Drawing from a wide range of interesting and authoritative sources, this work provides explanation and comment on the full scope of subjects and issues relating to the determination of true doctrine for Latter-day Saints. These include selected materials examining the following as they affect doctrine: The Scriptures or standard works; Prophets and apostles, the living oracles; Church Correlation; Gospel Knowledge; Scientific theories; Doctrinally oriented books; False doctrine and apostasy. Also scattered throughout this reference guide are many previously unpublished and little-known excerpts selected from the correspondence of a number of Church leaders and scholars, including Harold B. Lee, Joseph Fielding Smith, Bruce R. McConkie, and Hugh Nibley.&#8221; If you&#8217;re a collector of Mormon books you&#8217;ll enjoy chapter one: &#8220;Church Books.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;font-size:small\">Shipped directly from the publisher. \u00a0Expect a delay in delivery.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5066,"template":"","meta":{"give_campaign_id":0,"_eb_attr":"","inline_featured_image":false},"product_brand":[49],"product_cat":[62,78],"product_tag":[1084],"class_list":{"0":"post-5067","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_brand-eborn-books","7":"product_cat-all-products","8":"product_cat-lds-beliefs","9":"product_tag-202204inventoryconfirmed","10":"product_shipping_class-united-states","11":"pa_writer-horne-dennis-b","13":"first","14":"instock","15":"sale","16":"shipping-taxable","17":"purchasable","18":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
