Download or read book Teachings of Presidents of the Church Brigham Young written by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and published by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. This book was released on with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prophet Brigham Young taught the restored gospel of Jesus Christ in a basic, practical way that gave inspiration and hope to the Saints struggling to build a home in the wilderness. Though more than a century has now passed, his words are still fresh and appropriate for us today as we continue the work of building the kingdom of God. President Young declared that as members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints we possess the “doctrine of life and salvation for all the honest-in-heart” (DBY, 7). He promised that those who receive the gospel in their hearts will have awakened “within them a desire to know and understand the things of God more than they ever did before in their lives” and will begin to “inquire, read and search and when they go to their Father in the name of Jesus he will not leave them without a witness” (DBY, 450). This book reflects the desire of the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles to deepen the doctrinal understanding of Church members and to awaken within them a greater desire to know the things of God. It will inspire and motivate individuals, priesthood quorums, and Relief Society classes to inquire, read, search, and then go to their Father in Heaven for a witness of the truth of these teachings. Each chapter contains two sections—“Teachings of Brigham Young” and “Suggestions for Study.” The first section consists of extracts from Brigham Young’s sermons to the early Saints. Each statement has been referenced, and the original spelling and punctuation have been preserved; however, the sources cited will not be readily available to most members. These original sources are not necessary to have in order to effectively study or teach from this book. Members need not purchase additional references and commentaries to study or teach these chapters. The text provided in this book, accompanied by the scriptures, is sufficient for instruction. Members should prayerfully read and study President Young’s teachings in order to gain new insights into gospel principles and discover how those principles apply to their everyday lives. By faithfully and prayerfully studying these selections, Latter-day Saints will have a greater understanding of gospel principles and will more fully appreciate the profound and inspired teachings of this great prophet. The second section of each chapter offers a series of questions that will encourage thoughtful contemplation, personal application, and discussion of President Young’s teachings. Members should refer to and carefully reread his words on the principle being discussed. Deep and prayerful study of these teachings will inspire members to greater personal commitment and will help them resolve to follow the teachings of the Savior, Jesus Christ. If individuals and families prayerfully follow the principles in this book, they will be blessed and inspired to greater dedication and spirituality, as were the early Saints who heard these words directly from the lips of the “Lion of the Lord” (HC, 7:434)—the prophet, seer, and revelator, President Brigham Young.

Book excerpt: The author of Desiring God reveals the biblical evidence to help us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him. Includes a study guide for individual and small-group use. Isn’t it true—we really don’t know someone until we understand what makes that person happy? And so it is with God! What does bring delight to the happiest Being in the universe? John Piper writes, that it’s only when we know what makes God glad that we’ll know the greatness of His glory. Therefore, we must comprehend “the pleasures of God.” Unlike so much of what is written today, this is not a book about us. It is about the One we were made for—God Himself. In this theological masterpiece—chosen by World Magazine as one of the 20th Century’s top 100 books, John Piper reveals the biblical evidence to help us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him. Then we will be able to drink deeply—and satisfyingly—from the only well that offers living water. What followers of Jesus need now, more than anything else, is to know and love—behold and embrace—the great, glorious, sovereign, happy God of the Bible. “This is a unique and precious book that everybody should read more than once.” —J.I. PACKER, Regent College, Vancouver, British Columbia

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do 9 out of 10 children raised in Christian homes leave the Church? Why do many professing Christians show little or no evidence for their faith? Why do 80-90% of those making decisions for Christ fall away from the faith? For decades, the world's most popular gospel message has been drawing the lost by promising God's wonderful plan for their life. But behind the facade of the "wonderful plan" message is the reality of the trials, temptation, and persecution that Jesus promised. How can we reconcile the two? In this life-changing book, best-selling author Ray Comfort explores whether this common gospel approach aligns with real life--and with Scripture. The vital biblical principles he reveals will force you to reexamine your ideas about the gospel--and will teach you how to reach unbelievers the way God intended. A must-read for all who care about the lost. Over a quarter million copies in print!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is hoped that you have had the chance to read eBooks 1 and 2. We can see that our Heavenly Father has a plan for us to follow that will in time and with our desire will lead us back to Him. Now, the question is. What is the plan and where do we find it? It is to be found in the Gospel, “The Good News of God” as taught in the scriptures and by the Apostles and Prophets of God both ancient and modern. In this eBook we will find some answers as to How God is Known, what kind of being God is. We will now begin to unlock some of the unknowns and mysteries that we all want and need to learn. The importance of our lifetime on Earth cannot be overstated. This Is the time given to each of us to work out our own Salvation. Each one of us as individuals must show what we want to become. What that means is we can use our agency to decide just what type of life we want to live throughout all eternity. Do we want to believe and follow the teachings of Jesus Christ or follow the lifestyle of the adversary,” Satan”? Ancient apostles have said, do not procrastinate the day of your repentance. Today is the day to prepare to meet God. All are born into this life with the spirit or the light of Christ in them. It follows then that if we but follow and listen to that spirit it will lead us back to Christ. All are loved by Him, and it is His work and glory to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of all humanity. It is the object and purpose of this series of eBooks to add to our storehouse of knowledge of the life of Jesus Christ. We are told that a man can be saved no faster than he gains knowledge of Jesus Christ, His commandments and lives them. When the Lord speaks of being saved, He means to be worthy of returning to and living with Him. The natural man within us all, is an enemy of God and wants to move us away from this light of Christ. Satan is real and his influence on us is strong. We must seek out true knowledge from all who know truths and learn from them. God has a plan and He told and taught us about this plan in a pre-existent time before we were born on this earth. We used our eternal agency to decide if we wanted to believe and follow Him or not, in that pre-existent time. All who used that agency and chose to follow the plan were chosen to be born on this earth and receive a mortal body. Those who chose to not accept were denied a mortal body and were cast out. All those outcasts are now here on this earth without mortal bodies and are tempting us to deny Christ and live corrupt lives, we will learn more about all of this as we go along. The first eBook “The Pre-existence” (1st Estate) was to give us a better understanding of where we came from and the plan that has been established by God to allow us to be tested and move us ever closer to our goal of exaltation. In the second eBook, “Earth Life” (2nd Estate), we gained answers to the question of why we are here. We gained a much better understanding of this probationary time and just how important it is to our Salvation. We must not waste this time but learn to feast on the words of Christ. The Lord has not left us alone in obtaining a greater understanding and knowledge of God’s Plan for all His children. The ancient and latter-day Apostles and Prophets have given us direction of what we should do. This third eBook titled “The Gospel or The Good News of God” will teach us more of what we need to do. It is quite simple. We need to “Read, Ponder and Pray,” about all that we are learning and ask God if these things are true. He will manifest the truth of all things to each of us in His own time and in His own way through the power of the Holy Ghost. We will learn more of this Holy Ghost in future eBooks. After learning of these truths and commandments we must live them so we will be worthy to return to and live with Him. Read on now a enjoy.
