A Voice of Warning Or, an introduction to the faith and doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints

"A Voice of Warning" by Parley P. Pratt is a guide into the beliefs of the Latter-day Saints. It seeks to clarify misunderstood ideas about their religion by highlighting the role of prophecy as something important. The book opens by talking about why the author felt he needed to write it, especially because of false information that was being spread about the Latter-day Saints. Pratt goes on to say how important it is to truly understand prophecies, reading them in a straightforward way to prevent errors. Giving examples from the Bible, he stresses that messages from God are still happening today. He also mentions that believers have had a hard time through history but that prophecies give hope.
