.

D&C 104:25
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he is faithful, I will multiply blessings upon him and his seed after him.

D&C 104:26
And let my servant Martin Harris devote his moneys for the proclaiming of my words, according ass=hlgree>as my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., shall direct.

D&C 104:31
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are faithful, behold I will bless, and multiply blessings upon them.

D&C 104:33
And, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are faithful, I will multiply blessings upon them and their seed after them, even a multiplicity of blessings.

D&C 104:34
And again, let my servant John Johnson have the house in which he lives, and the inheritance, all save the ground which hass=hlblue>as been reserved for the building of my houses, which pertains to that inheritance, and those lots which have been named for my servant Oliver Cowdery.

D&C 104:35
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he is faithful, I will multiply blessings upon him.

D&C 104:36
And it is my will that he should sell the lots that are laid off for the building up of the city of my saints, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as it shall be made known to him by the voice of the Spirit, and according to the counsel of the order, and by the voice of the order.

D&C 104:38
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he is faithful, I will multiply a multiplicity of blessings upon him.

D&C 104:39
And again, let my servant Newel K. Whitney have appointed unto him the houses and lot where he now resides, and the lot and building on which the mercantile establishment stands, and also the lot which is on the corner south of the mercantile establishment, and also the lot on which the ass=hlblue>ashery is situated.

D&C 104:42
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he is faithful in keeping my commandments, which I have given unto him, I will multiply blessings upon him and his seed after him, even a multiplicity of blessings.

D&C 104:46
And I will multiply blessings upon the house of my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he is faithful, even a multiplicity of blessings.

D&C 104:47
And now, a commandment I give unto you concerning Zion, that you shall no longer be bound ass=hlgree>as a united order to your brethren of Zion, only on this wise--

D&C 104:53
Therefore, you are dissolved ass=hlgree>as a united order with your brethren, that you are not bound only up to this hour unto them, only on this wise, ass=hlgree>as I said, by loan ass=hlgree>as shall be agreed by this order in council, ass=hlgree>as your circumstances will admit and the voice of the council direct.

D&C 104:60
And ye shall prepare for yourselves a place for a treasury, and consecrate it unto my name.

D&C 104:61
And ye shall appoint one among you to keep the treasury, and he shall be ordained unto this blessing.

D&C 104:62
And there shall be a seal upon the treasury, and all the sacred things shall be delivered into the treasury; and no man among you shall call it his own, or any part of it, for it shall belong to you all with one accord.

D&C 104:63
And I give it unto you from this very hour; and now see to it, that ye go to and make use of the stewardship which I have appointed unto you, exclusive of the sacred things, for the purpose of printing these sacred things ass=hlgree>as I have said.

D&C 104:64
And the avails of the sacred things shall be had in the treasury, and a seal shall be upon it; and it shall not be used or taken out of the treasury by any one, neither shall the seal be loosed which shall be placed upon it, only by the voice of the order, or by commandment.

D&C 104:65
And thus shall ye preserve the avails of the sacred things in the treasury, for sacred and holy purposes.

D&C 104:66
And this shall be called the sacred treasury of the Lord; and a seal shall be kept upon it that it may be holy and consecrated unto the Lord.

D&C 104:67
And again, there shall be another treasury prepared, and a treasurer appointed to keep the treasury, and a seal shall be placed upon it;

D&C 104:68
And all moneys that you receive in your stewardships, by improving upon the properties which I have appointed unto you, in houses, or in lands, or in cattle, or in all things save it be the holy and sacred writings, which I have reserved unto myself for holy and sacred purposes, shall be cast into the treasury ass=hlgree>as fast ass=hlgree>as you receive moneys, by hundreds, or by fifties, or by twenties, or by tens, or by fives.

D&C 104:69
Or in other words, if any man among you obtain five dollars let him cast them into the treasury; or if he obtain ten, or twenty, or fifty, or an hundred, let him do likewise;

D&C 104:71
And there shall not any part of it be used, or taken out of the treasury, only by the voice and common consent of the order.

D&C 104:72
And this shall be the voice and common consent of the order-- that any man among you say to the treasurer: I have need of this to help me in my stewardship--

D&C 104:73
If it be five dollars, or if it be ten dollars, or twenty, or fifty, or a hundred, the treasurer shall give unto him the sum which he requires to help him in his stewardship--

D&C 104:75
But so long ass=hlgree>as he is in full fellowship, and is faithful and wise in his stewardship, this shall be his token unto the treasurer that the treasurer shall not withhold.

D&C 104:76
But in case of transgression, the treasurer shall be subject unto the council and voice of the order.

D&C 104:77
And in case the treasurer is found an unfaithful and an unwise steward, he shall be subject to the council and voice of the order, and shall be removed out of his place, and another shall be appointed in his stead.

D&C 104:80
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you are diligent and humble, and exercise the prayer of faith, behold, I will soften the hearts of those to whom you are in debt, until I shall send means unto you for your deliverance.

D&C 104:82
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as ye are humble and faithful and call upon my name, behold, I will give you the victory.

D&C 104:84
Inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you obtain a chance to loan money by hundreds, or thousands, even until you shall loan enough to deliver yourself from bondage, it is your privilege.

D&C 104:85
And pledge the properties which I have put into your hands, this once, by giving your names by common consent or otherwise, ass=hlgree>as it shall seem good unto you.

D&C 104:86
I give unto you this privilege, this once; and behold, if you proceed to do the things which I have laid before you, according to my commandments, all these things are mine, and ye are my stewards, and the master will not suffer his house to be broken up. Even so. Amen.

D&C 105:1
Verily I say unto you who have ass=hlblue>assembled yourselves together that you may learn my will concerning the redemption of mine afflicted people--

D&C 105:3
But behold, they have not learned to be obedient to the things which I required at their hands, but are full of all manner of evil, and do not impart of their substance, ass=hlgree>as becometh saints, to the poor and afflicted among them;

D&C 105:6
And my people must needs be chastened until they learn obedience, if it must needs be, by the things which they suffer.

D&C 105:9
Therefore, in consequence of the transgressions of my people, it is expedient in me that mine elders should wait for a little season for the redemption of Zion--

D&C 105:11
And this cannot be brought to pass until mine elders are endowed with power from on high.

D&C 105:12
For behold, I have prepared a great endowment and blessing to be poured out upon them, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they are faithful and continue in humility before me.

D&C 105:13
Therefore it is expedient in me that mine elders should wait for a little season, for the redemption of Zion.

D&C 105:14
For behold, I do not require at their hands to fight the battles of Zion; for, ass=hlgree>as I said in a former commandment, even so will I fulfil-- I will fight your battles.

D&C 105:15
Behold, the destroyer I have sent forth to destroy and lay waste mine enemies; and not many years hence they shall not be left to pollute mine heritage, and to blaspheme my name upon the lands which I have consecrated for the gathering together of my saints.

D&C 105:18
But inasmuch ass=hlgree>as there are those who have hearkened unto my words, I have prepared a blessing and an endowment for them, if they continue faithful.

D&C 105:20
And now, verily I say unto you, a commandment I give unto you, that ass=hlgree>as many ass=hlgree>as have come up hither, that can stay in the region round about, let them stay;

D&C 105:21
And those that cannot stay, who have families in the east, let them tarry for a little season, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as my servant Joseph shall appoint unto them;

D&C 105:24
Talk not of judgments, neither boast of faith nor of mighty works, but carefully gather together, ass=hlgree>as much in one region ass=hlgree>as can be, consistently with the feelings of the people;

D&C 105:27
And I will soften the hearts of the people, ass=hlgree>as I did the heart of Pharaoh, from time to time, until my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., and mine elders, whom I have appointed, shall have time to gather up the strength of my house,

D&C 105:28
And to have sent wise men, to fulfil that which I have commanded concerning the purchasing of all the lands in Jackson county that can be purchased, and in the adjoining counties round about.

D&C 105:29
For it is my will that these lands should be purchased; and after they are purchased that my saints should possess them according to the laws of consecration which I have given.

D&C 105:30
And after these lands are purchased, I will hold the armies of Israel guiltless in taking possession of their own lands, which they have previously purchased with their moneys, and of throwing down the towers of mine enemies that may be upon them, and scattering their watchmen, and avenging me of mine enemies unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me.

D&C 105:31
But first let my army become very great, and let it be sanctified before me, that it may become fair ass=hlgree>as the sun, and clear ass=hlgree>as the moon, and that her banners may be terrible unto all nations;

D&C 105:35
There hass=hlblue>as been a day of calling, but the time hass=hlblue>as come for a day of choosing; and let those be chosen that are worthy.

D&C 105:37
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they follow the counsel which they receive, they shall have power after many days to accomplish all things pertaining to Zion.

D&C 106:2
And should preach my everlasting gospel, and lift up his voice and warn the people, not only in his own place, but in the adjoining counties;

D&C 106:4
And again, verily I say unto you, the coming of the Lord draweth nigh, and it overtaketh the world ass=hlgree>as a thief in the night--

D&C 106:5
Therefore, gird up your loins, that you may be the children of light, and that day shall not overtake you ass=hlgree>as a thief.

D&C 106:6
And again, verily I say unto you, there wass=hlblue>as joy in heaven when my servant Warren bowed to my scepter, and separated himself from the crafts of men;

D&C 106:7
Therefore, blessed is my servant Warren, for I will have mercy on him; and, notwithstanding the vanity of his heart, I will lift him up inasmuch ass=hlgree>as he will humble himself before me.

D&C 106:8
And I will give him grace and ass=hlblue>assurance wherewith he may stand; and if he continue to be a faithful witness and a light unto the church I have prepared a crown for him in the mansions of my Father. Even so. Amen.

D&C 107:2
Why the first is called the Melchizedek Priesthood is because Melchizedek wass=hlblue>as such a great high priest.

D&C 107:3
Before his day it wass=hlblue>as called the Holy Priesthood, after the Order of the Son of God.

D&C 107:8
The Melchizedek Priesthood holds the right of presidency, and hass=hlblue>as power and authority over all the offices in the church in all ages of the world, to administer in spiritual things.

D&C 107:11
An elder hass=hlblue>as a right to officiate in his stead when the high priest is not present.

D&C 107:13
The second priesthood is called the Priesthood of Aaron, because it wass=hlblue>as conferred upon Aaron and his seed, throughout all their generations.

D&C 107:14
Why it is called the lesser priesthood is because it is an appendage to the greater, or the Melchizedek Priesthood, and hass=hlblue>as power in administering outward ordinances.

D&C 107:16
No man hass=hlblue>as a legal right to this office, to hold the keys of this priesthood, except he be a literal descendant of Aaron.

D&C 107:17
But ass=hlgree>as a high priest of the Melchizedek Priesthood hass=hlblue>as authority to officiate in all the lesser offices, he may officiate in the office of bishop when no literal descendant of Aaron can be found, provided he is called and set apart and ordained unto this power by the hands of the Presidency of the Melchizedek Priesthood.

D&C 107:19
To have the privilege of receiving the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, to have the heavens opened unto them, to commune with the general ass=hlblue>assembly and church of the Firstborn, and to enjoy the communion and presence of God the Father, and Jesus the mediator of the new covenant.

D&C 107:29
Unless this is the case, their decisions are not entitled to the same blessings which the decisions of a quorum of three presidents were anciently, who were ordained after the order of Melchizedek, and were righteous and holy men.

D&C 107:32
And in case that any decision of these quorums is made in unrighteousness, it may be brought before a general ass=hlblue>assembly of the several quorums, which constitute the spiritual authorities of the church; otherwise there can be no appeal from their decision.

D&C 107:38
It is the duty of the traveling high council to call upon the Seventy, when they need ass=hlblue>assistance, to fill the several calls for preaching and administering the gospel, instead of any others.

D&C 107:39
It is the duty of the Twelve, in all large branches of the church, to ordain evangelical ministers, ass=hlgree>as they shall be designated unto them by revelation--

D&C 107:40
The order of this priesthood wass=hlblue>as confirmed to be handed down from father to son, and rightly belongs to the literal descendants of the chosen seed, to whom the promises were made.

