D&C 17
The Lord states his purpose in revealing to three witnesses all concerning the testimony of Joseph Smith and testifying of such, that -
"...this you shall do that my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., may not be destroyed, that I may bring about my righteous purposes unto the children of men in this work." (Doctrine and Covenants 17:4)
Adding -
"...if you do these last commandments of mine, which I have given you, the gates of hell shall not prevail against you; for my grace is sufficient for you, and you shall be lifted up at the last day." (Doctrine and Covenants 17:8)
