Reviews

[McKay Anderson · Rating 2 out of 5]

A fine book if one is merely beginning their understanding of the gospel. This being its intended outcome, it excels in its purpose. However, if one is looking for doctrinal exposition I would suggest looking elsewhere. Much of the content is derived from quotations and paraphrases of previous works such as The Lectures on Faith or John Taylor’s Mediation and Atonement.

This book was written many years ago. Good thoughts about the gospel.

[Clayton Chase · Rating 4 out of 5]

A sample gem: Three essentials to faith unto salvation - 1) A belief that God exists, 2) A correct understanding of his character and attributes, 3) Knowledge that one's path is pleasing unto Him.
