SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY 2 Nephi 9:19-21 "O the greatness of the mercy of our God, the Holy One of Israel! For he delivereth his saints from that awful monster the devil, and death, and hell, and that lake of fire and brimstone, which is endless torment. O how great the holiness of our God! For he knoweth all things, and there is not anything save he knows it. And he cometh into the world that he may save all men if they will hearken unto his voice; for behold, he suffereth the pains of all men, yea, the pains of every living creature, both men, women, and children, who belong to the family of Adam."

QUOTE OF THE DAY Howard W. Hunter "We must accept his gift, repent of those mistakes, and follow his commandments in order to take full advantage of this redemption. The offer is always there; the way is always open. We can always, even in our darkest hour and most disastrous errors, look to the Son of God and live" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Howard W. Hunter, p. 103). ARCHIVE |

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY June 12 To read more events in Church History, Click Here! 1844 - In the early afternoon, David Bettisworth, an constable of Hancock County, arrested the Prophet Joseph Smith on a writ issued out of Carthage, Illinois, on a complaint by Francis M. Higbee concerning the destruction of the Nauvoo Expositor. Several other men involved from Nauvoo were also listed in the writ. The writ stated that the men could appear "before me or some other justice of the peace" and so the Prophet demanded to be taken to the closest justice in Nauvoo, not the one in Carthage that had issued the arrest order. Mr. Bettisworth was upset and demanded that he go to Carthage. Joseph "felt so indignant at this abuse in depriving me of the privilege of the statute of Illinois in going before 'some other justice,' that I determined to take out a writ of habeas corpus" (History of the Church, 6:454). The Municipal Court of Nauvoo issued the writ of habeas corpus and the Prophet was released and ordered to appear the next day before the Court in Nauvoo.
