Revelation, given, February 24, 1834

Times and Seasons, vol. 6, p. 1023

Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints

Verily I say unto you my friends, behold I will give unto you a revelation and commandment, that you may know how to act in the discharge of your duties concerning the salvation and redemption of your brethren, who have been scattered from the land of Zion; being driven and smitten by the hands of mine enemies; on whom I will pour out my wrath without measure in mine own time, for I have suffered them thus far, that they might fill up the measure of their iniquities, that their cup might be full; 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.

But verily I say unto you, that I have decreed a decree, which my people shall realize inasmuch as they hearken from this hour, unto the counsel, which I the Lord their God give unto them.

To be continued.
