D&C 42

 30 And behold, thou wilt remember the ^apoor, 

and consecrate of thy properties for their 

support that which thou hast to impart unto 

them, with a covenant and a deed which 

cannot be broken.

31 And inasmuch as ye impart of your 

substance unto the poor, ye will do it unto me; 

and they shall be laid before the bishop of my 

church and his counselors, two of the elders, 

or high priests, such as he shall appoint or 

has appointed and set apart for that purpose.

32 . . . every man shall be made accountable 

unto me, a steward over his own property, or 

that which he has received by consecration, 

as much as is sufficient for himself and 

family.
