Study Guide for D&C 1- 76
Study Guide Religion 324 Doctrine and Covenants 1-76 Dr. Craig James Ostler You may wish to answer these questions in writing and/or mark them in the scriptures. I will not require that you turn them into me. In general, quizzes and exams will be taken from these questions and our class discussions. The following checklist will help you with the requirements of what you should know about each section. * Know the information given in the historical backgrounds and the revelations that follow. Look for connections between the context and the content of the revelations. The Historical Background material in the Student Manual is useful in making these connections. * Be able to identify on a map all of the important locations referred to in the revelations and the historical backgrounds. * Know the people of the Doctrine and Covenants (Many of the following questions will help you to review their names and their involvement in the revelations of the Doctrine Covenants.) I suggest that you purchase a marker of another color besides red to highlight the names of the people involved in the revelations. Additionally, you should always answer the following questions with each study of the scriptures: * What did I learn about the Restoration of the gospel from my study? * What is the most important principle taught in this revelation? * What other important principles are taught in this revelation? * What examples from your experience help you to understand one of those principles? * Do you have a brief testimony that you can share regarding one of those principles? Please, record that brief testimony.
* What situations exist today that relate to the circumstances and/or the principles in this revelation?
* What questions do I have from my study?
