How well known were they to the people of Joseph's time period? Did they actually occur as he described them? Did Joseph predict additional wars beyond the Civil War? Doctrine and Covenants section 87 contains a prophecy about the Civil War given almost 30 years before the actual conflict. Specifically, the revelation foretold the division of the Southern and Northern states and the subsequent conflict, including slaves rising up against their masters. The revelation was given by Joseph Smith on December 25, 1832, in response to concerns about growing international troubles and the potential dissolution of the United States. In this episode Casey Griffiths will travel first to Kirtland, Ohio, where the Civil War prophecy was received. Joining him at his next stop in Pennsylvania is U.S. history expert Jared Riddick. While visiting the Gettysburg battle site, the two of them will discuss several facts from the Civil War contrasted with Joseph Smith's actual prophecy. Casey then travels to a military cemetery in Utah to offer his final verdict about the prophecies while visiting the grave site of his own relative, a Korean War military veteran.
