A of F 10. 10 We believe in the literal ^agathering of Israel and in the restoration of the ^bTen Tribes; that ^cZion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will ^dreign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be ^erenewed and receive its ^fparadisiacal ^gglory.

D&C 52: 2 (2, 42). 2 Saying: I, the Lord, will make known unto you what I will that ye shall do from this time until the next conference, which shall be held in Missouri, upon the ^aland which I will ^bconsecrate unto my people, which are a ^cremnant of Jacob, and those who are heirs according to the ^dcovenant.

D&C 103: 24. 24 And inasmuch as mine enemies come against you to drive you from my goodly ^aland, which I have consecrated to be the land of Zion, even from your own lands after these testimonies, which ye have brought before me against them, ye shall curse them;
c	Ps. 72: 7. 7 In his days shall the ^arighteous flourish; and abundance of ^bpeace so long as the moon endureth. D&C 54: 10. 10 And again, be ^apatient in tribulation until I ^bcome; and, behold, I come quickly, and my ^creward is with me, and they who have ^dsought me early shall find ^erest to their souls.
