Summary
Carthage Was Not the End (Doctrine and Covenants 135-136) | Apostle D. Todd Harrison Doctrine and Covenants 135–136 Join D. Todd Harrison: Jesus Christ's Apostle to All Nations and Generations for this powerful sermon and testimony on Doctrine and Covenants 135 and 136, recounting the martyrdom of the Prophet Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum in Carthage Jail. These revelations bear witness of their divine calling, their sacrifice, and the continuation of the Lord’s work through His chosen servants. The account of Carthage is not only sacred history—it is personal legacy. My great‑great‑great grandfather, Willard Richards, was present in the jail on that fateful day, standing as a living witness to the events that fulfilled prophecy and sealed the testimony of Joseph and Hyrum with their blood. His survival and record preserved the memory of that moment for generations, and his faith continues to echo through my own apostolic witness today. Doctrine and Covenants 135 proclaims the eternal significance of Joseph and Hyrum’s lives and deaths, while Section 136 provides the Lord’s guidance to the Saints in their journey westward, reminding us that His kingdom moves forward despite tribulation. Together, these chapters testify of divine purpose, covenantal endurance, and the assurance that God’s work cannot be stopped. This sermon/lesson invites you to reflect on the martyrdom at Carthage, the legacy of faith carried by Willard Richards, and the living witness that Jesus Christ continues to guide His Church and His Apostles in every generation.
