Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith

The word of the Lord, as revealed through the Prophet Joseph Smith in this dispensation, is interpreted with clarity in the writings and sermons of the Prophet. Joseph Fielding Smith has taken many of the most succinct and important doctrinal statements and compiled them into one volume for ready reference.The statements contained in Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith are arranged by the period in which they were taught, and the reader can readily see the development of the Church as new truths were revealed. In a ministry that spanned just fourteen years, the Prophet was the Lord's instrument in the establishment of a dynamic organization that today is one of the major religions of the world.
