Questions on Marriage

The following revelation was given to David for the Fellowship of Christ in Ohio on April 18, 2016.  The Lord answers questions about marriage on the original Latter Day Saint church and for the Fellowship. In January of 2018 David was studying the 132nd section of the Latter-day Saints’ Doctrine and Covenants, and upon reading the last verse he prayed to know when we would reveal more unto us as promised. He was told the two revelations given on this date were answers to that promise. This revelation was voted and accepted as scripture by the Council of Elders of the Fellowship January 5, 2019, and by the General Assembly of the Saints April 6, 2019.

  1. After numerous inquiries from those both in and outside of the Church of Jesus Christ in Christian Fellowship, I petitioned the Lord on the subject of polygamy.
  2. The Lord told me he would answer the question in due time, but at this point he would not enlighten me on the subject.
  3. Finally, in April, a family member asked about the topic, and I went again to the Lord.
  4. The Lord asked me to prepare myself for a revelation, and after some days of prayer and meditation, the Lord gave us the answer to a much sought-after question.
  5. Verily, thus saith the Lord unto you, my servants; even the Saints of the Fellowship of Christ:
  6. Behold, verily I see that there are many both counted among you as fellows and those outside the Fellowship that have inquired as to my will in regard to marriage;
  7. Particularly, there are those that do question my servant Joseph and those that followed the apostles after he was taken from the Earth.
  8. ¶ Behold, here is wisdom: The sons and daughters of Elohim will marry and be given of marriage in the flesh;
  9. Yet in the resurrection all things shall be restored, and none shall marry nor be given of marriage;
  10. For in the resurrection all shall be as one, as it was before the world was; and these shall be brothers and sisters as all are creations of Elohim.
  11. Yea, at the first time they are sons and daughters, brothers and sisters, in the creation of Elohim; yea and these are even the Sons and Daughters of God;
  12. And at the end of the final resurrection, they that shall rise in righteousness shall all be sealed as one, to restore that which was taken in the flesh to its purest form.
  13. ¶ And these shall not be sons nor daughters, nor husbands nor wives; yet all shall be brothers and sisters in in me;
  14. Yea, and these shall be counted as my children, even the Children of Christ;
  15. And in this they too shall be Sons and Daughters of God, and shall stand with me on the right hand of the Father;
  16. For behold, I am not a God of the dead, but of the living, this and my Father also; who is my God and thy Father, and also thy God; and I am the Father and the Son;
  17. And there shall be bodies of telestial, terrestrial, and celestial; given even as my grace shall suffice all that will come unto me.
  18. Therefore, what doth it matter, provided the children of Zion are raised in love and in righteousness?
  19. ¶ Behold, my servant Joseph did take unto himself many wives, even wives that had been promised to another;
  20. Did I not say into him that if a man receiveth a wife in the new and everlasting covenant, and if she be with another man, and I have not appointed unto her by the holy anointing, she hath committed adultery and shall be destroyed?
  21. And ye see that my neither servant nor his wives were destroyed; and thus these were of me.
  22. ¶ But behold, not all of his wives were sought in a manner pleasing unto me; for behold, his wife, Emma, knew of these things, yet she suffered greatly in her heart.
  23. And some that he sought to take to wife he took with impatience, and these were not full grown into maturity;
  24. Yea, and there was deceit among my saints, thinking that a woman being sealed to one of my servants would place their family higher unto me.
  25. Behold, it is I and I alone that have provided the grace sufficient for saving the souls of man;
  26. And this sealing power was given unto my servant to make that which is on earth as it is in heaven, that the Father’s will be done on the earth as it is in Heaven.
  27. ¶ Behold, this is my will and commandment to my Saints in the Fellowship of Zion:
  28. That ye love one another, and that ye teach that my grace be sufficient to save the souls of man, and that anything more or less than this is not of me.
  29. For verily I say unto you, the keys of the dispensation, which ye have received by the hands of righteous men of my church of Latter-day Saints have come down from their fathers;
  30. And the keys from Raphael, who is and was Melchizedek, by the hands of this angel thou hast received and my Saints may receive by the hands of my servant David, being sent down from heaven unto you through him.
  31. ¶ Verily I say unto you, and unto all those that are mine; cleanse your hearts and your garments, lest the blood of this generation be required at your hands.
  32. Be faithful until I come, for behold I come quickly; and my reward is with me to recompense every man according as his work; so shall be, for I am the lamb slain for the sins of the world; Even so, Amen.
  33. After receiving this revelation, it was impressed upon my mind that this, plural marriage, was not something that the Lord thought on as much as man, except to say that the Lord is not pleased when men use plural marriage to indulge their lusts.
