New York, Boston, and Albany

(This blog has become my filing system. It is easier to find quotes with this search engine than the one on lds.org.)


In Doctrine and Covenants 84:114-115, it reads:

Nevertheless, let the bishop go unto the city of New York, also to the city of Albany, and also to the city of Boston, and warn the people of those cities with the sound of the gospel, with a loud voice, of the desolation and utter abolishment which await them if they do reject these things.

For if they do reject these things the hour of their judgment is nigh, and their house shall be left unto them desolate.

Orson Pratt also prophesied that New York, Boston and Albany would be left desolate.

Wilford Woodruff told specifically what would befall each city: New York will be destroyed by an earthquake. Boston will be swept into the sea. Albany will be destroyed by fire. Millenial Star, October 6, 1866.
