| Summary | "The Restoration of the Gospel" by Osborne J. P. Widtsoe is a religious text written in the early 20th century. The work discusses the restoration of the Gospel according to the beliefs of the Latter-day Saints, focusing on the events leading to the re-establishment of divine authority and the organization of the Church. The book addresses the historical decline of the original Christian teachings, emphasizing the necessity of a restoration through prophetic visions and heavenly messengers. The opening of this text introduces the early background of Joseph Smith, who initiated the restoration of the Gospel amid a wave of religious revival in 1820. The narrative recounts Smith's profound spiritual quest for truth, leading to his First Vision, where he encountered God and Jesus Christ, who directed him to join none of the existing denominations of the time. This experience marked the beginning of his divine mission, establishing Smith as a prophet tasked with restoring the true Gospel to humanity. The subsequent visits from the angel Moroni and the promise of the Book of Mormon unfold as significant elements in this foundational account, setting the stage for the forthcoming chapters that explore the principles and doctrines that constitute the restored faith.
