The Truth About Volume 1

The Truth About… Volume 1: Foundations > What if everything you've been taught about the beginning is only half the story? > In this groundbreaking first volume, Dr. Andries B. Louw D.D. takes the reader on a journey from the very dawn of creation to the restoration of all things. With unflinching honesty and meticulous research, he tackles the questions that mainstream Christianity and even mainstream Latter-day Saint scholarship have often avoided: > What was our existence before this world began?<br> Did a literal Creator shape the heavens and the earth — or are faith and science irreconcilable?<br> What does scripture actually teach about the shape of the earth?<br> What is the true, sacred Name of the Almighty — and why has it been hidden?<br> Who are the Father and the Son, and what are the Kingdoms of Glory?<br> What does the Book of Mormon really teach — and what lies within the Sealed Portion?<br> Where is the Restored Branch of Jesus Christ today?<br> What are the Holy Books in Mormonism and Christianity?<br> What is the Church of the Firstborn?<br> What is the significance of the Lord's Feasts?<br> Whom do you truly serve? > Written for both the seeking Christian and the dedicated Latter-day Saint, this volume cuts through creeds, traditions, and theological clutter to return to the simplicity and power of the original restoration. Every chapter is rooted in scripture — the Bible, the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Joseph Smith Translation — while drawing on ancient manuscripts, the Pearl of Great Price, and the revelations of the Prophet Joseph Smith. > This is not a book for the faint of heart. It is a book for those who truly want to know the truth — no matter where it leads. For the Lord hath said: "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." > This is Volume 1 of 3.
