Jesus the Christ

A sustained, 42-chapter doctrinal study of the life, mission, and ministry of Jesus Christ - grounded in scripture and Latter-day Saint theology. First published in 1915 by James E. Talmage, Jesus the Christ moves chronologically from the premortal role of the Messiah through his earthly ministry, atoning sacrifice, and resurrection. Each chapter treats a distinct period or doctrinal theme - Galilee, parables, priesthood authority, the final week - drawing on both ancient and modern scripture to build a coherent portrait of Christ's identity and purpose. The result is a work that helps clarify how Latter-day Saint theology frames the Savior's teachings on prayer, discipleship, and redemption within a broader scriptural narrative. Whether used in personal study or as a chapter-by-chapter companion for group discussion, the book remains one of the most widely referenced doctrinal treatments of Jesus Christ in the Latter-day Saint tradition.
