Book
Thick 8vo. xv+685pp., illustrations, notes, appendices, index. Converts to Joseph Smith's 1828 Mormon restoration movement were attracted to the non-hierarchical nature of the venture. It wa sprecisely because there were no priests, ordinances, or dogma taht people were drawn in such numbers. Smith intended everyone to be a prophet, and anyone who felt called was invited to minister freely, wothout formal office. At the time of Smith's martyrdom in 1844, the Church had developed five leading quorums of authority, and it was Brigham Young's Quorum of the Twelve that moved decisively to eliminate contenders for the presidency and continue Smith's political and doctrinal innovations and social stratification. Young's 20th-century legacy is a well-defined structure without the charismatic spotanaeity or egalitarian chaos of early Mormonism. Historian D. Michael Quinn examines the contradictions and confusion of the first tumultuous decades of Latter-day Saint history. he demonstrates how events and doctrines were silently, retroactively inserted into the published form of the scriptures and official records to smooth out a stormy and often haphazard development. The bureaucratization of Mormonism was inevitable, but the manner in which this occurred was unpredictable and fascinating. Cloth in dust jacket. Light shelfwear. Very good.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New Dust Jacket. Brand new hardcover book! Never been read! ; Converts to Joseph Smith's 1828 restoration of primitive Christianity were attracted to the non-hierarchical nature of the movement. It was precisely because there were no priests, ordinances, or dogma that people joined in such numbers. Smith intended everyone to be a prophet, and anyone who felt called was invited to minister freely without formal office. Not until seven years later did Mormons first learn that authority had been restored by angels or of the need for a hierarchy mirroring the Pauline model. That same year (1835) a Quorum of Twelve Apostles was organized, but their jurisdiction was limited to areas outside established stakes (dioceses). Stakes were led by a president, who oversaw spiritual development, and by a bishop, who supervised temporal needs. At Smith's martyrdom in 1844, the church had five leading quorums of authority. The most obvious successor to Smith, Illinois stake president William Marks, opposed the secret rites of polygamy, anointing, endowments, and the clandestine political activity that had characterized the church in Illinois. The secret Council of Fifty had recently ordained Smith as King on Earth and sent ambassadors abroad to form alliances against the United States. The majority of church members knew nothing of these developments, but they followed Brigham Young, head of the Quorum of the Twelve, who spoke forcefully and moved decisively to eliminate contenders for the presidency. He continued to build on Smith's political and doctrinal innovations and social stratification. Young's twentieth-century legacy is a well-defined structure without the charismatic spontaneity or egalitarian chaos of the early church. Historian D. Michael Quinn examines the contradictions and confusion of the first two tumultuous decades of LDS history. He demonstrates how events and doctrines were silently, retroactively inserted into the published form of scriptures and records to smooth out the stormy, haphazard development.
