A New Look at Mormonism

About this book

In adopting and using the medium of caricature drawing to tell and depict the story contained in this book, we wish to make the following comments: The drawings of the personages and events are only caricature representations, and are not intended to convey the idea that the individual or event was exactly as drawn. We wish to note especially the fact that God has been portrayed with radiations, Christ with a halo and the angels with broken radiations. These symbolical representations were used primarily as a means of identification. In the interest of brevity and to enable us to tell the whole story in this one book, it was necessary to limit our presentation to only the simple basic facts. Space limitation would not allow us to enlarge on many of the scriptures used and quoted here. This book has been created primarily for the members of the church as a tool in helping to explain the Gospel, and to describe the organization and working methods of the church today. The unusual and interesting illustrations hold the attention and the interest of the young people and investigators alike. To make the Gospel clear to the people Christ used parables; we utilize pictures to accomplish the same purpose. "A New Look At Mormonism" contains a condensed version of the Gospel Story beginning at the Spirit World before we were born and ending in the Celestial Kingdom of our next life. All the members of the church have been asked to inform their friends and neighbors about the Church, and we believe this book will help each and every family in fulfilling this important missionary work. The illustrations are a powerful teaching tool and make the book a very appropriate gift for any occasion. - Preface.
