Doctrine and Covenants 16

 
1 HEARKEN, my servant Peter, and listen to the words of Jesus Christ, your Lord and your Redeemer.

2 For behold, I speak unto you with sharpness and with power, for mine arm is over all the earth.

3 And I will tell you that which no man knoweth save me and thee alone--

In verse 3, Jesus says he'll tell Peter Whitmer something only Jesus and Peter know.

That which no one knows except Peter Whitmer and Jesus is that Peter desired to know what would be of most worth to him. Who hasn't wondered what in life would be most important for them to do? The section heading for section 14 says the three Whitmer sons "received a testimony as to the genuineness of the work, [and] became deeply concerned over the matter of their individual duty." Of course they would be thinking something along the lines of "What would be of most worth for me to do." This seems like a mediocre example of cold reading.

6 And now, behold, I say unto you, that the thing which will be of the most worth unto you will be to declare repentance unto this people, that you may bring souls unto me, that you may rest with them in the kingdom of my Father. Amen.
