THE TRUTH IS LIGHT

The Truth is Light is the title of my new three-volume set of books giving glory to God. Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” (John 14:6) And “I am the light of the world…” (John 8:12) To the Jews he profoundly said, “Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

“If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.” (John 8:32, 36) Rejecting these promises, they crucified Him. Thirty-six years later, Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans. The Jews were scattered across the globe. Ironically, this helped bring about the Lord’s promise to Father Abraham that his offspring would bless all nations. (Gen. 22:18) The Lord in our day declared, “And truth is knowledge of things as they are, and as they were, and as they are to come.” (D&C 93:24) I know He is the TRUTH and the LIGHT. As a praying physicist—in the search for TRUTH and LIGHT–I have written many blog articles. We have selected 258 of those and created a three-volume set of books to share what I have found to be true during my 88 years on this planet. I feel greatly blessed by the Lord. Apropos, the title of the three-volume set is “The TRUTH is LIGHT,” which is the Christ.

Discount Prices for New Books

Our son-in-law, Kevn Lambson, compiled the compilation, formatting, and artwork for all three volumes. We made the table of contents and the index to cover all three volumes, and for convenience, they are the same for all three. It makes them as if they were one book. My publisher, Boyd Tuttle is offering them for $60.00 for a 3-volume set.  BookofMormonEvidence.org sells the three-volume set for $50.  Both sites have a very nice and descriptive write-up of the books.  At Amazon, they are sold separately. They are $25 each—making it $75 for the set.  However, they are sold separately.

And, Truth is knowledge of things as they are, as they were, and as they are to come. (D&C 93:24)

The cover on the first volume denotes truth is knowledge of, “Things as they are.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The cover for the second volume denotes truth is knowledge of, “things as they were.”

The cover of the third volume denotes truth is knowledge of, “Things as they are to come.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A summary of the Contents of the Three-volume Set is as follows:

The Book “The Light After Death”

I recently learned of an amazing book describing—as it were—the bringing back of a person from the dead like the Lord did for Lazarus. It happened in Orem, Utah. Vinney Tolman died on the 18th of January 2003. While dead and when his spirit went across the veil, his great-great-grandfather taught him ten celestial principles:

  • 1. Be authentic.
  • 2. Understand the purpose of life.
  • 3. Love everyone.
  • 4. Listen to your inner voice. (Moroni 7:29-31)
  • 5. Use technology responsibly.
  • 6. Release prejudice.
  • 7. Exercise the power of creation.
  • 8. Avoid negative influences.
  • 9. Understand the purpose of evil.
  • 10. Know that we are all one.

Many believe that life is a test. Vinney learned “Life is not a test!” Our intelligence wants to learn following the “Son of Righteousness.” (D&C 130:19).

My Truth Journey

Our grand opportunity in life is to learn the TRUTHs of God. My three-volume set is my journey in doing so. The bottom line for me is to be Christ-centered. I have learned that He is the Master Physicist and the master of everything good. The Lord has blessed me to know some wonderful truths, which I share in part in these 258 blog articles. It is my hope to share this three-volume set to help as many as I can to come to know the author of all truth. To know the Father and the Son. They bring you to Eternal Life—the greatest of all the gifts of God. (John 17:3; D&C 14:7) Let us learn together the TRUTHs of ETERNAL LIFE.

The Infinite Atonement and Podcast

Perhaps my most important contribution to these selected blog articles is the understanding the Lord has given me about the infinite atonement. This is the most important event in all of world history, as well as the best-documented miracle.

I did a podcast with Rod Meldrum around Section 88 of the Doctrine and Covenants explaining with a balance how mercy and justice are perfectly satisfied. You can see it on YouTube. The infinite atonement is perfect and brought perfection to Heavenly Father’s Plan of Happiness.

The Lord’s Spirit whispered to me the seven steps of His infinite atonement. These steps took Him from the deepest of incomprehensible suffering to the heights of the greatest ecstasy and incomprehensible joy. Seven is the number of perfection or completeness in the Lord’s arithmetic. That fullness of joy is offered to all who receive Him and the fullness of His gospel. They truly come unto Him with broken hearts and contrite spirits. They repent of all their sins, exercise faith in our Beloved Messiah, and receive His mercy and grace.

