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.

He expresses how prayer can change your life situations as it did his. Therefore, quoted by Apostle Marsh, “knowing the will of God’s word in prayer is part of the believers driving power as he petitions God.” However, prayer, as stated by Apostle Marsh, “gives insight on matters and issues of the heart of God.” Nevertheless, this book provides a comprehensive textbook-style view for those who do not have the ability or time to research and understand Biblical terminology, when it comes to text, content, and context of theological doctrine as well. The uniqueness of this book is to guide already trained lay leaders and potential laid leaders in an upscale fast track training and study guide text; to understanding the apostolic way of life. This is the life that Jesus Christ walked and lived in. This creates an atmosphere of Spiritual, physical and social well-being benefits for the lay members, as well as, the community they live in. This book is also, recommended by Apostle Marsh for colleges around the world to draw from the basic research and knowledge of simple modern day terminology. This book is not just for a particular group or audience. It has the ability to connect non –believers, as well as, a believer with a greater influence and regard for the Kingdom of God.

Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart” Jeremiah” (29:11-13).

Jesus – a Master Teacher by Roy Pitcher Synopsis for cover The success of Jesus as a teacher is both proverbial and fascinating – especially for a teacher.....but can his many strategies and methods go beyond religious teaching and be translated widely into the 21st century? That is the question Roy Pitcher asked. His positive conclusions are described in three parts. • An analysis of Jesus’ situation, decisions and methods. • An examination of seven inter-related social psychological themes evident in his teaching. • A translation and application to our contemporary scene of eight strategies and a planning model that can be applied to wide ranging age groups and areas of teaching. Its success has been evident in many contexts and deserves careful consideration.
No one is more important to us than our Savior Jesus Christ. He is the only means of our salvation. He is our everlasting example. How can we follow Him and grow to become more like Him? It’s impossible to become like someone whom we don’t truly understand. When pondering about our Savior, are we able to answer these vital questions: • Who is He? • What is He like? • What are His fundamental attributes? • What does He believe and what did He teach? • How did He handle the adversity, trials, rejection, and temptations that He faced in His life? • How can this knowledge help us in our own trials and temptations? We can turn to three sacred sources to discover who our Savior is: the scriptures, the teachings of the prophets, and the commandments He has given us. As we study His attributes from these sources, our understanding will expand, and our lives will improve significantly. Each chapter in this book focuses on one of our Savior’s attributes, concluding with powerful suggestions demonstrating how we can obtain these same qualities. As we apply His attributes in our lives, we will become more like Him. As we become more like Him, we will come to know Him better and we will be filled with power from heaven. Discovering Christ can lead each of us to a richer life—a life filled with light, peace, and joy.