D&C 107:41
This order wass=hlblue>as instituted in the days of Adam, and came down by lineage in the following manner:

D&C 107:42
From Adam to Seth, who wass=hlblue>as ordained by Adam at the age of sixty-nine years, and wass=hlblue>as blessed by him three years previous to his (Adam's) death, and received the promise of God by his father, that his posterity should be the chosen of the Lord, and that they should be preserved unto the end of the earth;

D&C 107:43
Because he (Seth) wass=hlblue>as a perfect man, and his likeness wass=hlblue>as the express likeness of his father, insomuch that he seemed to be like unto his father in all things, and could be distinguished from him only by his age.

D&C 107:44
Enos wass=hlblue>as ordained at the age of one hundred and thirty-four years and four months, by the hand of Adam.

D&C 107:45
God called upon Cainan in the wilderness in the fortieth year of his age; and he met Adam in journeying to the place Shedolamak. He wass=hlblue>as eighty-seven years old when he received his ordination.

D&C 107:46
Mahalaleel wass=hlblue>as four hundred and ninety-six years and seven days old when he wass=hlblue>as ordained by the hand of Adam, who also blessed him.

D&C 107:47
Jared wass=hlblue>as two hundred years old when he wass=hlblue>as ordained under the hand of Adam, who also blessed him.

D&C 107:48
Enoch wass=hlblue>as twenty-five years old when he wass=hlblue>as ordained under the hand of Adam; and he wass=hlblue>as sixty-five and Adam blessed him.

D&C 107:49
And he saw the Lord, and he walked with him, and wass=hlblue>as before his face continually; and he walked with God three hundred and sixty-five years, making him four hundred and thirty years old when he wass=hlblue>as translated.

D&C 107:50
Methuselah wass=hlblue>as one hundred years old when he wass=hlblue>as ordained under the hand of Adam.

D&C 107:51
Lamech wass=hlblue>as thirty-two years old when he wass=hlblue>as ordained under the hand of Seth.

D&C 107:52
Noah wass=hlblue>as ten years old when he wass=hlblue>as ordained under the hand of Methuselah.

D&C 107:53
Three years previous to the death of Adam, he called Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, Enoch, and Methuselah, who were all high priests, with the residue of his posterity who were righteous, into the valley of Adam-ondi-Ahman, and there bestowed upon them his last blessing.

D&C 107:56
And Adam stood up in the midst of the congregation; and, notwithstanding he wass=hlblue>as bowed down with age, being full of the Holy Ghost, predicted whatsoever should befall his posterity unto the latest generation.

D&C 107:63
Wherefore, from deacon to teacher, and from teacher to priest, and from priest to elder, severally ass=hlgree>as they are appointed, according to the covenants and commandments of the church.

D&C 107:72
And also to be a judge in Israel, to do the business of the church, to sit in judgment upon transgressors upon testimony ass=hlgree>as it shall be laid before him according to the laws, by the ass=hlblue>assistance of his counselors, whom he hass=hlblue>as chosen or will choose among the elders of the church.

D&C 107:73
This is the duty of a bishop who is not a literal descendant of Aaron, but hass=hlblue>as been ordained to the High Priesthood after the order of Melchizedek.

D&C 107:75
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as there are other bishops appointed they shall act in the same office.

D&C 107:76
But a literal descendant of Aaron hass=hlblue>as a legal right to the presidency of this priesthood, to the keys of this ministry, to act in the office of bishop independently, without counselors, except in a case where a President of the High Priesthood, after the order of Melchizedek, is tried, to sit ass=hlgree>as a judge in Israel.

D&C 107:78
Again, verily, I say unto you, the most important business of the church, and the most difficult cases of the church, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as there is not satisfaction upon the decision of the bishop or judges, it shall be handed over and carried up unto the council of the church, before the Presidency of the High Priesthood.

D&C 107:79
And the Presidency of the council of the High Priesthood shall have power to call other high priests, even twelve, to ass=hlblue>assist ass=hlgree>as counselors; and thus the Presidency of the High Priesthood and its counselors shall have power to decide upon testimony according to the laws of the church.

D&C 107:82
And inasmuch ass=hlgree>as a President of the High Priesthood shall transgress, he shall be had in remembrance before the common council of the church, who shall be ass=hlblue>assisted by twelve counselors of the High Priesthood;

D&C 107:85
And again, verily I say unto you, the duty of a president over the office of a deacon is to preside over twelve deacons, to sit in council with them, and to teach them their duty, edifying one another, ass=hlgree>as it is given according to the covenants.

D&C 107:86
And also the duty of the president over the office of the teachers is to preside over twenty-four of the teachers, and to sit in council with them, teaching them the duties of their office, ass=hlgree>as given in the covenants.

D&C 107:87
Also the duty of the president over the Priesthood of Aaron is to preside over forty-eight priests, and sit in council with them, to teach them the duties of their office, ass=hlgree>as is given in the covenants--

D&C 107:98
Whereass=hlblue>as other officers of the church, who belong not unto the Twelve, neither to the Seventy, are not under the responsibility to travel among all nations, but are to travel ass=hlgree>as their circumstances shall allow, notwithstanding they may hold ass=hlgree>as high and responsible offices in the church.

D&C 108:4
Wait patiently until the solemn ass=hlblue>assembly shall be called of my servants, then you shall be remembered with the first of mine elders, and receive right by ordination with the rest of mine elders whom I have chosen.

D&C 109:2
Thou who hast commanded thy servants to build a house to thy name in this place [Kirtland].

D&C 109:4
And now we ass=hlblue>ask thee, Holy Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of thy bosom, in whose name alone salvation can be administered to the children of men, we ass=hlblue>ask thee, O Lord, to accept of this house, the workmanship of the hands of us, thy servants, which thou didst command us to build.

D&C 109:6
And ass=hlgree>as thou hast said in a revelation, given to us, calling us thy friends, saying-- Call your solemn ass=hlblue>assembly, ass=hlgree>as I have commanded you;

D&C 109:7
And ass=hlgree>as all have not faith, seek ye diligently and teach one another words of wisdom; yea, seek ye out of the best books words of wisdom, seek learning even by study and also by faith;

D&C 109:8
Organize yourselves; prepare every needful thing, and establish a house, even a house of prayer, a house of fasting, a house of faith, a house of learning, a house of glory, a house of order, a house of God;

D&C 109:10
And now, Holy Father, we ass=hlblue>ask thee to ass=hlblue>assist us, thy people, with thy grace, in calling our solemn ass=hlblue>assembly, that it may be done to thine honor and to thy divine acceptance;

D&C 109:11
And in a manner that we may be found worthy, in thy sight, to secure a fulfilment of the promises which thou hast made unto us, thy people, in the revelations given unto us;

D&C 109:13
And that all people who shall enter upon the threshold of the Lord's house may feel thy power, and feel constrained to acknowledge that thou hast sanctified it, and that it is thy house, a place of thy holiness.

D&C 109:14
And do thou grant, Holy Father, that all those who shall worship in this house may be taught words of wisdom out of the best books, and that they may seek learning even by study, and also by faith, ass=hlgree>as thou hast said;

D&C 109:16
And that this house may be a house of prayer, a house of fasting, a house of faith, a house of glory and of God, even thy house;

D&C 109:21
And when thy people transgress, any of them, they may speedily repent and return unto thee, and find favor in thy sight, and be restored to the blessings which thou hast ordained to be poured out upon those who shall reverence thee in thy house.

D&C 109:22
And we ass=hlblue>ask thee, Holy Father, that thy servants may go forth from this house armed with thy power, and that thy name may be upon them, and thy glory be round about them, and thine angels have charge over them;

D&C 109:23
And from this place they may bear exceedingly great and glorious tidings, in truth, unto the ends of the earth, that they may know that this is thy work, and that thou hast put forth thy hand, to fulfil that which thou hast spoken by the mouths of the prophets, concerning the last days.

D&C 109:24
We ass=hlblue>ask thee, Holy Father, to establish the people that shall worship, and honorably hold a name and standing in this thy house, to all generations and for eternity;

D&C 109:28
And if they shall smite this people thou wilt smite them; thou wilt fight for thy people ass=hlgree>as thou didst in the day of battle, that they may be delivered from the hands of all their enemies.

D&C 109:29
We ass=hlblue>ask thee, Holy Father, to confound, and ass=hlblue>astonish, and to bring to shame and confusion, all those who have spread lying reports abroad, over the world, against thy servant or servants, if they will not repent, when the everlasting gospel shall be proclaimed in their ears;

D&C 109:34
O Jehovah, have mercy upon this people, and ass=hlgree>as all men sin, forgive the transgressions of thy people, and let them be blotted out forever.

D&C 109:36
Let it be fulfilled upon them, ass=hlgree>as upon those on the day of Pentecost; let the gift of tongues be poured out upon thy people, even cloven tongues ass=hlgree>as of fire, and the interpretation thereof.

D&C 109:37
And let thy house be filled, ass=hlgree>as with a rushing mighty wind, with thy glory.

D&C 109:39
And whatsoever city thy servants shall enter, and the people of that city receive their testimony, let thy peace and thy salvation be upon that city; that they may gather out of that city the righteous, that they may come forth to Zion, or to her stakes, the places of thine appointment, with songs of everlasting joy;

D&C 109:41
And whatsoever city thy servants shall enter, and the people of that city receive not the testimony of thy servants, and thy servants warn them to save themselves from this untoward generation, let it be upon that city according to that which thou hast spoken by the mouths of thy prophets.

D&C 109:44
But thy word must be fulfilled. Help thy servants to say, with thy grace ass=hlblue>assisting them: Thy will be done, O Lord, and not ours.

D&C 109:45
We know that thou hast spoken by the mouth of thy prophets terrible things concerning the wicked, in the last days-- that thou wilt pour out thy judgments, without measure;

D&C 109:47
We ass=hlblue>ask thee, Holy Father, to remember those who have been driven by the inhabitants of Jackson county, Missouri, from the lands of their inheritance, and break off, O Lord, this yoke of affliction that hass=hlblue>as been put upon them.

D&C 109:49
O Lord, how long wilt thou suffer this people to bear this affliction, and the cries of their innocent ones to ass=hlblue>ascend up in thine ears, and their blood come up in testimony before thee, and not make a display of thy testimony in their behalf?

D&C 109:50
Have mercy, O Lord, upon the wicked mob, who have driven thy people, that they may cease to spoil, that they may repent of their sins if repentance is to be found;

D&C 109:52
And if it cannot be otherwise, that the cause of thy people may not fail before thee may thine anger be kindled, and thine indignation fall upon them, that they may be wasted away, both root and branch, from under heaven;

D&C 109:53
But inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they will repent, thou art gracious and merciful, and wilt turn away thy wrath when thou lookest upon the face of thine Anointed.

D&C 109:57
That all the ends of the earth may know that we, thy servants, have heard thy voice, and that thou hast sent us;

D&C 109:58
That from among all these, thy servants, the sons of Jacob, may gather out the righteous to build a holy city to thy name, ass=hlgree>as thou hast commanded them.

D&C 109:59
We ass=hlblue>ask thee to appoint unto Zion other stakes besides this one which thou hast appointed, that the gathering of thy people may roll on in great power and majesty, that thy work may be cut short in righteousness.

D&C 109:60
Now these words, O Lord, we have spoken before thee, concerning the revelations and commandments which thou hast given unto us, who are identified with the Gentiles.

D&C 109:61
But thou knowest that thou hast a great love for the children of Jacob, who have been scattered upon the mountains for a long time, in a cloudy and dark day.

D&C 109:62
We therefore ass=hlblue>ask thee to have mercy upon the children of Jacob, that Jerusalem, from this hour, may begin to be redeemed;

D&C 109:65
And cause that the remnants of Jacob, who have been cursed and smitten because of their transgression, be converted from their wild and savage condition to the fulness of the everlasting gospel;

D&C 109:66
That they may lay down their weapons of bloodshed, and cease their rebellions.

