In The New Testament for Latter-day Saints, Alex Douglas introduces Latter-day Saint readers to the basics of modern New Testament scholarship. Douglas answers the question, “What did the authors of the Bible believe about Jesus?” elucidating the striking diversity in how Jesus is portrayed in the New Testament.
It ranges from authors who saw Jesus as teacher and prophet, to those who worshipped him as God incarnate. Douglas shows how the Bible we have today is a product of these competing voices, each shaped by conflicts within early Christianity. The book also examines how key Christian ideas such as sin, salvation, priesthood authority, and the role of women developed as part of this conflict. Drawing on modern biblical scholarship, it places these portrayals alongside Latter-day Saint beliefs, helping readers see points of alignment and tension.
Ultimately, the book invites readers to wrestle with what it means to see revelation as a process rather than a one-time event. Readers will walk away seeing the New Testament in an entirely different light, as a record of that process.
