This edition of the Testimony of St. John is presented as part of the ongoing restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. New light and truth is coming forward in our day, including revelation foretold in prophecy (see T&C 93:7).
"Behold, when ye shall rend that veil of unbelief which doth cause you to remain in your awful state of wickedness, and hardness of heart, and blindness of mind, then shall the great and marvelous things which have been hid up from the foundation of the world from you - yea, when ye shall call upon the Father in my name with a broken heart and a contrite spirit - then shall ye know that the Father hath remembered the covenant which he made unto your fathers, O house of Israel. And then shall my revelations which I have caused to be written by my servant John be unfolded in the eyes of all the people." (Ether 1:19)
This volume contains the complete, restored account of the Testimony of St. John as found in the Restoration Edition (RE) of the Scriptures. It also presents a side-by-side comparative study of the Testimony of St. John juxtaposed with the traditional King James Version (KJV) of The Gospel according to St. John from the New Testament, for the reader to harmonize the different versions of John's testimony found in Scripture. It is hoped that with careful study, this comparison format will reveal to the attentive reader many insightful and enlightening differences between these two versions of John's record.
The intent of this work is to point towards our Lord Jesus Christ and the restoration of His Gospel that continues in our day. The Testimony of St. John adds truth and light that confirms old truths, reveals new ones, and shows the Lord's continuing mercy for us.
