Abstract

Today, Scott and Casey delve into Doctrine and Covenants 1. This section is placed chronologically out of time, but serves as an introduction to the entire volume of scripture. Once again, they focus on the four C's: Context, Content, Controversies, and Consequences. According to D&C 1, The Doctrine and Covenants serves as a manual for understanding God's work and establishing His covenant with His people. They go over the controversy around the phrase "the only true and living church." Some view this rhetoric as exclusive, so Scott and Casey explore its likely intended meaning.
