Zechariah and Malachi describe the sequence of events that will lead up to the Savior’s coming in glory. They also lay out what is required of those who will come unto Him and partake of His Atonement.

Lesson 47: “Let Us Rise Up and Build”
Every week we have the sacred privilege of coming unto Christ at the sacrament table. We are commanded to “go to the house of prayer and offer up [our] sacraments upon my holy day” At that moment we come into the presence of the Lord and account for ourselves. Imagine being denied access to the sacrament table. Imagine losing the privilege of coming unto Christ to be purified of Him.
Lesson 46: A Kingdom, Which Shall Never Be Destroyed
Throughout the vast span of human history innumerable kingdoms have risen and nearly all of them have fallen into the dust until now they only exist as remnants of scattered memories.
Lesson 45: “If I Perish, I Perish”
The Old Testament is teeming with examples of the Lord delivering his true followers. The experiences of Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, Esther, and Mordecai are all inspiring testaments to God’s will and ability to save his faithful children.
Lesson 44: “Every Thing Shall Live Whither the River Cometh”
In 592 B.C., Ezekiel was taken in vision to Jerusalem where he witnessed the extent to which wickedness had consumed the hearts of the Jews. He also witnessed that their corruption caused the “glory of the Lord,” or the light of Christ, to withdraw from the city. The vision commenced with Ezekiel seeing through successive stages “increasingly greater acts of apostasy.”
Lesson 43: “The Shepherds of Israel”
It was a bleak and hopeless time. Scattered Israel had become the prey of spiritual wolves, and had become spiritually a “valley of dry bones.” But Ezekiel promised that the day would come when the Lord would “set up one shepherd over [Israel], and he shall feed them, even my servant David.”
Lesson 42: “I Will Write It in Their Hearts”
Jeremiah lived at the crossroads of troubled times and troubled places. He stood as a witness and a representative of an old covenant dying away with the promise of a new covenant emerging.
