The term “Zion” is in many books of scripture referring to cities, the kingdom of God on the earth, and the state of having a pure heart. In mormon doctrine, “Zion” has more than one meaning as well. The literal places refer to the city of Enoch, the ancient city of Jerusalem, and the New Jerusalemm that will be built in Jackson County, Missouri. Mormon doctrine also teaches, though, that we are commanded to build Zion among us, as a state of mind and heart, by following our leaders, fulfilling our Church assignments, and doing all things that the Lord has commanded us.
