They plan to leave in April or May, but persecution causes the Saints to leave earlier. The departure from Nauvoo is not as organized as they had hoped it could be. 14:36 The United States government asks for volunteers to fight in the Mormon Battalion. Over 500 men and some women leave to help with the Mexican-American war. 17:35 D&C 136 – The word of the Lord concerning the Camp of Israel. The Saints are to organize with a covenant and promise to keep the commandments. 24:05 A cultural untruth that has become prevalent among Latter-day Saints is that if only we are righteous, bad things won’t happen. The reality is that the challenges of mortality are helping us become a more Zion-like people. 26:16 Verse 38-39. Revelation about Joseph Smith, “it was needful that he should seal his testimony with his blood.” 27:06 D&C 136 demonstrates Brigham Young exercising his prophetic mantle as a prophet speaking the mind and will of the Lord. ____________________ This channel may make use of copyrighted material, the use of which has not always been specifically authorized by the copyright owner.