D&C 109:68
O Lord, remember thy servant, Joseph Smith, Jun., and all his afflictions and persecutions-- how he hass=hlblue>as covenanted with Jehovah, and vowed to thee, O Mighty God of Jacob-- and the commandments which thou hast given unto him, and that he hath sincerely striven to do thy will.

D&C 109:70
Have mercy upon all their immediate connections, that their prejudices may be broken up and swept away ass=hlgree>as with a flood; that they may be converted and redeemed with Israel, and know that thou art God.

D&C 109:71
Remember, O Lord, the presidents, even all the presidents of thy church, that thy right hand may exalt them, with all their families, and their immediate connections, that their names may be perpetuated and had in everlasting remembrance from generation to generation.

D&C 109:72
Remember all thy church, O Lord, with all their families, and all their immediate connections, with all their sick and afflicted ones, with all the poor and meek of the earth; that the kingdom, which thou hast set up without hands, may become a great mountain and fill the whole earth;

D&C 109:73
That thy church may come forth out of the wilderness of darkness, and shine forth fair ass=hlgree>as the moon, clear ass=hlgree>as the sun, and terrible ass=hlgree>as an army with banners;

D&C 109:74
And be adorned ass=hlgree>as a bride for that day when thou shalt unveil the heavens, and cause the mountains to flow down at thy presence, and the valleys to be exalted, the rough places made smooth; that thy glory may fill the earth;

D&C 109:77
O Lord God Almighty, hear us in these our petitions, and answer us from heaven, thy holy habitation, where thou sittest enthroned, with glory, honor, power, majesty, might, dominion, truth, justice, judgment, mercy, and an infinity of fulness, from everlasting to everlasting.

D&C 110:1
The veil wass=hlblue>as taken from our minds, and the eyes of our understanding were opened.

D&C 110:2
We saw the Lord standing upon the breastwork of the pulpit, before us; and under his feet wass=hlblue>as a paved work of pure gold, in color like amber.

D&C 110:3
His eyes were ass=hlgree>as a flame of fire; the hair of his head wass=hlblue>as white like the pure snow; his countenance shone above the brightness of the sun; and his voice wass=hlblue>as ass=hlgree>as the sound of the rushing of great waters, even the voice of Jehovah, saying:

D&C 110:4
I am the first and the last; I am he who liveth, I am he who wass=hlblue>as slain; I am your advocate with the Father.

D&C 110:12
After this, Eliass=hlblue>as appeared, and committed the dispensation of the gospel of Abraham, saying that in us and our seed all generations after us should be blessed.

D&C 110:13
After this vision had closed, another great and glorious vision burst upon us; for Elijah the prophet, who wass=hlblue>as taken to heaven without tasting death, stood before us, and said:

D&C 110:14
Behold, the time hass=hlblue>as fully come, which wass=hlblue>as spoken of by the mouth of Malachi-- testifying that he [Elijah] should be sent, before the great and dreadful day of the Lord come--

D&C 111:1
I, the Lord your God, am not displeased with your coming this journey, notwithstanding your follies.

D&C 111:2
I have much treasure in this city for you, for the benefit of Zion, and many people in this city, whom I will gather out in due time for the benefit of Zion, through your instrumentality.

D&C 111:3
Therefore, it is expedient that you should form acquaintance with men in this city, ass=hlgree>as you shall be led, and ass=hlgree>as it shall be given you.

D&C 111:4
And it shall come to pass in due time that I will give this city into your hands, that you shall have power over it, insomuch that they shall not discover your secret parts; and its wealth pertaining to gold and silver shall be yours.

D&C 111:10
For there are more treasures than one for you in this city.

D&C 111:11
Therefore, be ye ass=hlgree>as wise ass=hlgree>as serpents and yet without sin; and I will order all things for your good, ass=hlgree>as fast ass=hlgree>as ye are able to receive them. Amen.

D&C 112:1
Verily thus saith the Lord unto you my servant Thomass=hlblue>as: I have heard thy prayers; and thine alms have come up ass=hlgree>as a memorial before me, in behalf of those, thy brethren, who were chosen to bear testimony of my name and to send it abroad among all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people, and ordained through the instrumentality of my servants.

D&C 112:2
Verily I say unto you, there have been some few things in thine heart and with thee with which I, the Lord, wass=hlblue>as not well pleased.

D&C 112:3
Nevertheless, inasmuch ass=hlgree>as thou hast abased thyself thou shalt be exalted; therefore, all thy sins are forgiven thee.

D&C 112:9
Thy voice shall be a rebuke unto the transgressor; and at thy rebuke let the tongue of the slanderer cease its perverseness.

D&C 112:11
I know thy heart, and have heard thy prayers concerning thy brethren. Be not partial towards them in love above many others, but let thy love be for them ass=hlgree>as for thyself; and let thy love abound unto all men, and unto all who love my name.

D&C 112:16
Verily I say unto you, my servant Thomass=hlblue>as, thou art the man whom I have chosen to hold the keys of my kingdom, ass=hlgree>as pertaining to the Twelve, abroad among all nations--

D&C 112:18
For on them have I laid the burden of all the churches for a little season.

D&C 112:22
Inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they shall humble themselves before me, and abide in my word, and hearken to the voice of my Spirit.

D&C 112:23
Verily, verily, I say unto you, darkness covereth the earth, and gross darkness the minds of the people, and all flesh hass=hlblue>as become corrupt before my face.

D&C 112:24
Behold, vengeance cometh speedily upon the inhabitants of the earth, a day of wrath, a day of burning, a day of desolation, of weeping, of mourning, and of lamentation; and ass=hlgree>as a whirlwind it shall come upon all the face of the earth, saith the Lord.

D&C 112:26
First among those among you, saith the Lord, who have professed to know my name and have not known me, and have blasphemed against me in the midst of my house, saith the Lord.

D&C 112:28
But purify your hearts before me; and then go ye into all the world, and preach my gospel unto every creature who hass=hlblue>as not received it;

D&C 112:30
For unto you, the Twelve, and those, the First Presidency, who are appointed with you to be your counselors and your leaders, is the power of this priesthood given, for the last days and for the last time, in the which is the dispensation of the fulness of times,

D&C 112:32
For verily I say unto you, the keys of the dispensation, which ye have received, have come down from the fathers, and last of all, being sent down from heaven unto you.

D&C 112:34
Be faithful until I come, for I come quickly; and my reward is with me to recompense every man according ass=hlgree>as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega. Amen.

D&C 113:4
Behold, thus saith the Lord: It is a servant in the hands of Christ, who is partly a descendant of Jesse ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as of Ephraim, or of the house of Joseph, on whom there is laid much power.

D&C 113:6
Behold, thus saith the Lord, it is a descendant of Jesse, ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as of Joseph, unto whom rightly belongs the priesthood, and the keys of the kingdom, for an ensign, and for the gathering of my people in the last days.

D&C 113:7
Questions by Eliass=hlblue>as Higbee: What is meant by the command in Isaiah, 52d chapter, 1st verse, which saith: Put on thy strength, O Zion-- and what people had Isaiah reference to?

D&C 113:8
He had reference to those whom God should call in the last days, who should hold the power of priesthood to bring again Zion, and the redemption of Israel; and to put on her strength is to put on the authority of the priesthood, which she, Zion, hass=hlblue>as a right to by lineage; also to return to that power which she had lost.

D&C 114:1
Verily thus saith the Lord: It is wisdom in my servant David W. Patten, that he settle up all his business ass=hlgree>as soon ass=hlgree>as he possibly can, and make a disposition of his merchandise, that he may perform a mission unto me next spring, in company with others, even twelve including himself, to testify of my name and bear glad tidings unto all the world.

D&C 114:2
For verily thus saith the Lord, that inasmuch ass=hlgree>as there are those among you who deny my name, others shall be planted in their stead and receive their bishopric. Amen.

D&C 115:4
For thus shall my church be called in the last days, even The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

D&C 115:18
And also that other places should be appointed for stakes in the regions round about, ass=hlgree>as they shall be manifested unto my servant Joseph, from time to time.

D&C 116:1
Spring Hill is named by the Lord Adam-ondi-Ahman, because, said he, it is the place where Adam shall come to visit his people, or the Ancient of Days shall sit, ass=hlgree>as spoken of by Daniel the prophet.

D&C 117:6
For have I not the fowls of heaven, and also the fish of the sea, and the beasts of the mountains? Have I not made the earth? Do I not hold the destinies of all the armies of the nations of the earth?

D&C 117:11
Let my servant Newel K. Whitney be ass=hlblue>ashamed of the Nicolaitane band and of all their secret abominations, and of all his littleness of soul before me, saith the Lord, and come up to the land of Adam-ondi-Ahman, and be a bishop unto my people, saith the Lord, not in name but in deed, saith the Lord.

D&C 117:13
Therefore, let him contend earnestly for the redemption of the First Presidency of my Church, saith the Lord; and when he falls he shall rise again, for his sacrifice shall be more sacred unto me than his increase, saith the Lord.

D&C 118:2
Let my servant Thomass=hlblue>as remain for a season in the land of Zion, to publish my word.

D&C 119:5
Verily I say unto you, it shall come to pass that all those who gather unto the land of Zion shall be tithed of their surplus properties, and shall observe this law, or they shall not be found worthy to abide among you.

D&C 121:3
Yea, O Lord, how long shall they suffer these wrongs and unlawful oppressions, before thine heart shall be softened toward them, and thy bowels be moved with compassion toward them?

D&C 121:4
O Lord God Almighty, maker of heaven, earth, and seass=hlblue>as, and of all things that in them are, and who controllest and subjectest the devil, and the dark and benighted dominion of Sheol-- stretch forth thy hand; let thine eye pierce; let thy pavilion be taken up; let thy hiding place no longer be covered; let thine ear be inclined; let thine heart be softened, and thy bowels moved with compassion toward us.

D&C 121:10
Thou art not yet ass=hlgree>as Job; thy friends do not contend against thee, neither charge thee with transgression, ass=hlgree>as they did Job.

D&C 121:11
And they who do charge thee with transgression, their hope shall be blasted, and their prospects shall melt away ass=hlgree>as the hoar frost melteth before the burning rays of the rising sun;

D&C 121:12
And also that God hath set his hand and seal to change the times and seasons, and to blind their minds, that they may not understand his marvelous workings; that he may prove them also and take them in their own craftiness;

D&C 121:16
Cursed are all those that shall lift up the heel against mine anointed, saith the Lord, and cry they have sinned when they have not sinned before me, saith the Lord, but have done that which wass=hlblue>as meet in mine eyes, and which I commanded them.

D&C 121:20
Their basket shall not be full, their houses and their barns shall perish, and they themselves shall be despised by those that flattered them.

D&C 121:24
Behold, mine eyes see and know all their works, and I have in reserve a swift judgment in the season thereof, for them all;

D&C 121:25
For there is a time appointed for every man, according ass=hlgree>as his works shall be.

D&C 121:26
God shall give unto you knowledge by his Holy Spirit, yea, by the unspeakable gift of the Holy Ghost, that hass=hlblue>as not been revealed since the world wass=hlblue>as until now;

D&C 121:27
Which our forefathers have awaited with anxious expectation to be revealed in the last times, which their minds were pointed to by the angels, ass=hlgree>as held in reserve for the fulness of their glory;

D&C 121:30
And also, if there be bounds set to the heavens or to the seass=hlblue>as, or to the dry land, or to the sun, moon, or stars--

D&C 121:32
According to that which wass=hlblue>as ordained in the midst of the Council of the Eternal God of all other gods before this world wass=hlblue>as, that should be reserved unto the finishing and the end thereof, when every man shall enter into his eternal presence and into his immortal rest.

D&C 121:33
How long can rolling waters remain impure? What power shall stay the heavens? ass=hlgree>As well might man stretch forth his puny arm to stop the Missouri river in its decreed course, or to turn it up stream, ass=hlgree>as to hinder the Almighty from pouring down knowledge from heaven upon the heads of the Latter-day Saints.

