This is the Lord's Work

Doctrine and Covenants section 1 and 5. These sections do not deal with the same subject matter. However the one thing that they both have in common is that the Lord Jesus Christ wants the reader to know, this is his work. 

These two sections declare unequivocally  that this is the church of Jesus Christ.  He tells us that he has something to say. The commandments are his. The Lord covenants with us. It isn't the prophets. It isn't local leadership. It is the Lord. He is the one that directs and guides this church. 

It is through him that the authority is given to translate the Book of Mormon. It is him who is going to fall his sword on those  unrepentant of the world. 

He gives a promise that three things will happen if people will speak the name of the Lord Jesus Christ even the savior of the world. One, that faith will increase in the earth. Two, that the everlasting covenant would be established. Three, that the fullness of the gospel might be proclaimed to the world.

Over the two sections of scriptures The Lord says 121 times that this is his work. And that we will have the word of the Lord given to us through his prophets.
