'Great Apostasy: Considered in the Light of Scriptural and Secular History' Summary
This book, written by Elder James E. Talmage, an apostle of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, explores the Latter-day Saint understanding of the Great Apostasy. Talmage examines the establishment of Christ's church in the first century, the reasons for its decline, and the predictions of its eventual restoration. He uses scriptural and secular history to support his arguments, tracing the development of Christianity from its origins to the rise of Mormonism in the 19th century. The book concludes with a detailed account of the Restoration of the Church of Jesus Christ by Joseph Smith, presenting the Latter-day Saint perspective on the significance of this event.Book Details