D&C 121:35
Because their hearts are set so much upon the things of this world, and ass=hlblue>aspire to the honors of men, that they do not learn this one lesson--

D&C 121:39
We have learned by sad experience that it is the nature and disposition of almost all men, ass=hlgree>as soon ass=hlgree>as they get a little authority, ass=hlgree>as they suppose, they will immediately begin to exercise unrighteous dominion.

D&C 121:41
No power or influence can or ought to be maintained by virtue of the priesthood, only by persuasion, by long-suffering, by gentleness and meekness, and by love unfeigned;

D&C 121:43
Reproving betimes with sharpness, when moved upon by the Holy Ghost; and then showing forth afterwards an increase of love toward him whom thou hast reproved, lest he esteem thee to be his enemy;

D&C 121:45
Let thy bowels also be full of charity towards all men, and to the household of faith, and let virtue garnish thy thoughts unceasingly; then shall thy confidence wax strong in the presence of God; and the doctrine of the priesthood shall distil upon thy soul ass=hlgree>as the dews from heaven.

D&C 121:46
The Holy Ghost shall be thy constant companion, and thy scepter an unchanging scepter of righteousness and truth; and thy dominion shall be an everlasting dominion, and without compulsory means it shall flow unto thee forever and ever.

D&C 122:4
And although their influence shall cast thee into trouble, and into bars and walls, thou shalt be had in honor; and but for a small moment and thy voice shall be more terrible in the midst of thine enemies than the fierce lion, because of thy righteousness; and thy God shall stand by thee forever and ever.

D&C 122:5
If thou art called to pass through tribulation; if thou art in perils among false brethren; if thou art in perils among robbers; if thou art in perils by land or by sea;

D&C 122:7
And if thou shouldst be cast into the pit, or into the hands of murderers, and the sentence of death passed upon thee; if thou be cast into the deep; if the billowing surge conspire against thee; if fierce winds become thine enemy; if the heavens gather blackness, and all the elements combine to hedge up the way; and above all, if the very jaws of hell shall gape open the mouth wide after thee, know thou, my son, that all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for thy good.

D&C 122:9
Therefore, hold on thy way, and the priesthood shall remain with thee; for their bounds are set, they cannot pass. Thy days are known, and thy years shall not be numbered less; therefore, fear not what man can do, for God shall be with you forever and ever.

D&C 123:2
And also of all the property and amount of damages which they have sustained, both of character and personal injuries, ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as real property;

D&C 123:3
And also the names of all persons that have had a hand in their oppressions, ass=hlgree>as far ass=hlgree>as they can get hold of them and find them out.

D&C 123:5
And all that are in the magazines, and in the encyclopediass=hlblue>as, and all the libelous histories that are published, and are writing, and by whom, and present the whole concatenation of diabolical rascality and nefarious and murderous impositions that have been practiced upon this people--

D&C 123:6
That we may not only publish to all the world, but present them to the heads of government in all their dark and hellish hue, ass=hlgree>as the last effort which is enjoined on us by our Heavenly Father, before we can fully and completely claim that promise which shall call him forth from his hiding place; and also that the whole nation may be left without excuse before he can send forth the power of his mighty arm.

D&C 123:7
It is an imperative duty that we owe to God, to angels, with whom we shall be brought to stand, and also to ourselves, to our wives and children, who have been made to bow down with grief, sorrow, and care, under the most damning hand of murder, tyranny, and oppression, supported and urged on and upheld by the influence of that spirit which hath so strongly riveted the creeds of the fathers, who have inherited lies, upon the hearts of the children, and filled the world with confusion, and hass=hlblue>as been growing stronger and stronger, and is now the very mainspring of all corruption, and the whole earth groans under the weight of its iniquity.

D&C 123:10
Which dark and blackening deeds are enough to make hell itself shudder, and to stand aghast and pale, and the hands of the very devil to tremble and palsy.

D&C 123:13
Therefore, that we should waste and wear out our lives in bringing to light all the hidden things of darkness, wherein we know them; and they are truly manifest from heaven--

D&C 123:15
Let no man count them ass=hlgree>as small things; for there is much which lieth in futurity, pertaining to the saints, which depends upon these things.

D&C 123:17
Therefore, dearly beloved brethren, let us cheerfully do all things that lie in our power; and then may we stand still, with the utmost ass=hlblue>assurance, to see the salvation of God, and for his arm to be revealed.

D&C 124:1
Verily, thus saith the Lord unto you, my servant Joseph Smith, I am well pleased with your offering and acknowledgments, which you have made; for unto this end have I raised you up, that I might show forth my wisdom through the weak things of the earth.

D&C 124:6
For, behold, I am about to call upon them to give heed to the light and glory of Zion, for the set time hass=hlblue>as come to favor her.

D&C 124:7
Call ye, therefore, upon them with loud proclamation, and with your testimony, fearing them not, for they are ass=hlgree>as grass, and all their glory ass=hlgree>as the flower thereof which soon falleth, that they may be left also without excuse--

D&C 124:8
And that I may visit them in the day of visitation, when I shall unveil the face of my covering, to appoint the portion of the oppressor among hypocrites, where there is gnashing of teeth, if they reject my servants and my testimony which I have revealed unto them.

D&C 124:12
And again, verily I say unto you, let my servant Robert B. Thompson help you to write this proclamation, for I am well pleased with him, and that he should be with you;

D&C 124:18
And again, I say unto you that it is my will that my servant Lyman Wight should continue in preaching for Zion, in the spirit of meekness, confessing me before the world; and I will bear him up ass=hlgree>as on eagles' wings; and he shall beget glory and honor to himself and unto my name.

D&C 124:19
That when he shall finish his work I may receive him unto myself, even ass=hlgree>as I did my servant David Patten, who is with me at this time, and also my servant Edward Partridge, and also my aged servant Joseph Smith, Sen., who sitteth with Abraham at his right hand, and blessed and holy is he, for he is mine.

D&C 124:20
And again, verily I say unto you, my servant George Miller is without guile; he may be trusted because of the integrity of his heart; and for the love which he hass=hlblue>as to my testimony I, the Lord, love him.

D&C 124:22
Let my servant George, and my servant Lyman, and my servant John Snider, and others, build a house unto my name, such a one ass=hlgree>as my servant Joseph shall show unto them, upon the place which he shall show unto them also.

D&C 124:27
And with iron, with copper, and with brass, and with zinc, and with all your precious things of the earth; and build a house to my name, for the Most High to dwell therein.

D&C 124:28
For there is not a place found on earth that he may come to and restore again that which wass=hlblue>as lost unto you, or which he hath taken away, even the fulness of the priesthood.

D&C 124:32
But behold, at the end of this appointment your baptisms for your dead shall not be acceptable unto me; and if you do not these things at the end of the appointment ye shall be rejected ass=hlgree>as a church, with your dead, saith the Lord your God.

D&C 124:33
For verily I say unto you, that after you have had sufficient time to build a house to me, wherein the ordinance of baptizing for the dead belongeth, and for which the same wass=hlblue>as instituted from before the foundation of the world, your baptisms for your dead cannot be acceptable unto me;

D&C 124:37
And again, verily I say unto you, how shall your washings be acceptable unto me, except ye perform them in a house which you have built to my name?

D&C 124:38
For, for this cause I commanded Moses that he should build a tabernacle, that they should bear it with them in the wilderness, and to build a house in the land of promise, that those ordinances might be revealed which had been hid from before the world wass=hlblue>as.

D&C 124:39
Therefore, verily I say unto you, that your anointings, and your washings, and your baptisms for the dead, and your solemn ass=hlblue>assemblies, and your memorials for your sacrifices by the sons of Levi, and for your oracles in your most holy places wherein you receive conversations, and your statutes and judgments, for the beginning of the revelations and foundation of Zion, and for the glory, honor, and endowment of all her municipals, are ordained by the ordinance of my holy house, which my people are always commanded to build unto my holy name.

D&C 124:47
And it shall come to pass that if you build a house unto my name, and do not do the things that I say, I will not perform the oath which I make unto you, neither fulfil the promises which ye expect at my hands, saith the Lord.

D&C 124:49
Verily, verily, I say unto you, that when I give a commandment to any of the sons of men to do a work unto my name, and those sons of men go with all their might and with all they have to perform that work, and cease not their diligence, and their enemies come upon them and hinder them from performing that work, behold, it behooveth me to require that work no more at the hands of those sons of men, but to accept of their offerings.

D&C 124:50
And the iniquity and transgression of my holy laws and commandments I will visit upon the heads of those who hindered my work, unto the third and fourth generation, so long ass=hlgree>as they repent not, and hate me, saith the Lord God.

D&C 124:52
And I will answer judgment, wrath, and indignation, wailing, and anguish, and gnashing of teeth upon their heads, unto the third and fourth generation, so long ass=hlgree>as they repent not, and hate me, saith the Lord your God.

D&C 124:56
And now I say unto you, ass=hlgree>as pertaining to my boarding house which I have commanded you to build for the boarding of strangers, let it be built unto my name, and let my name be named upon it, and let my servant Joseph and his house have place therein, from generation to generation.

D&C 124:58
And ass=hlgree>as I said unto Abraham concerning the kindreds of the earth, even so I say unto my servant Joseph: In thee and in thy seed shall the kindred of the earth be blessed.

D&C 124:61
That he may receive also the counsel from those whom I have set to be ass=hlgree>as plants of renown, and ass=hlgree>as watchmen upon her walls.

D&C 124:67
And they shall not be permitted to receive any man, ass=hlgree>as a stockholder in this house, except the same shall pay his stock into their hands at the time he receives stock;

D&C 124:69
And if any pay stock into their hands it shall be for stock in that house, for himself, and for his generation after him, from generation to generation, so long ass=hlgree>as he and his heirs shall hold that stock, and do not sell or convey the stock away out of their hands by their own free will and act, if you will do my will, saith the Lord your God.

D&C 124:72
Verily I say unto you, let my servant Joseph pay stock into their hands for the building of that house, ass=hlgree>as seemeth him good; but my servant Joseph cannot pay over fifteen thousand dollars stock in that house, nor under fifty dollars; neither can any other man, saith the Lord.

D&C 124:73
And there are others also who wish to know my will concerning them, for they have ass=hlblue>asked it at my hands.

D&C 124:75
And let him lift up his voice long and loud, in the midst of the people, to plead the cause of the poor and the needy; and let him not fail, neither let his heart faint; and I will accept of his offerings, for they shall not be unto me ass=hlgree>as the offerings of Cain, for he shall be mine, saith the Lord.

D&C 124:77
Verily I say unto you, let my servant Hyrum put stock into that house ass=hlgree>as seemeth him good, for himself and his generation after him, from generation to generation.

D&C 124:80
Let my servant William Marks pay stock into that house, ass=hlgree>as seemeth him good, for himself and his generation, from generation to generation.

D&C 124:81
Let my servant Henry G. Sherwood pay stock into that house, ass=hlgree>as seemeth him good, for himself and his seed after him, from generation to generation.

D&C 124:83
If he will do my will let him not take his family unto the eastern lands, even unto Kirtland; nevertheless, I, the Lord, will build up Kirtland, but I, the Lord, have a scourge prepared for the inhabitants thereof.

D&C 124:84
And with my servant Almon Babbitt, there are many things with which I am not pleased; behold, he ass=hlblue>aspireth to establish his counsel instead of the counsel which I have ordained, even that of the Presidency of my Church; and he setteth up a golden calf for the worship of my people.

D&C 124:85
Let no man go from this place who hass=hlblue>as come here essaying to keep my commandments.

D&C 124:87
Therefore, let my servant William put his trust in me, and cease to fear concerning his family, because of the sickness of the land. If ye love me, keep my commandments; and the sickness of the land shall redound to your glory.

D&C 124:88
Let my servant William go and proclaim my everlasting gospel with a loud voice, and with great joy, ass=hlgree>as he shall be moved upon by my Spirit, unto the inhabitants of Warsaw, and also unto the inhabitants of Carthage, and also unto the inhabitants of Burlington, and also unto the inhabitants of Madison, and await patiently and diligently for further instructions at my general conference, saith the Lord.

