Revelation 17:6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the
martyrs of Jesus; and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
DC 113:6a Hyrum Smith was 44 years old February, 1844, and Joseph Smith was 38 in December, 1843, and henceforward their names will be classed among the
martyrs of religion;
DC 113:7d and their innocent blood, with the innocent blood of all the
martyrs under the altar that John saw, will cry unto the Lord of hosts, till he avenges that blood on the earth. Amen.
DC 125:12a The missions abroad other than those in the land of Joseph which were opened officially during the lifetime of the
martyrs shall be considered as having been opened unto us, whether they were at once undertaken and prosecuted during the lifetime of the
martyrs, or whether subsequent to their death they were prosecuted in righteousness-wherever they were sent.
