Dr. Harrison's lecture explores Doctrine and Covenants sections 20-22, emphasizing the restoration of the Church of Jesus Christ in the latter days. He highlights the role of Joseph Smith as prophet and revelator, called by God to re-establish Christ's true church with its proper ordinances and priesthood authority after a period of apostasy. The lecture underscores the foundational principles revealed, such as the necessity of faith, repentance, baptism by immersion for the remission of sins by those with authority, and partaking of the sacrament. Furthermore, it addresses the unique calling of Joseph Smith, the importance of heeding prophetic guidance, and the requirement of baptism within the restored Church for salvation, rejecting previous covenants and baptisms performed without proper authority. Ultimately, the discourse affirms the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as the only true and living church on the earth, preparing mankind for Christ's return.
