The tenth article of faith, written by Joseph Smith as an explanation of Latter-day Saint belief, states that "Christ will reign personally upon the earth." Poon’s portrayal of that idea is certainly personal; children and animals of diverse backgrounds surround the Savior in a small utopia.

"Here Christ suffers all children to come unto Him and find rest."
