Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from New Witnesses for God, Vol. 1 of 3: I, Joseph Smith, the Prophet Nearly a century has passed away since Joseph Smith first declared to the world that he had received a revelation from God. From that revelation and others that followed there has sprung into existence what men call a new religion - "Mormonism;" and a new church, the institution commonly known as the "Mormon Church," the proper name of which is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The reader should know, however, that "Mormonism" is not a new religion. Those who accept it do not so regard it; it makes no such pretensions. The institution commonly called the "Mormon Church," is not a new church; it makes no such pretensions, as will be seen by its very name - The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This of itself discloses what "The Mormon Church" claims to be - the Church of Jesus Christ; and to distinguish it from the Church of Jesus Christ that existed in former days, the phrase "of Latter-day Saints" is added. "Mormonism," I repeat, is not a new religion; it is the Old Religion, the "Everlasting Gospel," restored again to the earth through the revelations received by Joseph Smith. At a glance the reader will observe that these claims in behalf of "Mormonism" pre-suppose an apostasy of the world from the Christian religion; and hence, from the standpoint of a believer, "Mormonism" is the Gospel of Jesus Christ restored; and the institution which grows out of it - the church - is the Church of Jesus Christ re-established among men. The author has chosen for his work the title, New Witnesses for God;" and in volume I. presents Joseph Smith, the Prophet, as one of these Witnesses. That is the relationship that Joseph Smith sustains to this generation; and it is the author´s purpose to prove, first, that the world stands in need of such a Witness; and, second, that Joseph Smith is that Witness.
