''Selected Manifestations: Being an Unofficial Collection of Temple Dedicatory Prayers, Revelations, Visions, Dreams, Doctrinal Expositions, & Other Inspired Declarations Not Presently Included in the Official Canon of Scriptures Known as the Four Standard Works of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints'' is a 413-page book self-published in 1985 by David M. and Vonda S. Reay. It is a compilation of scarce, non-canonical revelations of leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). ==Contents== The book contains 185 revelations, some of which are very short or intended for a specific individual rather than general readers. The library of the church-owned Brigham Young University (BYU) identifies the book as containing "Private revelations". Each revelation is presented in its own enumerated "section" which is further divided into numbered verses.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=LDS Book Lovers )〕 Although these revelations are excluded from the accepted canon of the LDS Church, they are presented in a very similar format to the church's canonical Doctrine and Covenants (D&C), which also contains revelations of LDS Church leaders divided into "sections" and verses.〔Since the first edition of the Doctrine and Covenants in 1835, each revelation divided into its own enumerated "section", although the earlier Book of Commandments listed each revelation as a "chapter". 〕〔In 1876 Orson Pratt first divided the D&C sections into verses. 〕 The book billed itself as belonging "alongside the four Standard Works" because it contained nearly all the revelations and declarations of the church's Apostles and Prophets that weren't already included in the D&C. The various revelations in the book include: * Vision of the Savior at the School of the Prophets * A Revelation on Copyrights for Church Publications * A Revelation Reproving the Brethren for Not Honoring Official Titles * Remarks to the Twelve on the Endowment * Revelation on Eternal Progress of Mankind Given to Lorenzo Snow * Revelation on the Council of Fifty Giving Full Name * Revelation on the Proper Names of God by Elder Orson Pratt * Revelation on the Design of Temples by President Brigham Young * Vision of the Savior in Gethsemane Given to Orson F. Whitney * Revelation on the Holy Priesthood * Visitations of Joseph the Prophet to President Wilford Woodruff * Vision of Savior in Salt Lake Temple Given to Melvin J. Ballard * Status of Children in the Resurrection by Joseph F. Smith * Power of the Holy Priesthood by President Joseph Fielding Smith * Vision of the Lamanites Given to President Spencer W. Kimball Also included are revelations to David O. McKay and others, and famous speeches from such figures as Boyd K. Packer and Bruce R. McConkie.〔 In addition, the book contained dedication prayers for all the church's Temples at that time, as well as for uncompleted sites, such as Independence, Far West, and Adam-Ondi-Ahman.〔 Among the twelve appendices is a bibliography on the D&C and a list of the Priesthood Courses of Study. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Selected Manifestations」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
