description: The Seventy’s Course in Theology is one of the most important works of Mormon theology in the 20th Century, and its author, B. H Roberts, continues to be held as a leading LDS philosophical and theological thinker. It was intended as an instruction manual for those individuals who were called and ordained to the office of "Seventy" within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The volumes contain a variety of instructional aides, theological discussion, and lessons which are as valuable in the 21st century as they were when first compiled. First year: Outline history of the Seventy and a survey of the books of Holy ScriptureSecond year: Outline history of the dispensations of the GospelThird year: The Doctrine of DietyFourth year: The AtonementFifth year: Divine Immanence and the Holy Ghost New description describing published version from Kofford Classics available from Barnes and Noble in eBook version: In the opening pages of the first volume in the Seventy's Course in Theology, B.H. Roberts states that, "To become a Seventy means mental activity, intellectual development, and the attainment of spiritual power." Making the Seventy's Quorums of the Mormon Church of his day the equal of their scriptural predecessors was one of the goals of these volumes. Designed to be used over a five-year period, these volumes were to be used to teach the Seventies the history of their own calling, a survey of the holy scriptures, a history of the dispensations of the Gospel, the Doctrine of Deity, the Atonement, and of the concept of Divine Immanence and the Holy Ghost.*This version represents a reprint version which features a different name than the original book. Volume 5 refers to its order in the Prominent Works series and not to the volumes of the Seventy's Course. This is the default version for all other versions, to include the original, custom bound, eBooks and ePubs, and reprints as listed in the other versions section because it is the most shelved book of the various editions.
