This special edition of the Lectures on Faith from Zion’s Camp Books is formatted for convenience on an eReader, with more than 100 internal links to scriptures and citations. We hope it will give you a great reading experience! The Lectures on Faith were originally prepared as materials for the School of the Prophets in Kirtland, Ohio in 1834 and were included in the Doctrine and Covenants from 1835 to 1921. Although the Lectures on Faith have never been accepted as revelation by the body of the church (and so were removed from the Doctrine and Covenants in 1921), they contain important doctrinal insights that can help anyone seeking to learn more about faith and come closer to Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. President Joseph Fielding Smith noted, “I suppose that the rising generation knows little about the Lectures on Faith. . . . In my own judgment, these Lectures are of great value and should be studied. . . . I consider them to be of extreme value in the study of the gospel of Jesus Christ.” (Joseph Fielding Smith, Seek Ye Earnestly. Salt Lake City: Deseret Book, 1970.) Elder Bruce R. McConkie of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles has stated the lectures contain “some of the best lesson material ever prepared on the Godhead; on the character, perfections, and attributes of God; on faith, miracles, and sacrifice. They can be studied with great profit by all gospel scholars.” (Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine. Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1966.)

What are the differences between the practices of Mormonism and the Bible? Is the Jesus of the Mormon Church the Jesus of the Bible? In Mormonism Jesus is a man who became one of many gods. Biblical Christianity teaches Jesus was always God, and that there is only one God. Why is it most Mormons do not talk about these and other controversial differences? Further, Mormon teachings consider the Book of Mormon as equal to the Bible and accept several other books as inspired writings. What is the historical evidence to support these writings? What about accusations of borrowing from other writings or religious traditions? Why is it most Mormons do not talk about these and other controversial differences? This and much more is included in this study. You�ll find yourself more equipped in your own beliefs and be better prepared to discuss your faith with Mormons.
