DC 22 Intro: SECTION 22
Revelation given to Joseph Smith, Jr., at Colesville, New York, in June 1830, but was not included in the 1835 edition of the Doctrine and Covenants. It was first printed in "Times and Season" (4:71) and has been included in the Doctrine and Covenants since the Cincinnati edition of 1864. It was specifically approved by the 1970 World Conference. It is also printed in the forepart of the Inspired Version (pp. 7-9).
1 The words of God which he spake unto Moses, at a time when Moses was caught up into an exceeding high mountain, and he saw God face to face, and he talked with him, and the glory of God was upon Moses; therefore Moses could endure his presence.
2 And God spake unto Moses, saying, Behold, I am the Lord God Almighty, and Endless is my name, for I am without beginning of days or end of years; and is not this endless?
3a And behold, thou art my son, wherefore look, and I will show thee the workmanship of mine hands, but not all;
3b for my works are without end, and also my words, for they never cease;
3c wherefore, no man can behold all my works except he behold all my glory;
3d and no man can behold all my glory, and afterwards remain in the flesh, on the earth.
