Doctrine and Covenants 79 Crown him again with sheaves

Jared Carter had spent much of late 1831 and early 1832 preaching in Ohio. After returning to Amherst, he went to Hiram to ask the Seer about his ministry in the coming season. On March 12, 1832, Joseph Smith dictated this revelation, directing Carter to preach again in the eastern United States and promising the Lord’s help. Carter left on his new mission on April 15, likely with the original revelation or a copy.

  1. Verily I say unto you, that it is my will that my servant Jared Carter should go again into the eastern countries, from place to place, and from city to city, in the power of the ordination wherewith he has been ordained, proclaiming glad tidings of great joy, even the everlasting gospel. (1 connected talk)
  2. And I will send upon him the Comforter, which shall teach him the truth and the way whither he shall go;
  3. And inasmuch as he is faithful, I will crown him again with sheaves.
  4. Wherefore, let your heart be glad, my servant Jared Carter, and fear not, saith your Lord, even Jesus Christ. Amen.

How these connections are counted

Sources. Scripture text is the public-domain English text of the Doctrine and Covenants (sections 1–138). Section summaries, headings and questions are Weak Things’ own; the Church’s copyrighted headings and footnotes are not used. Joseph Smith Papers links point to the exact manuscript and printed pages. Connections come from the scripture links in every general conference talk from April 2000 through October 2026.

Distinct talks, not mentions. Each talk counts once per verse. Badges show whether the talk cites this exact verse or a passage that includes it, and whether the link is in a footnote or the talk text. Frequency is not a measure of doctrinal importance.

Your own words, their link. Summaries are Weak Things’ own. Talk text, Joseph Smith Papers images and transcriptions are not reproduced; every card links to the original. This independent study tool does not speak for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
