Two ways to redeem Zion
October 17th, 2023 by Zen
Wherefore, the land of Zion shall not be obtained but by purchase or by blood, otherwise there is none inheritance for you.
And if by purchase, behold you are blessed;
And if by blood, as you are forbidden to shed blood, lo, your enemies are upon you, and ye shall be scourged from city to city, and from synagogue to synagogue, and but few shall stand to receive an inheritance.
D&C 63:29-31
Two ways to redeem Zion, but only one way for us.

In this context, the massive tracts of land that the church currently owns make perfect sense. Part of building Zion is ensuring lands for covenant people to inherit. This may be another good reason for an organized church.
