A Vision, a run for President of the United States, and Other Adventures

Section 137 in the Doctrine and Covenants takes us back to the Kirtland Temple about 8 years previous and describes a vision of the afterlife by Joseph Smith. After this we get to the last year of Joseph Smith’s life. We see a few discourses that change doctrinal understanding for the Church as well as a volley of paperwork trying to protect Joseph Smith, more to try and keep the peace in Nauvoo, and more still for Joseph Smith’s run for President of the United States.
