Church History 1805 to 1832. This volume is the first of three on Church History and the Doctrine and Covenants. It covers Church history and the revelations in the Doctrine and Covenants from the birth of Joseph Smith in 1805 through the beginnings of the Kirtland and Missouri periods. We learn concerning the First Vision; the coming forth of the Book of Mormon; the restoration of the priesthood; and many early revelations given to individual members of the Church. We study the organization of the Church in 1830 and the migration of the Saints to Kirtland; Ohio; where the law and order of the Church is given; the law of consecration begins; and spiritual gifts are manifested. We also read concerning the early events in Missouri; where the land of Zion is dedicated for the gathering of the Saints. In all; it covers 27 years of Church History; and covers sections 1-99 of the Doctrine and Covenants and the Joseph Smith History in the Pearl of Great Price. The cover features “Young Joseph;†a painting of the Prophet Joseph Smith pondering in the Sacred Grove; by Walter Rane. Table of Contents: Ch. Title Scripture Refs1.
