The Lectures on Faith

"The Lectures on Faith" by Jr. Joseph Smith is a set of seven theological lectures first published in 1835. Originally delivered to church elders in the School of the Prophets during winter 1834-35, these lectures explore fundamental doctrines of faith, God's nature and attributes, and the Godhead. They examine how faith drives human action, the necessity of correct knowledge of God, and the ultimate sacrifice required for salvation. Once included in the canonical Doctrine and Covenants, the lectures were later removed by major church branches, though their theological significance remains debated.