D&C 124:91
And again, verily I say unto you, let my servant William be appointed, ordained, and anointed, ass=hlgree>as counselor unto my servant Joseph, in the room of my servant Hyrum, that my servant Hyrum may take the office of Priesthood and Patriarch, which wass=hlblue>as appointed unto him by his father, by blessing and also by right;

D&C 124:94
And from this time forth I appoint unto him that he may be a prophet, and a seer, and a revelator unto my church, ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as my servant Joseph;

D&C 124:95
That he may act in concert also with my servant Joseph; and that he shall receive counsel from my servant Joseph, who shall show unto him the keys whereby he may ass=hlblue>ask and receive, and be crowned with the same blessing, and glory, and honor, and priesthood, and gifts of the priesthood, that once were put upon him that wass=hlblue>as my servant Oliver Cowdery;

D&C 124:97
Let my servant William Law also receive the keys by which he may ass=hlblue>ask and receive blessings; let him be humble before me, and be without guile, and he shall receive of my Spirit, even the Comforter, which shall manifest unto him the truth of all things, and shall give him, in the very hour, what he shall say.

D&C 124:98
And these signs shall follow him-- he shall heal the sick, he shall cast out devils, and shall be delivered from those who would administer unto him deadly poison;

D&C 124:99
And he shall be led in paths where the poisonous serpent cannot lay hold upon his heel, and he shall mount up in the imagination of his thoughts ass=hlgree>as upon eagles' wings.

D&C 124:101
Therefore, let my servant William cry aloud and spare not, with joy and rejoicing, and with hosannass=hlblue>as to him that sitteth upon the throne forever and ever, saith the Lord your God.

D&C 124:106
And in all his journeyings let him lift up his voice ass=hlgree>as with the sound of a trump, and warn the inhabitants of the earth to flee the wrath to come.

D&C 124:107
Let him ass=hlblue>assist my servant Joseph, and also let my servant William Law ass=hlblue>assist my servant Joseph, in making a solemn proclamation unto the kings of the earth, even ass=hlgree>as I have before said unto you.

D&C 124:108
If my servant Sidney will do my will, let him not remove his family unto the eastern lands, but let him change their habitation, even ass=hlgree>as I have said.

D&C 124:114
Let him therefore abase himself that he may be exalted. Even so. Amen.

D&C 124:115
And again, verily I say unto you, if my servant Robert D. Foster will obey my voice, let him build a house for my servant Joseph, according to the contract which he hass=hlblue>as made with him, ass=hlgree>as the door shall be open to him from time to time.

D&C 124:116
And let him repent of all his folly, and clothe himself with charity; and cease to do evil, and lay ass=hlblue>aside all his hard speeches;

D&C 124:121
And again, verily I say unto you, let the quorum of the Nauvoo House have a just recompense of wages for all their labors which they do in building the Nauvoo House; and let their wages be ass=hlgree>as shall be agreed among themselves, ass=hlgree>as pertaining to the price thereof.

D&C 124:132
Namely, Samuel Bent, Henry G. Sherwood, George W. Harris, Charles C. Rich, Thomass=hlblue>as Grover, Newel Knight, David Dort, Dunbar Wilson-- Seymour Brunson I have taken unto myself; no man taketh his priesthood, but another may be appointed unto the same priesthood in his stead; and verily I say unto you, let my servant Aaron Johnson be ordained unto this calling in his stead-- David Fullmer, Alpheus Cutler, William Huntington.

D&C 124:136
I give unto him Amasa Lyman and Noah Packard for counselors, that they may preside over the quorum of high priests of my church, saith the Lord.

D&C 124:140
The difference between this quorum and the quorum of elders is that one is to travel continually, and the other is to preside over the churches from time to time; the one hass=hlblue>as the responsibility of presiding from time to time, and the other hass=hlblue>as no responsibility of presiding, saith the Lord your God.

D&C 125:4
And let all those who come from the east, and the west, and the north, and the south, that have desires to dwell therein, take up their inheritance in the same, ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as in the city of Nashville, or in the city of Nauvoo, and in all the stakes which I have appointed, saith the Lord.

D&C 126:1
Dear and well-beloved brother, Brigham Young, verily thus saith the Lord unto you: My servant Brigham, it is no more required at your hand to leave your family ass=hlgree>as in times past, for your offering is acceptable to me.

D&C 127:1
Forasmuch ass=hlgree>as the Lord hass=hlblue>as revealed unto me that my enemies, both in Missouri and this State, were again in the pursuit of me; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as they pursue me without a cause, and have not the least shadow or coloring of justice or right on their side in the getting up of their prosecutions against me; and inasmuch ass=hlgree>as their pretensions are all founded in falsehood of the blackest dye, I have thought it expedient and wisdom in me to leave the place for a short season, for my own safety and the safety of this people. I would say to all those with whom I have business, that I have left my affairs with agents and clerks who will transact all business in a prompt and proper manner, and will see that all my debts are canceled in due time, by turning out property, or otherwise, ass=hlgree>as the case may require, or ass=hlgree>as the circumstances may admit of. When I learn that the storm is fully blown over, then I will return to you again.

D&C 127:2
And ass=hlgree>as for the perils which I am called to pass through, they seem but a small thing to me, ass=hlgree>as the envy and wrath of man have been my common lot all the days of my life; and for what cause it seems mysterious, unless I wass=hlblue>as ordained from before the foundation of the world for some good end, or bad, ass=hlgree>as you may choose to call it. Judge ye for yourselves. God knoweth all these things, whether it be good or bad. But nevertheless, deep water is what I am wont to swim in. It all hass=hlblue>as become a second nature to me; and I feel, like Paul, to glory in tribulation; for to this day hass=hlblue>as the God of my fathers delivered me out of them all, and will deliver me from henceforth; for behold, and lo, I shall triumph over all my enemies, for the Lord God hath spoken it.

D&C 127:4
And again, verily thus saith the Lord: Let the work of my temple, and all the works which I have appointed unto you, be continued on and not cease; and let your diligence, and your perseverance, and patience, and your works be redoubled, and you shall in nowise lose your reward, saith the Lord of Hosts. And if they persecute you, so persecuted they the prophets and righteous men that were before you. For all this there is a reward in heaven.

D&C 127:10
I will say to all the saints, that I desired, with exceedingly great desire, to have addressed them from the stand on the subject of baptism for the dead, on the following Sabbath. But inasmuch ass=hlgree>as it is out of my power to do so, I will write the word of the Lord from time to time, on that subject, and send it to you by mail, ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as many other things.

D&C 127:11
I now close my letter for the present, for the want of more time; for the enemy is on the alert, and ass=hlgree>as the Savior said, the prince of this world cometh, but he hath nothing in me.

D&C 128:1
ass=hlgree>As I stated to you in my letter before I left my place, that I would write to you from time to time and give you information in relation to many subjects, I now resume the subject of the baptism for the dead, ass=hlgree>as that subject seems to occupy my mind, and press itself upon my feelings the strongest, since I have been pursued by my enemies.

D&C 128:2
I wrote a few words of revelation to you concerning a recorder. I have had a few additional views in relation to this matter, which I now certify. That is, it wass=hlblue>as declared in my former letter that there should be a recorder, who should be eye-witness, and also to hear with his ears, that he might make a record of a truth before the Lord.

D&C 128:4
Then, let there be a general recorder, to whom these other records can be handed, being attended with certificates over their own signatures, certifying that the record they have made is true. Then the general church recorder can enter the record on the general church book, with the certificates and all the attending witnesses, with his own statement that he verily believes the above statement and records to be true, from his knowledge of the general character and appointment of those men by the church. And when this is done on the general church book, the record shall be just ass=hlgree>as holy, and shall answer the ordinance just the same ass=hlgree>as if he had seen with his eyes and heard with his ears, and made a record of the same on the general church book.

D&C 128:6
And further, I want you to remember that John the Revelator wass=hlblue>as contemplating this very subject in relation to the dead, when he declared, ass=hlgree>as you will find recorded in Revelation 20:12-- And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened; and another book wass=hlblue>as opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

D&C 128:7
You will discover in this quotation that the books were opened; and another book wass=hlblue>as opened, which wass=hlblue>as the book of life; but the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works; consequently, the books spoken of must be the books which contained the record of their works, and refer to the records which are kept on the earth. And the book which wass=hlblue>as the book of life is the record which is kept in heaven; the principle agreeing precisely with the doctrine which is commanded you in the revelation contained in the letter which I wrote to you previous to my leaving my place-- that in all your recordings it may be recorded in heaven.

D&C 128:8
Now, the nature of this ordinance consists in the power of the priesthood, by the revelation of Jesus Christ, wherein it is granted that whatsoever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatsoever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Or, in other words, taking a different view of the translation, whatsoever you record on earth shall be recorded in heaven, and whatsoever you do not record on earth shall not be recorded in heaven; for out of the books shall your dead be judged, according to their own works, whether they themselves have attended to the ordinances in their own propria persona, or by the means of their own agents, according to the ordinance which God hass=hlblue>as prepared for their salvation from before the foundation of the world, according to the records which they have kept concerning their dead.

D&C 128:9
It may seem to some to be a very bold doctrine that we talk of-- a power which records or binds on earth and binds in heaven. Nevertheless, in all ages of the world, whenever the Lord hass=hlblue>as given a dispensation of the priesthood to any man by actual revelation, or any set of men, this power hass=hlblue>as always been given. Hence, whatsoever those men did in authority, in the name of the Lord, and did it truly and faithfully, and kept a proper and faithful record of the same, it became a law on earth and in heaven, and could not be annulled, according to the decrees of the great Jehovah. This is a faithful saying. Who can hear it?

D&C 128:11
Now the great and grand secret of the whole matter, and the summum bonum of the whole subject that is lying before us, consists in obtaining the powers of the Holy Priesthood. For him to whom these keys are given there is no difficulty in obtaining a knowledge of facts in relation to the salvation of the children of men, both ass=hlgree>as well for the dead ass=hlgree>as for the living.

D&C 128:12
Herein is glory and honor, and immortality and eternal life-- The ordinance of baptism by water, to be immersed therein in order to answer to the likeness of the dead, that one principle might accord with the other; to be immersed in the water and come forth out of the water is in the likeness of the resurrection of the dead in coming forth out of their graves; hence, this ordinance wass=hlblue>as instituted to form a relationship with the ordinance of baptism for the dead, being in likeness of the dead.

D&C 128:13
Consequently, the baptismal font wass=hlblue>as instituted ass=hlgree>as a similitude of the grave, and wass=hlblue>as commanded to be in a place underneath where the living are wont to ass=hlblue>assemble, to show forth the living and the dead, and that all things may have their likeness, and that they may accord one with another-- that which is earthly conforming to that which is heavenly, ass=hlgree>as Paul hath declared, 1 Corinthians 15:46, 47, and 48:

D&C 128:14
Howbeit that wass=hlblue>as not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven. ass=hlgree>As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy; and ass=hlgree>as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And ass=hlgree>as are the records on the earth in relation to your dead, which are truly made out, so also are the records in heaven. This, therefore, is the sealing and binding power, and, in one sense of the word, the keys of the kingdom, which consist in the key of knowledge.

D&C 128:15
And now, my dearly beloved brethren and sisters, let me ass=hlblue>assure you that these are principles in relation to the dead and the living that cannot be lightly passed over, ass=hlgree>as pertaining to our salvation. For their salvation is necessary and essential to our salvation, ass=hlgree>as Paul says concerning the fathers-- that they without us cannot be made perfect-- neither can we without our dead be made perfect.

