Summary: The wait is over!
Review: "This book is about the Lord Jesus Christ and the plan of salvation. There is nothing new here." (vii)Elder Oaks's fans have been waiting for this. It is a collection of many of his General Conference and BYU Devotional addresses. Included are "Sins And Mistakes," "Our Strengths Can Be Our Downfall," and "Have You Been Saved?" I recommend "Another Testament Of Jesus Christ" as the greatest summary of The Book of Mormon and President Ezra Taft Benson's ministry. I carry a Xerox of this talk around in my church bag and frequently review it. I appreciate Elder Oaks for covering some of the non-standard topics, and approaching the topics in a very logical and orderly fashion that betrays his judicial background. The only criticism I have is that his paper on homosexuality is missing from the book. His talk, called "Following The Pioneers," with the classic phrase "Therefore, What?" is also absent. Am I compiling his next book? This book is a good doctrinal supplement, and makes great mulligan stew to have with the Bread of Life.
