joseph smith lectures on faith: Lectures on Faith Joseph Smith (Jr.), 1988 This special edition of the Lectures on Faith from Zion’s Camp Books is formatted for convenience on an eReader, with more than 100 internal links to scriptures and citations. We hope it will give you a great reading experience! The Lectures on Faith were originally prepared as materials for the School of the Prophets in Kirtland, Ohio in 1834 and were included in the Doctrine and Covenants from 1835 to 1921. Although the Lectures on Faith have never been accepted as revelation by the body of the church (and so were removed from the Doctrine and Covenants in 1921), they contain important doctrinal insights that can help anyone seeking to learn more about faith and come closer to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. President Joseph Fielding Smith noted, “I suppose that the rising generation knows little about the Lectures on Faith. . . . In my own judgment, these Lectures are of great value and should be studied. . . . I consider them to be of extreme value in the study of the gospel of Jesus Christ.” (Joseph Fielding Smith, Seek Ye Earnestly. Salt Lake City: Deseret Book, 1970.) Elder Bruce R. McConkie of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles has stated the lectures contain “some of the best lesson material ever prepared on the Godhead; on the character, perfections, and attributes of God; on faith, miracles, and sacrifice. They can be studied with great profit by all gospel scholars.” (Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine. Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1966.) |
joseph smith lectures on faith: The Lectures on Faith Jr. Joseph Smith, 2019-12-02 In The Lectures on Faith, Jr. Joseph Smith presents a profound exploration of the nature of God, faith, and the principles that govern divine communication. Written in a clear yet philosophical style, these lectures were initially crafted to serve as a doctrinal foundation for early Latter-day Saints. Engaging with themes of faith, revelation, and the characteristics of deity, Smith delves into the intricacies of biblical texts and early church teachings, situating them within the broader context of 19th-century religious thought and the quest for theological clarity amidst the burgeoning Mormon faith. As a pivotal figure in the establishment of the Latter-day Saint movement, Joseph Smith'Äôs insights are informed by his unique spiritual experiences and the challenges he faced in guiding a growing community. His personal revelations and charismatic leadership are evident throughout the text, reflecting his desire to elucidate spiritual concepts for his followers. This book not only underscores Smith'Äôs theological innovations but also reveals his commitment to making complex religious ideas accessible to all. Readers seeking to deepen their understanding of the Latter-day Saint tradition or the foundations of American religious thought will find The Lectures on Faith indispensable. Smith'Äôs penetrating insights and earnest exploration of faith resonate powerfully, inviting a reflective engagement with the nature of belief and the divine. |

joseph smith lectures on faith: First Vision Steven Craig Harper, 2019 This is the biography of a contested memory, how it was born, grew, changed the world, and was changed by it. It's the story of the story of how the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints began. Steven C. Harper tell the story of how Latter-day Saints forgot and then remembered several accounts of Joseph Smith's experience of his first vision and how Smith's 1838 account was redacted and canonized. He explores the dissonance many saints experienced after discovering multiple accounts of Smith's experience. He describes how, for many, the dissonance has been resolved by a reshaped collective memory. |

joseph smith lectures on faith: This is My Doctrine Charles Harrell, 2011 The principal doctrines defining Mormonism today often bear little resemblance to those it started out with in the early 1830s. This book shows that these doctrines did not originate in a vacuum but were rather prompted and informed by the religious culture from which Mormonism arose. Early Mormons, like their early Christian and even earlier Israelite predecessors, brought with them their own varied culturally conditioned theological presuppositions (a process of convergence) and only later acquired a more distinctive theological outlook (a process of differentiation).In this first-of-its-kind comprehensive treatment of the development of Mormon theology, Charles Harrell traces the history of Latter-day Saint doctrines from the times of the Old Testament to the present. He describes how Mormonism has carried on the tradition of the biblical authors, early Christians, and later Protestants in reinterpreting scripture to accommodate new theological ideas while attempting to uphold the integrity and authority of the scriptures. In the process, he probes three questions: How did Mormon doctrines develop? What are the scriptural underpinnings of these doctrines? And what do critical scholars make of these same scriptures? In this enlightening study, Harrell systematically peels back the doctrinal accretions of time to provide a fresh new look at Mormon theology.¿This Is My Doctrine¿ will provide those already versed in Mormonism¿s theological tradition with a new and richer perspective of Mormon theology. Those unacquainted with Mormonism will gain an appreciation for how Mormon theology fits into the larger Jewish and Christian theological traditions. |

joseph smith lectures on faith: Isaiah in the Book of Mormon Donald W. Parry, John Woodland Welch, 1998 Of Isaiah' prophetic writings, the resurrected Lord taught, Search these things diligently; for great are the words of Isaiah (3 Nephi 32:1). Yet no chapters in the Book of Mormon are more difficult to understand than the Isaiah passages quoted by Nephi, Jacob, Abinadi, and Christ himself. The 17 essays in Isaiah in the Book of Mormon take a variety of approaches in seeking to help readers make the most of Isaiah's teachings. The contributing scholars draw on the Book of Mormon prophets as knowledgeable guides, examining how and why those ancient writers used and interpreted Isaiah's prophetic teachings. They explain Nephi's keys for understanding the great prophet, use historical and linguistic information to clarify his meanings, examine recurring themes, and reflect on the influence of these texts on ancient and modern saints. |
