The Restoration of All Things, by President Joseph Fielding Smith, is a compilation of radio sermons over Radio station KSL. “While the series was being given on the air, numerous requests for copies of the addresses came to the radio committee of the Church, and in response several thousand copies were mailed out each week. When the series came to a close appeals were made from many sections of the Church and the nation to have the speeches made available in book form.”
This is the dispensation of times-a period of restitution of all things. President Smith has presented in this volume many of the doctrines and promises revealed to the Church through the restoration of the gospel. Among other things, he discusses the gathering of Israel, the coming of Elijah, the first principles and salvation for the dead; the eternal marriage covenant and eternity of the family; the resurrection of the dead, the mission of Jesus Christ, and the destiny of the earth and man.
As a servant of the Lord holding divine authority, President Smith has called attention through the chapters of this book, to the great and marvelous work which the Lord commenced ion this day, and which shall go on to its conclusion. Not one “jot or title,” he warns shall pass unfulfilled.
