A Rational Theology by John A. Widstoe

A Rational Theology by John A. Widstoe   203 pages
 “A rational theology, as understood in this volume, is the theology which (1) is based on fundamental principles that harmonize with the knowledge and reason of man (2) derives all of its laws, ordinances and authority from the accepted fundamental principles, and (3) finds expression and use in the everyday life of man.  In short, a rational theology is derived from the invariable laws of the universe, and exists for the good of man.”

Israel! Do You Know? By LeGrand Richards

Israel! Do You Know? By LeGrand Richards 254 pages
What is the destiny of the descendants of Judah, whom we know as the Jews? Who are they, and what are God’s promises to them?
 In Israel! Do You Know? Elder LeGrand Richards of the Council of the Twelve Apostles, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, writes convincingly and forcefully of the inescapable and interlocking destiny of the tribe of Judah and of the tribe of Joseph through Ephraim and Manasseh.
 “It is doubtful whether God has ever provided more detailed information, more divine signposts along the way of life, that He has provided for the descendants of Judah,” the preface states. “Hope for the descendants of Judah is predicated upon their willingness to recognize themselves in the picture that God has unerringly outlined in detail through His holy prophets almost since time began.”
 The prophets of Judah have outlined, in detail, the part their people will play in the great religious drama of the latter days. In Israel! Do You Know? the author has undertaken the challenging task of placing the prophecies of the past in their undeniable relationship to the fast-moving events of the present and the promising future.
