Historical Consciousness and the Divine Plan - by Douglas Martin, 2010, former member of the Universal House of Justice
This series of talks — originally presented by Mr. Douglas
Martin in Canada, the United States, and a number of nations in Europe, Asia
and Latin America — has been redeveloped to facilitate both individual
exploration and group study. Drawing on his skills as a speaker and
storyteller, and his training as a historian, Mr. Martin takes us on a journey
that begins with the implications of humanity's failure to grasp the
evolutionary nature of religion. In this context, he discusses the Tablets of
the Divine Plan and our capacity to respond to its requirements, now embodied
in the several Plans that have been called forth by the Universal House of
Justice.
