Impressions of a Prophet:  Joseph Smith

20: Commerce and Baptism for the Dead


Listen Later

In this episode we talk about the history of the place we now call Nauvoo, the reason so many died there when the saints first arrived, and a glorious revelation that followed regarding those who have died without baptism.

What were the two names for Nauvoo before it was Nauvoo? Why did the saints buy it? Why were the saints dying in such large numbers when they arrived? What revelation did Joseph Smith receive regarding those who had died without baptism? Who performed the first baptism for the dead and for whom? Where did the baptisms take place at first, and then after that? (Sorry for teasing you so much.)

Learn the answers to these questions and more. Good to have you back!
