Dedication of Kirtland TempleThis Week’s Gospel Doctrine Lesson: Establish a House of God (Lesson 18)

This week’s lesson focuses on the commandment of the Lord to build the Kirtland Temple.  The Saints were very poor and sacrificed greatly to construct this first temple.  The lesson also goes into detail about Joseph Smith’s dedication of the Kirtland Temple and the glorious manifestations and miracles that happened afterward, including the appearance of Jesus Christ.
Today I have a 20-page handout that gives additional information about the dedication of the Kirtland Temple, quotes from those who were there and testified of their spiritual experiences the outpourings of the spirit. Click for the download.
