520 _a"Mormon Doctrine Plain and Simple; Or, Leaves from the Tree of Life" by Chas. W. Penrose is a religious and doctrinal exposition written in the late 19th century. The work aims to clarify aspects of "Mormonism"—a term that the author argues is a misnomer—by outlining the fundamental beliefs of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Through a series of chapters titled "leaves," the book delves into important theological concepts, including the nature of God, faith, repentance, baptism, the priesthood, and the resurrection. The opening of the text sets the stage by addressing the misconceptions surrounding Mormon doctrine and defining the term "Mormonism." It emphasizes the critical nature of truth in religious belief and posits that there is only one true religion ordained by God. Penrose outlines the necessity of faith and the divine authority behind church practices, asserting that the priesthood's role is essential for administering gospel ordinances. The author calls for attentive consideration from both adherents and inquirers of the faith, suggesting that understanding this doctrine can lead to spiritual enlightenment and the healing of humanity from misconceptions and errors.
