Official Doctrine, In Spanish Only?

[_Aristotle Smith]

I invite one and all to take a look at the publisher of this Spanish version of Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith:

http://www.amazon.com/Ensenanzas-Del-Pr ... B001DUD04Y

Yep, it seems to be published by the LDS church. I heard this mentioned while I was watching an unrelated You Tube video (go to the 12 min mark or so). Since publication by the church press seems to be a mark of official doctrine for some posters around here I have a question:

Is this official doctrine and if so, is it official doctrine in Spanish only?

Maybe I'm not understanding your point, but it appears this is simply a Spanish translation of this book:

The difference is that the Spanish edition bears a church copyright and therefore falls under the current definition of "official doctrine." The English version is not published by the church.

Thanks Runtu, that's what I meant. I should have been more specific.

Okay, thanks. Interesting.

D&C 107:91 And again, the duty of the President of the office of the High Priesthood is to preside over the whole church, and to be like unto Moses—
D&C 107:92 Behold, here is wisdom; yea, to be a seer, a revelator, a translator, and a prophet, having all the gifts of God which he bestows upon the head of the church.

D&C 21:1 Behold, there shall be a a record kept among you; and in it thou shalt be called a seer, a translator, a prophet, an apostle of Jesus Christ, an elder of the church through the will of God the Father, and the grace of your Lord Jesus Christ

AoF 7 We believe in the gift of tongues, prophecy, revelation, visions, healing, interpretation of tongues, and so forth.

There should be an emergency exit:

AoF 8 ...as far as it is translated correctly...

You always should create an emergency exit. This is the keyword to survive.
