The book of Revelation is written largely in symbols.

Revelations are conveyed in a variety of ways, including, for example, dreams, visions, conversations with heavenly messengers, and inspiration. Some revelations are received immediately and intensely; some are recognized gradually and subtly.

If all things were made through Him, clearly so must the splendid revelations have been which were made to the fathers and prophets, and became to them the symbols of the sacred mysteries of religion.

The knowledge and spiritual conviction we receive from the Holy Ghost are the result of revelation.

Our purpose is simply to ask how theological principles can be shown to have usable secular analogues that throw light upon the nature of language.

The blessings of the priesthood transcend our ability to comprehend.

If you take myth and folklore, and these things that speak in symbols, they can be interpreted in so many ways that although the actual image is clear enough, the interpretation is infinitely blurred, a sort of enormous rainbow of every possible colour you could imagine.

The soul... may have many symbols with which it reaches toward God.

The revealed Word awakened me, but it was the preached Word that saved me, and I must ever attach peculiar value to the hearing of the truth, for by it I received the joy and peace in which my soul delights.
