New Witnesses for God*

5b Elder B. H. Roberts, First Edition, three volume set

Notes

New Witnesses for God by B.H. Roberts is a three-volume set that provides a comprehensive defense of the truthfulness and divine origins of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Written by Elder B.H. Roberts, a noted LDS theologian and historian, the work is divided as follows:

1. Volume 1 focuses on the life and prophecies of Joseph Smith, providing evidence to support his role as a prophet and the founder of the LDS Church. Roberts details Smith's revelations, his translation of the Book of Mormon, and his establishment of the church.

2. Volume 2 examines the divine authenticity of the Book of Mormon. Roberts offers a scholarly defense of the book’s origin and its role as a second witness to the Bible, addressing criticisms and highlighting its theological significance within the LDS faith.

3. Volume 3 presents the testimonies of other early church leaders and prophets, reinforcing the claim that their revelations and experiences serve as additional witnesses for the truthfulness of the gospel. Roberts also addresses issues related to the Restoration and its contrast with traditional Christian doctrines.

This three-volume work is a significant contribution to LDS apologetics, providing a well-researched and passionate defense of the faith.
