Nibley: On the Timely and the Timeless

Hugh Nibley

RSC BYU - Covenant Communications, Inc.

In this collection of essays, first broadcast on radio in 1954, Nibley responds to those who challenge the right of members of the LDS church to call themselves Christians. He points out identities of doctrines, practices, and institutions between Latter-day Saint Christians and the early Christians. And he describes how Christ's church changed from an organization with inspired prophets into a thoroughly different institution built upon the learning of men.

From the outset of his career, Dr. Hugh Nibley has been centrally concerned with primitive Christianity, especially the shadowy era between the New Testament proper and the emergence and the triumph of the Catholic Church and Holy Roman Empire. That is the era treated in the nine essays collected in this volume.The essays cover such subjects as early accounts of Jesus' childhood, the Savior's forty-day ministry after his resurrection, baptism for the dead in ancient times, the passing of the primitive church, and the early Christian prayer circle.Each essay examines the close connection between the practices and the doctrines of the early Church and the Church of the latter days. Each essay has been reedited, and all the original sources have been rechecked. Many of the conclusions and arguments in these articles will stand in future scholarship; others will be discarded. But Hugh Nibley's work has laid the foundation for all further discussion.Hard Cover.

Mormonism and Early Christianity (Collected Works of Hugh Nibley)

Much can be learned from the New Testament and other early Christian sources about the powers, duties, and desired attributes of those who originally held the offices of apostle and bishop. Catholics claim that Peter was the first bishop of Rome, and Eastern Orthodox Christians assert that he was the first bishop of Antioch. But does either position reflect the apostolic or episcopal offices completely or correctly? What, really was the role of bishops, and what was their relationship with apostles in the early Christian church? It is hard to imagine anyone better than Hugh Nibley to shed light on this challenging and intriguing topic

Teachings of the Book of Mormon (part three)

Hugh W. Nibley, a gifted scholar, educator, and lecturer, has been delighting and motivating Latter-day Saints for decades. A prolific writer, a keen and witty observer, and a relentless critic of the worldly, he has led Church members of all ages to deeper understanding and commitment to the gospel of Jesus Christ. In this collection, Brother Nibley presents two classic talks, "Temples Everywhere" and "What Is a Temple?" He speaks of the common themes of temple worship throughout the ages. He states: "As with us, one went to the temple for an endowment. That is to be given all the equipment, information, and certification he would need to make the passage from this world to the next." Brother Nibley describes the temple as the place we go to get our bearing on the universe. Hugh Nibley Speaks on Temples will be a valuable addition to every audio library.
