"Angels Announce the Coming of Christ" is a chapter in the book entitled, The "Most Correct Book: Insights from a Book of Mormon Scholar" by John A. Tvedtnes. Originally published in 1999, John gave permission to BMC to place this entire book and many of his other publications in the Book of Mormon Central Archive following Tvedtnes' death earlier this year. We share it this Christmas Eve as part of our way of honoring the connection of the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ.

The final part in a 3-part Miniseries from the Editor's Table of the Improvement Era, this time from the June 1904 issue. This article from President Joseph F. Smith reflects on the death of his friend; early pioneer and prominent politician James Sharp. He discusses the Savior's resurrection in the New Testament, as well as the teachings of the Book of Mormon prophet Alma the Younger on that topic. President Smith's words here show that the doctrine of the resurrection had been on the prophet's mind for many years, and serves as a notable connection for us today with what he would eventually reveal in section 138 of the Doctrine and Covenants.