D&C 128:17
And again, in connection with this quotation I will give you a quotation from one of the prophets, who had his eye fixed on the restoration of the priesthood, the glories to be revealed in the last days, and in an especial manner this most glorious of all subjects belonging to the everlasting gospel, namely, the baptism for the dead; for Malachi says, last chapter, verses 5th and 6th: Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

D&C 128:18
I might have rendered a plainer translation to this, but it is sufficiently plain to suit my purpose ass=hlgree>as it stands. It is sufficient to know, in this case, that the earth will be smitten with a curse unless there is a welding link of some kind or other between the fathers and the children, upon some subject or other-- and behold what is that subject? It is the baptism for the dead. For we without them cannot be made perfect; neither can they without us be made perfect. Neither can they nor we be made perfect without those who have died in the gospel also; for it is necessary in the ushering in of the dispensation of the fulness of times, which dispensation is now beginning to usher in, that a whole and complete and perfect union, and welding together of dispensations, and keys, and powers, and glories should take place, and be revealed from the days of Adam even to the present time. And not only this, but those things which never have been revealed from the foundation of the world, but have been kept hid from the wise and prudent, shall be revealed unto babes and sucklings in this, the dispensation of the fulness of times.

D&C 128:19
Now, what do we hear in the gospel which we have received? A voice of gladness! A voice of mercy from heaven; and a voice of truth out of the earth; glad tidings for the dead; a voice of gladness for the living and the dead; glad tidings of great joy. How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of those that bring glad tidings of good things, and that say unto Zion: Behold, thy God reigneth! ass=hlgree>As the dews of Carmel, so shall the knowledge of God descend upon them!

D&C 128:20
And again, what do we hear? Glad tidings from Cumorah! Moroni, an angel from heaven, declaring the fulfilment of the prophets-- the book to be revealed. A voice of the Lord in the wilderness of Fayette, Seneca county, declaring the three witnesses to bear record of the book! The voice of Michael on the banks of the Susquehanna, detecting the devil when he appeared ass=hlgree>as an angel of light! The voice of Peter, James, and John in the wilderness between Harmony, Susquehanna county, and Colesville, Broome county, on the Susquehanna river, declaring themselves ass=hlgree>as possessing the keys of the kingdom, and of the dispensation of the fulness of times!

D&C 128:22
Brethren, shall we not go on in so great a cause? Go forward and not backward. Courage, brethren; and on, on to the victory! Let your hearts rejoice, and be exceedingly glad. Let the earth break forth into singing. Let the dead speak forth anthems of eternal praise to the King Immanuel, who hath ordained, before the world wass=hlblue>as, that which would enable us to redeem them out of their prison; for the prisoners shall go free.

D&C 128:23
Let the mountains shout for joy, and all ye valleys cry aloud; and all ye seass=hlblue>as and dry lands tell the wonders of your Eternal King! And ye rivers, and brooks, and rills, flow down with gladness. Let the woods and all the trees of the field praise the Lord; and ye solid rocks weep for joy! And let the sun, moon, and the morning stars sing together, and let all the sons of God shout for joy! And let the eternal creations declare his name forever and ever! And again I say, how glorious is the voice we hear from heaven, proclaiming in our ears, glory, and salvation, and honor, and immortality, and eternal life; kingdoms, principalities, and powers!

D&C 128:24
Behold, the great day of the Lord is at hand; and who can abide the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner's fire, and like fuller's soap; and he shall sit ass=hlgree>as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them ass=hlgree>as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. Let us, therefore, ass=hlgree>as a church and a people, and ass=hlgree>as Latter-day Saints, offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness; and let us present in his holy temple, when it is finished, a book containing the records of our dead, which shall be worthy of all acceptation.

D&C 128:25
Brethren, I have many things to say to you on the subject; but shall now close for the present, and continue the subject another time. I am, ass=hlgree>as ever, your humble servant and never deviating friend,

D&C 129:2
For instance, Jesus said: Handle me and see, for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, ass=hlgree>as ye see me have.

D&C 129:4
When a messenger comes saying he hass=hlblue>as a message from God, offer him your hand and request him to shake hands with you.

D&C 129:7
ass=hlblue>Ask him to shake hands with you, but he will not move, because it is contrary to the order of heaven for a just man to deceive; but he will still deliver his message.

D&C 129:8
If it be the devil ass=hlgree>as an angel of light, when you ass=hlblue>ask him to shake hands he will offer you his hand, and you will not feel anything; you may therefore detect him.

D&C 130:1
When the Savior shall appear we shall see him ass=hlgree>as he is. We shall see that he is a man like ourselves.

D&C 130:7
But they reside in the presence of God, on a globe like a sea of glass and fire, where all things for their glory are manifest, past, present, and future, and are continually before the Lord.

D&C 130:13
It may probably arise through the slave question. This a voice declared to me, while I wass=hlblue>as praying earnestly on the subject, December 25th, 1832.

D&C 130:14
I wass=hlblue>as once praying very earnestly to know the time of the coming of the Son of Man, when I heard a voice repeat the following:

D&C 130:16
I wass=hlblue>as left thus, without being able to decide whether this coming referred to the beginning of the millennium or to some previous appearing, or whether I should die and thus see his face.

D&C 130:22
The Father hass=hlblue>as a body of flesh and bones ass=hlgree>as tangible ass=hlgree>as man's; the Son also; but the Holy Ghost hass=hlblue>as not a body of flesh and bones, but is a personage of Spirit. Were it not so, the Holy Ghost could not dwell in us.

D&C 131:2
And in order to obtain the highest, a man must enter into this order of the priesthood [meaning the new and everlasting covenant of marriage];

D&C 131:4
He may enter into the other, but that is the end of his kingdom; he cannot have an increase.

D&C 131:7
There is no such thing ass=hlgree>as immaterial matter. All spirit is matter, but it is more fine or pure, and can only be discerned by purer eyes;

D&C 132:1
Verily, thus saith the Lord unto you my servant Joseph, that inasmuch ass=hlgree>as you have inquired of my hand to know and understand wherein I, the Lord, justified my servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, ass=hlgree>as also Moses, David and Solomon, my servants, ass=hlgree>as touching the principle and doctrine of their having many wives and concubines--

D&C 132:2
Behold, and lo, I am the Lord thy God, and will answer thee ass=hlgree>as touching this matter.

D&C 132:4
For behold, I reveal unto you a new and an everlasting covenant; and if ye abide not that covenant, then are ye damned; for no one can reject this covenant and be permitted to enter into my glory.

D&C 132:5
For all who will have a blessing at my hands shall abide the law which wass=hlblue>as appointed for that blessing, and the conditions thereof, ass=hlgree>as were instituted from before the foundation of the world.

D&C 132:6
And ass=hlgree>as pertaining to the new and everlasting covenant, it wass=hlblue>as instituted for the fulness of my glory; and he that receiveth a fulness thereof must and shall abide the law, or he shall be damned, saith the Lord God.

D&C 132:7
And verily I say unto you, that the conditions of this law are these: All covenants, contracts, bonds, obligations, oaths, vows, performances, connections, ass=hlblue>associations, or expectations, that are not made and entered into and sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise, of him who is anointed, both ass=hlgree>as well for time and for all eternity, and that too most holy, by revelation and commandment through the medium of mine anointed, whom I have appointed on the earth to hold this power (and I have appointed unto my servant Joseph to hold this power in the last days, and there is never but one on the earth at a time on whom this power and the keys of this priesthood are conferred), are of no efficacy, virtue, or force in and after the resurrection from the dead; for all contracts that are not made unto this end have an end when men are dead.

D&C 132:11
And will I appoint unto you, saith the Lord, except it be by law, even ass=hlgree>as I and my Father ordained unto you, before the world wass=hlblue>as?

D&C 132:15
Therefore, if a man marry him a wife in the world, and he marry her not by me nor by my word, and he covenant with her so long ass=hlgree>as he is in the world and she with him, their covenant and marriage are not of force when they are dead, and when they are out of the world; therefore, they are not bound by any law when they are out of the world.

D&C 132:18
And again, verily I say unto you, if a man marry a wife, and make a covenant with her for time and for all eternity, if that covenant is not by me or by my word, which is my law, and is not sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise, through him whom I have anointed and appointed unto this power, then it is not valid neither of force when they are out of the world, because they are not joined by me, saith the Lord, neither by my word; when they are out of the world it cannot be received there, because the angels and the gods are appointed there, by whom they cannot pass; they cannot, therefore, inherit my glory; for my house is a house of order, saith the Lord God.

D&C 132:19
And again, verily I say unto you, if a man marry a wife by my word, which is my law, and by the new and everlasting covenant, and it is sealed unto them by the Holy Spirit of promise, by him who is anointed, unto whom I have appointed this power and the keys of this priesthood; and it shall be said unto them-- Ye shall come forth in the first resurrection; and if it be after the first resurrection, in the next resurrection; and shall inherit thrones, kingdoms, principalities, and powers, dominions, all heights and depths-- then shall it be written in the Lamb's Book of Life, that he shall commit no murder whereby to shed innocent blood, and if ye abide in my covenant, and commit no murder whereby to shed innocent blood, it shall be done unto them in all things whatsoever my servant hath put upon them, in time, and through all eternity; and shall be of full force when they are out of the world; and they shall pass by the angels, and the gods, which are set there, to their exaltation and glory in all things, ass=hlgree>as hath been sealed upon their heads, which glory shall be a fulness and a continuation of the seeds forever and ever.

D&C 132:20
Then shall they be gods, because they have no end; therefore shall they be from everlasting to everlasting, because they continue; then shall they be above all, because all things are subject unto them. Then shall they be gods, because they have all power, and the angels are subject unto them.

D&C 132:26
Verily, verily, I say unto you, if a man marry a wife according to my word, and they are sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise, according to mine appointment, and he or she shall commit any sin or transgression of the new and everlasting covenant whatever, and all manner of blasphemies, and if they commit no murder wherein they shed innocent blood, yet they shall come forth in the first resurrection, and enter into their exaltation; but they shall be destroyed in the flesh, and shall be delivered unto the buffetings of Satan unto the day of redemption, saith the Lord God.

D&C 132:27
The blasphemy against the Holy Ghost, which shall not be forgiven in the world nor out of the world, is in that ye commit murder wherein ye shed innocent blood, and ass=hlblue>assent unto my death, after ye have received my new and everlasting covenant, saith the Lord God; and he that abideth not this law can in nowise enter into my glory, but shall be damned, saith the Lord.

D&C 132:28
I am the Lord thy God, and will give unto thee the law of my Holy Priesthood, ass=hlgree>as wass=hlblue>as ordained by me and my Father before the world wass=hlblue>as.

D&C 132:30
Abraham received promises concerning his seed, and of the fruit of his loins-- from whose loins ye are, namely, my servant Joseph-- which were to continue so long ass=hlgree>as they were in the world; and ass=hlgree>as touching Abraham and his seed, out of the world they should continue; both in the world and out of the world should they continue ass=hlgree>as innumerable ass=hlgree>as the stars; or, if ye were to count the sand upon the seashore ye could not number them.

D&C 132:31
This promise is yours also, because ye are of Abraham, and the promise wass=hlblue>as made unto Abraham; and by this law is the continuation of the works of my Father, wherein he glorifieth himself.

D&C 132:34
God commanded Abraham, and Sarah gave Hagar to Abraham to wife. And why did she do it? Because this wass=hlblue>as the law; and from Hagar sprang many people. This, therefore, wass=hlblue>as fulfilling, among other things, the promises.

D&C 132:35
Wass=hlblue>as Abraham, therefore, under condemnation? Verily I say unto you, Nay; for I, the Lord, commanded it.

D&C 132:36
Abraham wass=hlblue>as commanded to offer his son Isaac; nevertheless, it wass=hlblue>as written: Thou shalt not kill. Abraham, however, did not refuse, and it wass=hlblue>as accounted unto him for righteousness.

D&C 132:37
Abraham received concubines, and they bore him children; and it wass=hlblue>as accounted unto him for righteousness, because they were given unto him, and he abode in my law; ass=hlgree>as Isaac also and Jacob did none other things than that which they were commanded; and because they did none other things than that which they were commanded, they have entered into their exaltation, according to the promises, and sit upon thrones, and are not angels but are gods.

D&C 132:38
David also received many wives and concubines, and also Solomon and Moses my servants, ass=hlgree>as also many others of my servants, from the beginning of creation until this time; and in nothing did they sin save in those things which they received not of me.

