This is a revealed scripture text from the Latter-day Saint (Mormon) tradition, specifically Doctrine and Covenants Section 29, recorded as a revelation received by Joseph Smith in September 1830. The text is presented as direct speech from Jesus Christ, framing itself as prophetic revelation in the tradition of biblical apocalyptic literature. Its primary content covers eschatological themes: the gathering of the elect before a coming day of tribulation, a detailed sequence of end-times events (cosmic signs, plagues, divine judgment, the millennium, and final destruction of the wicked), and the ultimate renewal of heaven and earth. A notably distinctive theological claim is its insistence that all of God's commandments are fundamentally spiritual rather than temporal — including those given to Adam — and that the Fall was a necessary precondition for human moral agency, since without experiencing "the bitter," humanity could not know "the sweet." The text also asserts the unconditional innocence of young children, who are declared redeemed and beyond Satan's reach until they reach an age of accountability.
