#REDIRECT[[Lectures on Faith]]
===The Lectures were published in 1835 as the Doctrine portion of The Doctrine and Covenants of the Church of the Latter Day Saints===
 
 
 
The Lectures were suggested to be added to this version of the D&C by a committee appointed on September 24, 1834 by a general assembly of the church to arrange the doctrines and revelations of the church into a single volume. That committee consisted of Joseph Smith, Oliver Cowdery, Sidney Rigdon, and Frederick G. Williams.  The general body of the church accepted the committee's compilation on August 17, 1835 as "the doctrine and covenants of their faith, by a unanimous vote." <ref>{{HoC|vol=2|start=243|end=246 }}</ref>
 
 
 
While the Lectures on Faith were at one time included in the Doctrine and Covenants, they were subsequently removed (along with other items; for more information see [[Doctrine_and_Covenants_textual_changes|D&C Textual Changes]]) that were not considered official revelation and binding doctrine by the church.