D&C 132:39
David's wives and concubines were given unto him of me, by the hand of Nathan, my servant, and others of the prophets who had the keys of this power; and in none of these things did he sin against me save in the case of Uriah and his wife; and, therefore he hath fallen from his exaltation, and received his portion; and he shall not inherit them out of the world, for I gave them unto another, saith the Lord.

D&C 132:40
I am the Lord thy God, and I gave unto thee, my servant Joseph, an appointment, and restore all things. ass=hlblue>Ask what ye will, and it shall be given unto you according to my word.

D&C 132:41
And ass=hlgree>as ye have ass=hlblue>asked concerning adultery, verily, verily, I say unto you, if a man receiveth a wife in the new and everlasting covenant, and if she be with another man, and I have not appointed unto her by the holy anointing, she hath committed adultery and shall be destroyed.

D&C 132:42
If she be not in the new and everlasting covenant, and she be with another man, she hass=hlblue>as committed adultery.

D&C 132:43
And if her husband be with another woman, and he wass=hlblue>as under a vow, he hath broken his vow and hath committed adultery.

D&C 132:50
Behold, I have seen your sacrifices, and will forgive all your sins; I have seen your sacrifices in obedience to that which I have told you. Go, therefore, and I make a way for your escape, ass=hlgree>as I accepted the offering of Abraham of his son Isaac.

D&C 132:51
Verily, I say unto you: A commandment I give unto mine handmaid, Emma Smith, your wife, whom I have given unto you, that she stay herself and partake not of that which I commanded you to offer unto her; for I did it, saith the Lord, to prove you all, ass=hlgree>as I did Abraham, and that I might require an offering at your hand, by covenant and sacrifice.

D&C 132:55
But if she will not abide this commandment, then shall my servant Joseph do all things for her, even ass=hlgree>as he hath said; and I will bless him and multiply him and give unto him an hundred-fold in this world, of fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, houses and lands, wives and children, and crowns of eternal lives in the eternal worlds.

D&C 132:56
And again, verily I say, let mine handmaid forgive my servant Joseph his trespasses; and then shall she be forgiven her trespasses, wherein she hass=hlblue>as trespassed against me; and I, the Lord thy God, will bless her, and multiply her, and make her heart to rejoice.

D&C 132:57
And again, I say, let not my servant Joseph put his property out of his hands, lest an enemy come and destroy him; for Satan seeketh to destroy; for I am the Lord thy God, and he is my servant; and behold, and lo, I am with him, ass=hlgree>as I wass=hlblue>as with Abraham, thy father, even unto his exaltation and glory.

D&C 132:58
Now, ass=hlgree>as touching the law of the priesthood, there are many things pertaining thereunto.

D&C 132:59
Verily, if a man be called of my Father, ass=hlgree>as wass=hlblue>as 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.

D&C 132:61
And again, ass=hlgree>as pertaining to the law of the priesthood-- if any man espouse a virgin, and desire to espouse another, and the first give her consent, and if he espouse the second, and they are virgins, and have vowed to no other man, then is he justified; he cannot commit adultery for they are given unto him; for he cannot commit adultery with that that belongeth unto him and to no one else.

D&C 132:63
But if one or either of the ten virgins, after she is espoused, shall be with another man, she hass=hlblue>as committed adultery, and shall be destroyed; for they are given unto him to multiply and replenish the earth, according to my commandment, and to fulfil the promise which wass=hlblue>as given by my Father before the foundation of the world, and for their exaltation in the eternal worlds, that they may bear the souls of men; for herein is the work of my Father continued, that he may be glorified.

D&C 132:64
And again, verily, verily, I say unto you, if any man have a wife, who holds the keys of this power, and he teaches unto her the law of my priesthood, ass=hlgree>as pertaining to these things, then shall she believe and administer unto him, or she shall be destroyed, saith the Lord your God; for I will destroy her; for I will magnify my name upon all those who receive and abide in my law.

D&C 132:66
And now, ass=hlgree>as pertaining to this law, verily, verily, I say unto you, I will reveal more unto you, hereafter; therefore, let this suffice for the present. Behold, I am Alpha and Omega. Amen.

D&C 133:6
Call your solemn ass=hlblue>assemblies, and speak often one to another. And let every man call upon the name of the Lord.

D&C 133:7
Yea, verily I say unto you again, the time hass=hlblue>as come when the voice of the Lord is unto you: Go ye out of Babylon; gather ye out from among the nations, from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

D&C 133:15
But verily, thus saith the Lord, let not your flight be in haste, but let all things be prepared before you; and he that goeth, let him not look back lest sudden destruction shall come upon him.

D&C 133:22
And it shall be a voice ass=hlgree>as the voice of many waters, and ass=hlgree>as the voice of a great thunder, which shall break down the mountains, and the valleys shall not be found.

D&C 133:24
And the land of Jerusalem and the land of Zion shall be turned back into their own place, and the earth shall be like ass=hlgree>as it wass=hlblue>as in the days before it wass=hlblue>as divided.

D&C 133:27
And an highway shall be cast up in the midst of the great deep.

D&C 133:30
And they shall bring forth their rich treasures unto the children of Ephraim, my servants.

D&C 133:31
And the boundaries of the everlasting hills shall tremble at their presence.

D&C 133:33
And they shall be filled with songs of everlasting joy.

D&C 133:34
Behold, this is the blessing of the everlasting God upon the tribes of Israel, and the richer blessing upon the head of Ephraim and his fellows.

D&C 133:36
And now, verily saith the Lord, that these things might be known among you, O inhabitants of the earth, I have sent forth mine angel flying through the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel, who hath appeared unto some and hath committed it unto man, who shall appear unto many that dwell on the earth.

D&C 133:41
And it shall be answered upon their heads; for the presence of the Lord shall be ass=hlgree>as the melting fire that burneth, and ass=hlgree>as the fire which causeth the waters to boil.

D&C 133:45
For since the beginning of the world have not men heard nor perceived by the ear, neither hath any eye seen, O God, besides thee, how great things thou hast prepared for him that waiteth for thee.

D&C 133:51
And I have trampled them in my fury, and I did tread upon them in mine anger, and their blood have I sprinkled upon my garments, and stained all my raiment; for this wass=hlblue>as the day of vengeance which wass=hlblue>as in my heart.

D&C 133:52
And now the year of my redeemed is come; and they shall mention the loving kindness of their Lord, and all that he hass=hlblue>as bestowed upon them according to his goodness, and according to his loving kindness, forever and ever.

D&C 133:53
In all their afflictions he wass=hlblue>as afflicted. And the angel of his presence saved them; and in his love, and in his pity, he redeemed them, and bore them, and carried them all the days of old;

D&C 133:57
And for this cause, that men might be made partakers of the glories which were to be revealed, the Lord sent forth the fulness of his gospel, his everlasting covenant, reasoning in plainness and simplicity--

D&C 133:63
And upon them that hearken not to the voice of the Lord shall be fulfilled that which wass=hlblue>as written by the prophet Moses, that they should be cut off from among the people.

D&C 133:64
And also that which wass=hlblue>as written by the prophet Malachi: For, behold, the day cometh that shall burn ass=hlgree>as an oven, and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble; and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

D&C 133:67
When I called again there wass=hlblue>as none of you to answer; yet my arm wass=hlblue>as not shortened at all that I could not redeem, neither my power to deliver.

D&C 133:73
These shall go away into outer darkness, where there is weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth.

D&C 134:2
We believe that no government can exist in peace, except such laws are framed and held inviolate ass=hlgree>as will secure to each individual the free exercise of conscience, the right and control of property, and the protection of life.

D&C 134:3
We believe that all governments necessarily require civil officers and magistrates to enforce the laws of the same; and that such ass=hlgree>as will administer the law in equity and justice should be sought for and upheld by the voice of the people if a republic, or the will of the sovereign.

D&C 134:4
We believe that religion is instituted of God; and that men are amenable to him, and to him only, for the exercise of it, unless their religious opinions prompt them to infringe upon the rights and liberties of others; but we do not believe that human law hass=hlblue>as a right to interfere in prescribing rules of worship to bind the consciences of men, nor dictate forms for public or private devotion; that the civil magistrate should restrain crime, but never control conscience; should punish guilt, but never suppress the freedom of the soul.

D&C 134:5
We believe that all men are bound to sustain and uphold the respective governments in which they reside, while protected in their inherent and inalienable rights by the laws of such governments; and that sedition and rebellion are unbecoming every citizen thus protected, and should be punished accordingly; and that all governments have a right to enact such laws ass=hlgree>as in their own judgments are best calculated to secure the public interest; at the same time, however, holding sacred the freedom of conscience.

D&C 134:6
We believe that every man should be honored in his station, rulers and magistrates ass=hlgree>as such, being placed for the protection of the innocent and the punishment of the guilty; and that to the laws all men owe respect and deference, ass=hlgree>as without them peace and harmony would be supplanted by anarchy and terror; human laws being instituted for the express purpose of regulating our interests ass=hlgree>as individuals and nations, between man and man; and divine laws given of heaven, prescribing rules on spiritual concerns, for faith and worship, both to be answered by man to his Maker.

D&C 134:7
We believe that rulers, states, and governments have a right, and are bound to enact laws for the protection of all citizens in the free exercise of their religious belief; but we do not believe that they have a right in justice to deprive citizens of this privilege, or proscribe them in their opinions, so long ass=hlgree>as a regard and reverence are shown to the laws and such religious opinions do not justify sedition nor conspiracy.

D&C 134:8
We believe that the commission of crime should be punished according to the nature of the offense; that murder, treason, robbery, theft, and the breach of the general peace, in all respects, should be punished according to their criminality and their tendency to evil among men, by the laws of that government in which the offense is committed; and for the public peace and tranquility all men should step forward and use their ability in bringing offenders against good laws to punishment.

D&C 134:9
We do not believe it just to mingle religious influence with civil government, whereby one religious society is fostered and another proscribed in its spiritual privileges, and the individual rights of its members, ass=hlgree>as citizens, denied.

D&C 134:10
We believe that all religious societies have a right to deal with their members for disorderly conduct, according to the rules and regulations of such societies; provided that such dealings be for fellowship and good standing; but we do not believe that any religious society hass=hlblue>as authority to try men on the right of property or life, to take from them this world's goods, or to put them in jeopardy of either life or limb, or to inflict any physical punishment upon them. They can only excommunicate them from their society, and withdraw from them their fellowship.

D&C 134:11
We believe that men should appeal to the civil law for redress of all wrongs and grievances, where personal abuse is inflicted or the right of property or character infringed, where such laws exist ass=hlgree>as will protect the same; but we believe that all men are justified in defending themselves, their friends, and property, and the government, from the unlawful ass=hlblue>assaults and encroachments of all persons in times of exigency, where immediate appeal cannot be made to the laws, and relief afforded.

D&C 134:12
We believe it just to preach the gospel to the nations of the earth, and warn the righteous to save themselves from the corruption of the world; but we do not believe it right to interfere with bond-servants, neither preach the gospel to, nor baptize them contrary to the will and wish of their masters, nor to meddle with or influence them in the least to cause them to be dissatisfied with their situations in this life, thereby jeopardizing the lives of men; such interference we believe to be unlawful and unjust, and dangerous to the peace of every government allowing human beings to be held in servitude.

D&C 135:1
To seal the testimony of this book and the Book of Mormon, we announce the martyrdom of Joseph Smith the Prophet, and Hyrum Smith the Patriarch. They were shot in Carthage jail, on the 27th of June, 1844, about five o'clock p.m., by an armed mob-- painted black-- of from 150 to 200 persons. Hyrum wass=hlblue>as shot first and fell calmly, exclaiming: I am a dead man! Joseph leaped from the window, and wass=hlblue>as shot dead in the attempt, exclaiming: O Lord my God! They were both shot after they were dead, in a brutal manner, and both received four balls.

D&C 135:2
John Taylor and Willard Richards, two of the Twelve, were the only persons in the room at the time; the former wass=hlblue>as wounded in a savage manner with four balls, but hass=hlblue>as since recovered; the latter, through the providence of God, escaped, without even a hole in his robe.