His infinite atonement totally overcame the effects of the fall of Adam and Eve—both the spiritual and physical deaths brought about by the fall. As the Book of Mormon clearly shares, the infinite atonement includes His glorious resurrection. And because of His resurrection, all will be resurrected and brought back into the presence of God. Then the Book of Mormon teaches so beautifully the following:

  • And the Messiah cometh in the fulness of time, that he may redeem the children of men from the fall. And because they are redeemed from the fall they have become free forever, knowing good from evil; to act for themselves and not to be acted upon, save it be by the punishment of the law at the great and last day, according to the commandments which God hath given.
  • Wherefore, men are free according to the flesh; and all things are given them which are expedient unto man. And they are free to choose liberty and eternal life, through the great Mediator of all men, or to choose captivity and death, according to the captivity and power of the devil; for he seeketh that all men might be miserable like unto himself. (2 Nephi 2:26-27)

The Savior’s Three Days in Paradise are a Major Part of Infinite Atonement

Essentially all Christians and most members of my church miss the great importance of Christ’s three-day visit to paradise and its monumental importance as part of the infinite atonement.

Blog Articles Giving More Detail about the Infinite Atonement

Here are the blog articles I have written about the infinite atonement. Again, this is the most important event in all of world history. The first blog article is not in the three-volume set, as it was written after the printing. It is in response to President Nelson’s request in his talk in the October 2024 General Conference. He asked us to learn all we can about the atonement. The General Conference is a semi-annual event for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The rest of these blog articles are in the three-volume set.

All are Greatly Blessed because of the Infinite Atonement

All of Father’s children are greatly blessed by the infinite atonement, as is the earth on which we live. After the cleansing of the Earth by its baptism with Noah’s flood, it will be cleansed by fire. The infinite atonement makes that cleansing of the Earth possible. Then it moves the Earth into a “new heaven and a new earth” in the Earth’s glorious millennial epoch. Then, amazingly, the infinite atonement moves the Earth again into another “new heaven and new earth” at the end of the millennium. That is when the Savior presents His Kingdom to the Father and into the celestial realms of glory. Again, that celestial process is powered by the Savior’s infinite atonement. We cannot say enough in praise, honor, and in deepest gratitude for all He has done, is doing, and will do to bring us back to the Father.

The TRUTHs and LIGHT of God are beyond our comprehension, but what we can come to understand is glorious. We cannot imagine a better plan. THANK YOU, LORD, for Your infinite love in providing this Perfect Plan of Happiness—perfected by our Savior’s perfect and infinite atonement. In honor of God, I share the TRUTHs and LIGHT He has taught me.

Truth Is Light

Christ said, ”I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”

Each of us has a unique mission that is revealed to our hearts and minds, as we follow the light of Christ.  The truths of God will be opened in personal revelation, and in addition those who share and those who receive the truths of God “are edified and rejoice together.” (D&C 50:22).

That which is of God is light; and he that receiveth light, and continueth in God, receiveth more light and that light growth brighter and brighter until the perfect day. (D&C 50:24)

We also grow in gratitude as we contemplate the infinite goodness of the giver of that LIGHT.

Truth Is Light 

(John 8:12)  “TRUTH IS LIGHT” is engraved in the keystone of the arch at the entry of our home. When we were building our solar home (without a furnace) in ’92-’93, our brick mason asked if I would like the granite keystone from from the Salt Lake Temple.  He had been involved with some refurbishing of the temple and had some extra pieces. I humorously responded, “Is this a midnight acquisition?” Finding that it was a legit offer, we accepted this precious gift. As you can imagine, both the scripture and the stone are special to us and symbolize our focus on God’s TRUTHS. (D&C 84:45)

Truth Forsakes the Evil one

The opposite is also true; following the spirit of darkness leads to heaviness of heart, fear, envy, hate, lust, and an ungrateful heart.  While “Light and truth forsake the evil one.” (D&C 93:37)
