D&C 94I wonder if it sounded odd to the saints that they should begin building the city of Zion, which was to be located in Missouri, in the city of Kirtland, Ohio?

D&C 93I don’t remember when I first noticed the promise of this section but I intend to claim that promise to see the face of my Savior. I get the impression from the words of John that Christ did not simply know the answer to ever situation without study and even prayer. Surely he was…