D&C 135:3
Joseph Smith, the Prophet and Seer of the Lord, hass=hlblue>as done more, save Jesus only, for the salvation of men in this world, than any other man that ever lived in it. In the short space of twenty years, he hass=hlblue>as brought forth the Book of Mormon, which he translated by the gift and power of God, and hass=hlblue>as been the means of publishing it on two continents; hass=hlblue>as sent the fulness of the everlasting gospel, which it contained, to the four quarters of the earth; hass=hlblue>as brought forth the revelations and commandments which compose this book of Doctrine and Covenants, and many other wise documents and instructions for the benefit of the children of men; gathered many thousands of the Latter-day Saints, founded a great city, and left a fame and name that cannot be slain. He lived great, and he died great in the eyes of God and his people; and like most of the Lord's anointed in ancient times, hass=hlblue>as sealed his mission and his works with his own blood; and so hass=hlblue>as his brother Hyrum. In life they were not divided, and in death they were not separated!

D&C 135:4
When Joseph went to Carthage to deliver himself up to the pretended requirements of the law, two or three days previous to his ass=hlblue>assassination, he said: "I am going like a lamb to the slaughter; but I am calm ass=hlgree>as a summer's morning; I have a conscience void of offense towards God, and towards all men. I shall die innocent, and it shall yet be said of me-- he wass=hlblue>as murdered in cold blood."-- The same morning, after Hyrum had made ready to go-- shall it be said to the slaughter? yes, for so it wass=hlblue>as-- he read the following paragraph, near the close of the twelfth chapter of Ether, in the Book of Mormon, and turned down the leaf upon it:

D&C 135:5
And it came to pass that I prayed unto the Lord that he would give unto the Gentiles grace, that they might have charity. And it came to pass that the Lord said unto me: If they have not charity it mattereth not unto thee, thou hast been faithful; wherefore thy garments shall be made clean. And because thou hast seen thy weakness, thou shalt be made strong, even unto the sitting down in the place which I have prepared in the mansions of my Father. And now I ... bid farewell unto the Gentiles; yea, and also unto my brethren whom I love, until we shall meet before the judgment-seat of Christ, where all men shall know that my garments are not spotted with your blood. The testators are now dead, and their testament is in force.

D&C 135:6
Hyrum Smith wass=hlblue>as forty-four years old in February, 1844, and Joseph Smith wass=hlblue>as thirty-eight in December, 1843; and henceforward their names will be classed among the martyrs of religion; and the reader in every nation will be reminded that the Book of Mormon, and this book of Doctrine and Covenants of the church, cost the best blood of the nineteenth century to bring them forth for the salvation of a ruined world; and that if the fire can scathe a green tree for the glory of God, how easy it will burn up the dry trees to purify the vineyard of corruption. They lived for glory; they died for glory; and glory is their eternal reward. From age to age shall their names go down to posterity ass=hlgree>as gems for the sanctified.

D&C 135:7
They were innocent of any crime, ass=hlgree>as they had often been proved before, and were only confined in jail by the conspiracy of traitors and wicked men; and their innocent blood on the floor of Carthage jail is a broad seal affixed to "Mormonism" that cannot be rejected by any court on earth, and their innocent blood on the escutcheon of the State of Illinois, with the broken faith of the State ass=hlgree>as pledged by the governor, is a witness to the truth of the everlasting gospel that all the world cannot impeach; and their innocent blood on the banner of liberty, and on the magna charta of the United States, is an ambassador for the religion of Jesus Christ, that will touch the hearts of honest men among all nations; and their innocent blood, with the innocent blood of all the martyrs under the altar that John saw, will cry unto the Lord of Hosts till he avenges that blood on the earth. Amen.

D&C 136:7
Let each company, with their captains and presidents, decide how many can go next spring; then choose out a sufficient number of able-bodied and expert men, to take teams, seeds, and farming utensils, to go ass=hlgree>as pioneers to prepare for putting in spring crops.

D&C 136:9
Let each company prepare houses, and fields for raising grain, for those who are to remain behind this season; and this is the will of the Lord concerning his people.

D&C 136:12
Let my servants Ezra T. Benson and Erastus Snow organize a company.

D&C 136:14
Also, let my servants Amasa Lyman and George A. Smith organize a company.

D&C 136:17
Go thy way and do ass=hlgree>as I have told you, and fear not thine enemies; for they shall not have power to stop my work.

D&C 136:22
I am he who led the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; and my arm is stretched out in the last days, to save my people Israel.

D&C 136:23
Cease to contend one with another; cease to speak evil one of another.

D&C 136:24
Cease drunkenness; and let your words tend to edifying one another.

D&C 136:25
If thou borrowest of thy neighbor, thou shalt restore that which thou hast borrowed; and if thou canst not repay then go straightway and tell thy neighbor, lest he condemn thee.

D&C 136:26
If thou shalt find that which thy neighbor hass=hlblue>as lost, thou shalt make diligent search till thou shalt deliver it to him again.

D&C 136:27
Thou shalt be diligent in preserving what thou hast, that thou mayest be a wise steward; for it is the free gift of the Lord thy God, and thou art his steward.

D&C 136:30
Fear not thine enemies, for they are in mine hands and I will do my pleasure with them.

D&C 136:31
My people must be tried in all things, that they may be prepared to receive the glory that I have for them, even the glory of Zion; and he that will not bear chastisement is not worthy of my kingdom.

D&C 136:34
Thy brethren have rejected you and your testimony, even the nation that hass=hlblue>as driven you out;

D&C 136:38
Which foundation he did lay, and wass=hlblue>as faithful; and I took him to myself.

D&C 136:39
Many have marveled because of his death; but it wass=hlblue>as needful that he should seal his testimony with his blood, that he might be honored and the wicked might be condemned.

D&C 137:2
I saw the transcendent beauty of the gate through which the heirs of that kingdom will enter, which wass=hlblue>as like unto circling flames of fire;

D&C 137:3
Also the blazing throne of God, whereon wass=hlblue>as seated the Father and the Son.

D&C 137:5
I saw Father Adam and Abraham; and my father and my mother; my brother Alvin, that hass=hlblue>as long since slept;

D&C 137:6
And marveled how it wass=hlblue>as that he had obtained an inheritance in that kingdom, seeing that he had departed this life before the Lord had set his hand to gather Israel the second time, and had not been baptized for the remission of sins.

D&C 138:2
And reflecting upon the great atoning sacrifice that wass=hlblue>as made by the Son of God, for the redemption of the world;

D&C 138:5
While I wass=hlblue>as thus engaged, my mind reverted to the writings of the apostle Peter, to the primitive saints scattered abroad throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, and other parts of ass=hlblue>Asia, where the gospel had been preached after the crucifixion of the Lord.

D&C 138:6
I opened the Bible and read the third and fourth chapters of the first epistle of Peter, and ass=hlgree>as I read I wass=hlblue>as greatly impressed, more than I had ever been before, with the following passages:

D&C 138:9
"Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark wass=hlblue>as a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water." (1 Peter 3:18-20.)

D&C 138:10
"For for this cause wass=hlblue>as the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit." (1 Peter 4:6.)

D&C 138:11
ass=hlgree>As I pondered over these things which are written, the eyes of my understanding were opened, and the Spirit of the Lord rested upon me, and I saw the hosts of the dead, both small and great.

D&C 138:15
I beheld that they were filled with joy and gladness, and were rejoicing together because the day of their deliverance wass=hlblue>as at hand.

D&C 138:16
They were ass=hlblue>assembled awaiting the advent of the Son of God into the spirit world, to declare their redemption from the bands of death.

D&C 138:17
Their sleeping dust wass=hlblue>as to be restored unto its perfect frame, bone to his bone, and the sinews and the flesh upon them, the spirit and the body to be united never again to be divided, that they might receive a fulness of joy.

D&C 138:18
While this vast multitude waited and conversed, rejoicing in the hour of their deliverance from the chains of death, the Son of God appeared, declaring liberty to the captives who had been faithful;

D&C 138:19
And there he preached to them the everlasting gospel, the doctrine of the resurrection and the redemption of mankind from the fall, and from individual sins on conditions of repentance.

D&C 138:20
But unto the wicked he did not go, and among the ungodly and the unrepentant who had defiled themselves while in the flesh, his voice wass=hlblue>as not raised;

D&C 138:22
Where these were, darkness reigned, but among the righteous there wass=hlblue>as peace;

D&C 138:23
And the saints rejoiced in their redemption, and bowed the knee and acknowledged the Son of God ass=hlgree>as their Redeemer and Deliverer from death and the chains of hell.

D&C 138:25
I marveled, for I understood that the Savior spent about three years in his ministry among the Jews and those of the house of Israel, endeavoring to teach them the everlasting gospel and call them unto repentance;

D&C 138:27
But his ministry among those who were dead wass=hlblue>as limited to the brief time intervening between the crucifixion and his resurrection;

D&C 138:28
And I wondered at the words of Peter-- wherein he said that the Son of God preached unto the spirits in prison, who sometime were disobedient, when once the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah-- and how it wass=hlblue>as possible for him to preach to those spirits and perform the necessary labor among them in so short a time.

D&C 138:29
And ass=hlgree>as I wondered, my eyes were opened, and my understanding quickened, and I perceived that the Lord went not in person among the wicked and the disobedient who had rejected the truth, to teach them;

D&C 138:30
But behold, from among the righteous, he organized his forces and appointed messengers, clothed with power and authority, and commissioned them to go forth and carry the light of the gospel to them that were in darkness, even to all the spirits of men; and thus wass=hlblue>as the gospel preached to the dead.

D&C 138:32
Thus wass=hlblue>as the gospel preached to those who had died in their sins, without a knowledge of the truth, or in transgression, having rejected the prophets.

D&C 138:35
And so it wass=hlblue>as made known among the dead, both small and great, the unrighteous ass=hlgree>as well ass=hlgree>as the faithful, that redemption had been wrought through the sacrifice of the Son of God upon the cross.

D&C 138:36
Thus wass=hlblue>as it made known that our Redeemer spent his time during his sojourn in the world of spirits, instructing and preparing the faithful spirits of the prophets who had testified of him in the flesh;

D&C 138:38
Among the great and mighty ones who were ass=hlblue>assembled in this vast congregation of the righteous were Father Adam, the Ancient of Days and father of all,

D&C 138:40
Abel, the first martyr, wass=hlblue>as there, and his brother Seth, one of the mighty ones, who wass=hlblue>as in the express image of his father, Adam.

D&C 138:42
And Isaiah, who declared by prophecy that the Redeemer wass=hlblue>as anointed to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that were bound, were also there.

D&C 138:43
Moreover, Ezekiel, who wass=hlblue>as shown in vision the great valley of dry bones, which were to be clothed upon with flesh, to come forth again in the resurrection of the dead, living souls;

D&C 138:45
Eliass=hlblue>as, who wass=hlblue>as with Moses on the Mount of Transfiguration;

D&C 138:47
The Prophet Elijah wass=hlblue>as to plant in the hearts of the children the promises made to their fathers,

D&C 138:48
Foreshadowing the great work to be done in the temples of the Lord in the dispensation of the fulness of times, for the redemption of the dead, and the sealing of the children to their parents, lest the whole earth be smitten with a curse and utterly wasted at his coming.

D&C 138:49
All these and many more, even the prophets who dwelt among the Nephites and testified of the coming of the Son of God, mingled in the vast ass=hlblue>assembly and waited for their deliverance,

D&C 138:50
For the dead had looked upon the long absence of their spirits from their bodies ass=hlgree>as a bondage.

D&C 138:52
And continue thenceforth their labor ass=hlgree>as had been promised by the Lord, and be partakers of all blessings which were held in reserve for them that love him.

D&C 138:59
And after they have paid the penalty of their transgressions, and are washed clean, shall receive a reward according to their works, for they are heirs of salvation.

D&C 138:60
Thus wass=hlblue>as the vision of the redemption of the dead revealed to me, and I bear record, and I know that this record is true, through the blessing of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, even so. Amen.
