“After Much Tribulation … Cometh the Blessing”
September 15 – September 21, 2025
WEEK 38 SUMMARY
=================
Sections 102 to 105 of the Doctrine and Covenants cover a range of topics related to the early Church's organization and challenges. Section 102 outlines the procedures for holding disciplinary councils, which were important for maintaining order and righteousness within the Church. Section 103 addresses the need to redeem Zion, following the expulsion of Saints from Jackson County, Missouri, and calls for the organization of Zion's Camp, a group of men who would march to Missouri to assist the Saints. Section 104 deals with the United Order, a system of consecration and stewardship, and provides instructions for its dissolution and the distribution of properties among Church members. Finally, Section 105 reveals that Zion's Camp would not redeem Zion at that time, emphasizing the need for the Saints to be spiritually prepared before Zion could be established. These sections reflect the early Church's efforts to establish a Zion community and the challenges they faced, including persecution and the need for spiritual readiness.
