D&C When Everyone Else is Done

“G,” the masses clamor, “do you have something you could share about D&C 81-84 after everyone except the clamoring masses are done with them?”

“Yes, my masses,” I reply.  “Clamor no more.”

• “Hearken to your calling”–D&C 81:1.    We think of a calling as a thing.  Synonym, “job.”  Here, “calling” is an action.  A calling is a received call.
• “A revelation to Joseph Smith and six elders”–D&C 84:1.  These things were not done in a corner.
• “For without this no man can see the face of God, even the Father, and live.”  D&C 84:22.  I woke up this morning  with the idea that the reason the wicked flee the presence of God is because He is so inspiring.
