A rational theology, as understood in this volume, is a 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. This volume is an exposition; it is not an argument. The p...

Those unfamiliar with the genius and personality of Brigham Young will find this volume a wonderful introduction to both the man and his message. Excerpts from his many discourses have been arranged to show the coherent system of faith which he taught and which enabled him and those he led to triumph over great opposition in proclaiming the gospel and the building the kingdom. Here are Brother Brigham's pronouncements on the personality of God, revelation, eternal progression, the last day...

Originally written in the 1915 and having undergone several revisions since, A Rational Theology was written by Mormon scientist - and later apostle - John A Widtsoe.

During the many years of this spoken and printed ministry, very much has been said regarding the Church. This has led to not a few enquiries for advice from many who are in difficulty over this matter. Many of the enquirers are in responsible positions in the Lord's work.

I am well aware that what will be said will represent for multitudes of Christians today no less an upheaval and revolution than that which was presented at the beginning by the transition from Judaism to a fully-fledged Christianity as presented by the Apostles when they were through that transition and interpreted the significance of Christ.

And there are such times in the life of the Lord’s people continually, times when things have come to a turn...
