Excerpt from Improvement Era, Vol. 10: August, 1907In the year 1820, an angel descended to the humble boy Joseph, and revealed unto him the marvelous work of the latter days, directing the organization of Christ's Church and restoring the gospel of the kingdom, which was to be preached unto all the world as a witness unto all nations. By divine presence and through holy messengers, God made known to the youth truths long forgotten and hidden from the world. The revelations and manifestations of divinity, 'and the restoration of authority to do in Christ's holy name what he might do if present for the regener ation and redemption of mankind, were written and preserved by the boy prophet, and accepted as The Book of God's Covenants and Commandments by the people of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Simple and pure, given unto his servants after the manner of their language that they might come to nu derstanding. Unfolding to men the magnanimity of the wonderful work of redemption. Detailing the bringing forth out of the wil derness of obscurity and darkness the only true Church, the open ing of the door of salvation to the living and the dead, and the reaffirming to the children of men that if they should ask, they would receive, and if they should knock it would be opened unto them. In harmony with the message of ancient prophets, fulfil' ing the prophecies, unifying and uniting all dispensations, turning the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, that the living and the dead, through the atonement of the Lord, might be redeemed from mortality, and receive the salvation instituted before the world was.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
