このコンテンツについて
“Amazingly enough, Christ is the Jehovah of the Old Testament and the God of Israel. It was Christ who led the nation of Israel out of Egyptian bondage, and it was he who gave and fulfilled the Law of Moses.” (Chapter 15: Christ)
This book is different from other books about the Latter-day Saints (LDS) in at least two ways. First, it focuses on details of LDS doctrine that are relatively unknown, even to church members. Second, because its purpose is to inform, not persuade, it presents these details in a neutral, unflinching, warts-and-all way. The listener can then decide for him or herself what to believe.
As Jensen states in his introduction, he wrote the book for three audiences.
First, he wrote it for himself. Although he grew up in the church and served a church mission, he was often confused about the more cryptic points of LDS doctrine, of which there are many. For example, if someone had asked him to explain in detail the LDS position on angels, or Jews, or Zion, he knew he wouldn’t have been able to. So he wrote the book to understand—to “get to the bottom of”—the church's more obscure beliefs and follow the implications to their logical conclusion.
Second, he wrote it for non-Mormons who are curious about the religion and seek a book that is unbiased and informative while also being light and enjoyable.
Third, he wrote it for members of the church who are fuzzy on the details of the topics discussed in the book and would like to understand them better. The church has always placed great stock in education, especially as it relates to God’s plans for us. This book will help educate church members on the finer points of their doctrine–on what one actually believes, or ought to believe, as a Latter-day Saint.
