	Mormon LDS Nauvoo Temple Fire Burning (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		But, the firing of the temple is surrounded by issues more complex than a sole arsonist’s resentment against a religious society that had already left the region and were consequently no longer a threat to the developing Illinois political scene (where men like Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglass were beginning their careers).
		But, from the remoteness of Brigham Young in Utah, the temples in Kirtland and Nauvoo both alike appeared isolated enough for him to suppose that if his opponents had gained the Kirtland temple then they were also capable of obtaining the Nauvoo temple—unless he took action to prevent it.
		The burning of the Nauvoo temple on 9 October 1848 was preceded by statements of Young assenting to the burning.

		The Lord shall appear to those men at Kirtland Temple and give them great power, and they shall go out and turn the Church into the same kind of instrument that it was during the New Testament times.
		If the Church with all its heart had turned to Kirtland Temple, the Lord would have already endowed the School of the Prophets there, and the endowed priesthood would be building the second phase of Zion—the New Jerusalem.
		I firmly believe that the Saints must turn back to Kirtland, and back to the Restoration; this is the means that God is going to use to build Zion—the same means which He has already announced and provided.

	How was the Kirtland Temple different than the temples of today?
		The big difference between the Kirtland temple and the most of the others that we have built is that the Kirtland temple was really little more than a meeting hall.
		The Nauvoo temple was still mostly a meeting hall, but it had rooms in the basement and attic that were set aside for the performance of the ordinances that are the staple of our temple worship today.
		These temples each still had a Large meeting hall in their design, but it did not occupy most of the building as had been the case with the first two temples.

		Music played an important role in the lives of the early saints, and sacred hymns inspired the pioneers in both the creation and dedication of the Kirtland Temple.‑ Emma Smith finished selecting the sacred hymns, and the small leather-bound hymnal was published in early 1836.
		It contained only the words to approximately ninety hymns.‑ The early Latter Day Saints then adapted the words to well known tunes, as was the common practice of the time period.
		“It has been a very special spiritual experience, listening to and watching the Kirtland Temple documentary,” she said.
