“His Sacrifice Shall Be More Sacred unto Me Than His Increase”

October 13 – October 19, 2025

WEEK 42 SUMMARY

=================

In Doctrine and Covenants sections 115 to 120, the Lord provides guidance to the early Saints regarding the organization and growth of the Church. Section 115 officially names the Church as "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" and emphasizes the importance of building a temple in Far West, Missouri. Section 116 identifies Adam-ondi-Ahman as a significant location for future events. Section 117 instructs Church leaders to prioritize spiritual matters over temporal concerns. Section 118 calls for the Twelve Apostles to serve missions abroad. Finally, Section 119 introduces the law of tithing as a way to support the Church and its members, and Section 120 establishes the Council on the Disposition of the Tithes to oversee the use of these sacred funds. These revelations collectively focus on the spiritual and organizational development of the Church.
