Revelation is one of the vital forces within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and is the means by which God communicates with man and by which the Lord Jesus Christ guides his church and its members. Current revelation is perhaps the primary characteristic that distinguishes the Church from other Christian churches.

Symbols are a timeless and universal language God has chosen to teach His gospel, to reveal His covenants and ordinances, and to bear witness of His Son. In that case, why don't we hear more about symbols, and have them explained to our understanding? That is precisely what Gospel Symbolism does. Written for the layman, this book searches the scriptures, disclosing how passage after passage is layered with hitherto unperceived meaning. It shows how these countless types and shadows, the symbolic representations of Christ, assures us of the reality of His existence and the verity of the eternal gospel. And each step of the way, the reader's fascination will increase as the stimulating text opens his eyes to depths of understanding he had not previously imagined.

Joseph Fielding McConkie takes a moving and in-depth look at the birth of the Savior in Witnesses of the Birth of Christ, a book he says he wrote to "put Christ back into Christmas and to increase our faith in this sacred event upon which the verity of the Christian message must rest." The events of the birth of Christ are surrounded by the testimonies of those great and small, of men and women, of those young and old, and of the learned and unlearned. Brother McConkie uses their witnesses of Jesus Christ to demonstrate that we cannot increase our knowledge of these events without increasing our love for the Son of God. "Witnesses of the Birth of Christ brings us to the understanding," he writes, "that every principle of the gospel and every principle that brings faith and hope, that ennobles or gives purpose to suffering or sorrow-is but an appendage to the Father of God and divine Sonship of Christ. These are heaven's gifts to us."
