The Prophecies of Joseph Smith, [used]

Description

The Prophecies of Joseph Smith, [used] by Duane Crowther (1963)

Jeremiah, prophet to ancient Judah, said it: “When the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall the prophet be known, that the Lord hath truly sent him.” Fulfillment of prophecy is the test which has been applied through the ages to identify those who truly speak in the name of God.

The Prophecies of Joseph Smith is written to bear witness that the Lord has spoken, in these last days, through Joseph Sr-Rith, the Mormon prophet. Contained in this book are hundreds of prophetic statements which have seen full and complete fulfillment.

This unique volume cites the prophecies, describes the circumstances under which they were uttered, and then explains in detail how they were fulfilled. Not only does it report many of the prophecies made by Joseph Smith, it also documents many prophecies made by others about Joseph. The scriptures, too, contain numerous prophecies about Joseph Smith and about the restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ in which Joseph played a prominent role. Almost 200 of the prophecies cited are from the Bible or other scriptural sources, and the exact nature of the fulfillment of these scriptural prophecies is also recorded.

Included in the book are many detailed maps and outlines which show the major events in Joseph’s life, and correlate those events with key LDS historical sources. Also included are numerous charts, photographs and drawings which explain major prophecies, doctrinal principles, and historical events. The book is rich in historical data and the narrative is written in a smooth, readable style that will hold the interest of both young and old.

Here is a volume filled with rich insights and new understandings for the seeker of truth. In this time of confusion, it provides knowledge and stability to those who are searching for a personal testimony of God’s ministration to His people through prophets today.
