Book Description
Doctrine and Covenant Gems is a book organized primarily to facilitate a reader’s ease in identifying and enjoying the sacred and remarkable revelations recorded in the book Doctrine and Covenants, which the prophet Joseph Smith, Jr. received during the restoration of the Gospel and Church of Jesus Christ during the early 1800’s. This restoration had for centuries been prophesied to take place in the latter days. Doctrine and Covenant Gems follows the original 138 sections, and provides a chronological arrangement of the remarkable revelations of principles, truths, doctrines, proclamations, priesthood keys and authority restored at that time. Each section includes the date, location and circumstances associated with the revelation received. Revelations recorded in the Doctrine and Covenants, in the summarizing words of the 1981 Church-authorized edition, include “the nature of the Godhead, the origin of man, the reality of Satan, the purpose of mortality, the necessity of obedience, the need for repentance, the workings of the Holy Spirit, the ordinances and performances that pertain to salvation, the destiny of the earth, the future condition of man after the resurrection and the judgment, the eternity of the marriage relationship, and the eternal nature of the family”. Doctrine and Covenant Gems carefully identifies and polishes each scriptural gem in facilitating a reader’s ready grasp of the truths therein. It follows the same system used in the 1981 church-authorized publication in, identifying the individual subjects addressed in each section. The book in no way proposes to replace the value of a person’s reading and enjoying the Doctrine and Covenants in its full text. Apology is rendered for any errors or valued scriptural oversights. What makes Doctrine and Covenant Gems particularly valuable in a person’s reading about the restoration of the Gospel is the clarity it offers in focusing on just the pertinent scriptural truths found in the Doctrine and Covenants without having to read as well the sometimes more voluminous circumstantial history and extraneous writing experienced in various sections of the original scriptural document itself.

The Pearl of Greatest Price
Author: Terryl Givens
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190603887
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
The Pearl of Greatest Price narrates the history of Mormonism's fourth volume of scripture, canonized in 1880. The authors track its predecessors, describe its several components, and assess their theological significance within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Four principal sections are discussed, along with attendant controversies associated with each. The Book of Moses purports to be a Mosaic narrative missing from the biblical version of Genesis. Too little treated in the scholarship on Mormonism, these chapters, produced only months after the Book of Mormon was published, actually contain the theological nucleus of Latter-day Saint doctrines as well as a virtual template for the Restoration Joseph Smith was to effect. In The Pearl of Greatest Price, the author covers three principal parts that are the focus of many of the controversies engulfing Mormonism today. These parts are The Book of Abraham, The Book of Moses, and The Joseph Smith History. Most controversial of all is the Book of Abraham, a production that arose out of a group of papyri Smith acquired, along with four mummies, in 1835. Most of the papyri disappeared in the great Chicago Fire, but surviving fragments have been identified as Egyptian funerary documents. This has created one of the most serious challenges to Smith's prophetic claims the LDS church has faced. LDS scholars, however, have developed several frameworks for vindicating the inspiration of the resulting narrative and Smith's calling as a prophet. The author attempts to make sense of Smith's several, at times divergent, accounts of his First Vision, one of which is canonized as scripture. He also assesses the creedal nature of Smith's "Articles of Faith," in the context of his professed anti-creedalism. In sum, this study chronicles the volume's historical legacy and theological indispensability to the Latter-day Saint tradition, as well as the reasons for its resilience and future prospects in the face of daunting challenges.

Book Description
What we propose doing in this book, namely, to make a serious attempt to assist some of those who have inhaled the poisonous fumes of infidelity and been left in a state of mental indecision concerning sacred things. Our principal object will be to set forth some of the numerous indications that the Bible is something far superior to any human production, and give some of the rules which require to be heeded if the Scriptures are to be properly interpreted; and though their scope will go beyond the general title of ""Divine revelation,"" yet they will complement and complete the earlier ones.

Precious Gem in the Tabernacle
Author: B. R. Hicks
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781583630679
Category : Tabernacle
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
Nowhere in the Bible is there such a detailed picture of the LORD Jesus Christ than is found in the Mosaic Tabernacle. Among all the books written by Reverend Hicks, none is as important or as far-reaching in influence as this book, for it presents the Stature, the Image, the Perfection of the Son of God that all believers in Jesus Christ must strive to attain. The Mosaic Tabernacle is God's blueprint of His Only Begotten Son in Whom God put all Wisdom, Understanding, and Knowledge. By studying the types and shadows of all that God put in the first Tabernacle, and also by studying the earthly ministry of the High Priest, we gain a greater understanding of the heavenly things that are found in the Living Tabernacle of the LORD Jesus Christ, the second and more perfect Tabernacle, and His ministry. He is our spiritual High Priest, after the eternal order of Melchizedek, and He is the most Precious Gem that God ever gave to mankind. Thousands of this book are in print. It has been translated into many languages so that its message reaches around the world to acquaint people with Jesus in a greater way. It is also the most detailed study of the literal Mosaic Tabernacle in print.

The Doctrine of Reconciliation
Author: Arthur W. Pink
Publisher: Sovereign Grace Publishers,
ISBN: 1589604415
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
Arthur W. Pink (1890-1953) launched his yearly publication, Studies in the Scriptures in 1921. These continued until his death, altogether 33 volumes of 288 pp. each. Most of Pink's books are taken from these yearly books (written monthly in 24 page format). This title is one of the many taken from eight of those monthly magazines. Readers will find thorough consideration of all the facets of this Biblical Doctrine of Reconciliation. Pink covers: Its Arrangement; Its Need, Its Effectuation; Its Meaning; Its Scope; and Its Reception. There are Scriptures galore cited. Undoubtedly the reader will grow rich in knowledge and in the grace of Christ. The pages are full, with probably 400 words to a page, so buyers will get their moneys worth. As an example of what a master workman like Pink does, note that he cites Romans 12:1, 2: [This verse] ''supplies an interpretation of the rites of the Law and of the reasonable part of the O. T. order of things. Thus, he who would make a covenant with God is required to give up himself wholly unto God with a sincere and firm resolution unto a new life of obedience to Him. If there is any reservation the covenant is marred in the making of it: ''Their heart was not right with Him, neither were they steadfast in His covenant'' (Ps. 78:37). Goodwin's Reconciliation by the Blood of Christ is a sermon he preached on Colossians 1:20, in which He describes the seeming impossibility of reconciling totally depraved men to a holy God. Who is sufficient for such a task? He proves that only Christ Jesus had the fitness to fill this role of perfect obedience to the Law, together with an acceptable sacrifice to propitiate the wrath of God toward men.

GEMS FROM THE BOOK OF MORMON

ISBN: 1304903273

Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
What significant Christian doctrines does the Book of Mormon teach? Gems from the past light a path to the future in Christ the Lord. For example: The Gospel plan is to save families, God judges us for our use of agency but intervenes against the wicked, the atonement is infinite, the priesthood are "chosen vessels," and we must "take upon ourselves the name of Christ" at baptism. One great GEM is the witness of the Book of Mormon to the THREE DAYS and NIGHTS Jesus was in the tomb, confirmed in the Bible by the double Sabbaths (plural in Matt. 28:1). Also the prophesy found in Isaiah pertaining to Joseph Smith is clarified in the LXX. These are just a few of the GEMS found in the Book of Mormon!
