{"product_id":"2940157793258","title":"Jesus the Christ: A Study of the Messiah and His Mission According to Holy Scriptures Both Ancient and Modern","description":"The scope of the subject presented in this work is expressed on the\u003cbr\u003etitle page. It will be readily seen that the author has departed from\u003cbr\u003ethe course usually followed by writers on the Life of Jesus Christ,\u003cbr\u003ewhich course, as a rule, begins with the birth of Mary's Babe and ends\u003cbr\u003ewith the ascension of the slain and risen Lord from Olivet. The\u003cbr\u003etreatment embodied in these pages, in addition to the narrative of the\u003cbr\u003eLord's life in the flesh comprizes the antemortal existence and\u003cbr\u003eactivities of the world's Redeemer, the revelations and personal\u003cbr\u003emanifestations of the glorified and exalted Son of God during the\u003cbr\u003eapostolic period of old and in modern times, the assured nearness of the\u003cbr\u003eLord's second advent, and predicted events beyond--all so far as the\u003cbr\u003eHoly Scriptures make plain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is particularly congruous and appropriate that the Church of Jesus\u003cbr\u003eChrist of Latter-day Saints--the only Church that affirms authority\u003cbr\u003ebased on specific revelation and commission to use the Lord's Holy Name\u003cbr\u003eas a distinctive designation--should set forth her doctrines concerning\u003cbr\u003ethe Messiah and His mission.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author of this volume entered upon his welcome service under request\u003cbr\u003eand appointment from the presiding authorities of the Church; and the\u003cbr\u003ecompleted work has been read to and is approved by the First Presidency\u003cbr\u003eand the Council of the Twelve. It presents, however, the writer's\u003cbr\u003epersonal belief and profoundest conviction as to the truth of what he\u003cbr\u003ehas written. The book is published by the Church of Jesus Christ of\u003cbr\u003eLatter-day Saints.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA characteristic feature of the work is the guidance afforded by modern\u003cbr\u003escriptures and the explication of the Holy Writ of olden times in the\u003cbr\u003elight of present day revelation, which, as a powerful and well directed\u003cbr\u003ebeam, illumines many dark passages of ancient construction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe spirit of the sacredness inherent in the subject has been a constant\u003cbr\u003ecompanion of the writer throughout his pleasing labor, and he reverently\u003cbr\u003einvokes the same as a minister to the readers of the volume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJAMES E.
