Terryl L. Givens spoke at the Tracing Ancient Threads in the Book of Moses Conference on Saturday, September 19, 2020 about “The Book of Moses as a Pre-Augustinian Text: A New Look at the Pelagian Crisis.” The principal contest over the future of Christianity occurs in the late 4th century, when Augustine’s re-interpretation of the divine and the human anthropology triumph, fundamentally damaging forever Christian soteriology. The Book of Moses, the Latter-day Saint tradition’s most neglected scripture, effectively restores the Great Plan of Happiness to its pre-Augustinian character.
