God And The Holy Trinity Reference
References
In the “References” following the several chapters, but a few of the scriptural passages relating to the subject are assembled. The passages are frequently condensed and therefore are not presented as full or otherwise exact quotations, the purpose being to indicate only the subject of each citation. The sequence is that of convenience in study, related scriptures being brought together in some instances. When the need of subject relationship is not strong, the citations are arranged in the order of the Standard Works-1, Bible; 2, Book of Mormon; 3, Doctrine and Covenants (D&C); and 4, Pearl of Great Price (P. of G.P.).
