How do these verses demonstrate the love of the Lord and His continued effort in the lives of men?
Joseph Fielding Smith taught
“All revelation since the fall has come through Jesus Christ” (Doctrines of Salvation, comp. Bruce R. McConkie, 3 vols. [1954–56], 1:27).
Gary J. Coleman added:
“The Doctrine and Covenants is a latter-day testament of the ministry of Jesus Christ to the children of God through prophets and servants of God, and it illustrates the divine pattern of revelation that guides the Church and its members today” (“You Shall Have My Word: The Personal Ministry of Jesus Christ in the Restoration,” in You Shall Have My Word: Exploring the Text of the Doctrine and Covenants,ed. Scott C. Esplin, Richard O. Cowan, and Rachel Cope, The 41st Annual Brigham Young University Sidney B. Sperry Symposium [2012], 3).
