D&C 127
In writing a letter, much like the epistles of former apostles, the Prophet declared the word of the Lord -
"...I am about to restore many things to the earth, pertaining to the priesthood, saith the Lord of Hosts." (Doctrine and Covenants Section 127:8)
I sense the days remaining in the Prophets life was short and their were yet "hidden things" (see 124) that were yet to revealed to the Prophet. We know now that the Lord bestowed knowledge and keys for marriage for time and eternity (see D&C 132), temples to house sacred ordinances, endowments, and even baptism for the dead. Timing was short, and I sense the Lord was telling the saints that the crowning ordinances of the priesthood was coming very shortly.
