Dye, David A.; CHANGES IN BRUCE R. MCCONKIE'S MORMON DOCTRINE - A Comparison of the 1958 & 1966 Editions - a Comparative Study
2007, Paperback, New,
Brand new softcover book! ; In 1958, Elder Bruce R. McConkie of the First Quorum of the Seventy published a book entitled Mormon Doctrine. Some of the leading brethren of the Church were not pleased with what was written. After speaking with him about it, he was asked to either make some changes or to not print it again. He chose, for eight years, to leave it out of print. Then he began to reconsider, weighing the benefits of making the changes vs. Not getting the information out to the people. He decided to make the myriad of changes requested of him, having primarily to do with the Catholic Church. Other changes were made, with additions and deletions. Of all the time-honored works in Mormon literature, Mormon Doctrine ranks among the most well-known and authoritative references of all time. Most people are aware of the "sketchy past" of the book, but know little about the true story. Many questions remain about the book: What are the differences between the 1958 and 1966 editions? What led to the changes? Did the doctrine change, or just what was written? These and other questions are answered within the pages of this book. The gospel student will read what was originally written in the 1956 version, and then what was written in the 1966 version. A plethora of supporting documentation, including letters, quotes and a discourse, are also included in this book. In this book, you will read, side by side, the changes that were made between the first and second edition. This offers an insightful glimpse into the thinking of the 1960's, when the more liberal elements of society seemed to come into play in the Church, such as the negro and the Priesthood, the women's lib movement, etc. Extremely useful for the student of modern Mormon history! ; 6" x 9"; 187 pages,

Dye, David A.; Why We Practice Plural Marriage -
Hindsight Publications, 2009, Paperback, New,
Brand new softcover book! By Mormon Wife and Mother, Helen Mar Whitney. Originally Published by the Juvenile Instructors office, 1884, Plus other Important Discourses & Writings on the subject of Celestial Marriage. ; As a clinical social worker who has spent countless hours with couples in marital therapy, I have seen firsthand the awful situation that our marriages and thus our homes, our family, & our society is in. It's all about 'me' and only figuratively about 'you.' We have become self-serving to the degree that we cannot see that even our best efforts to serve others have at their core a 'me' attitude. But, although this is the case doesn't mean that it has to be so. There is a way to remove the 'blinders' which limit our vision. The principle is to become humble. And one of the mechanisms for encouraging this humbleness is to consider that an eternal principle of the gospel, and one which is equally as effective for both men and women, is the principle of celestial plural marriage. Found within the pages or this book are one books, four chapters or articles of publication, three discourses, and one political document. The book, "Why We Practice Plural Marriage," by Helen Mar Whitney, was first published in 1884. It is a spirited testimony of why plural marriage is practiced among the Saints of God. The shorted publications included within this book include an article printed in the Millennial Star by Belinda Pratt entitled The Defense of Polygamy. The second short article is by Apostle Orson Pratt entitled Twenty-Seven Rules of Celestial Marriage. The third is a publication by John Taylor title The Origin and Destiny of Woman. The fourth is actually a revelation received by president John Taylor in 1886, and aptly named the 1886 Revelation. There are three discourses herein. The first was given by Joseph F. Smith and titled Plural Marriage is Imperative for Exaltation. The second is a collection of excerpts from talks by John Taylor. The third is a discourse by apostle Parley P. Pratt and entitled Celestial Family Organization. The last section of the book includes the text of an oath which the women in Utah, in the 1800's, were required to sign in order to vote. For the thirst of a strong testimony and increased enlightening o this most interesting of subjects, the contents of this book will help to quench the parched thirsty feeling so often prevalent due to the "watering down" of so many of the hearty doctrines and teachings of years gone by. ; 6" x 9"; 162 pages,
