GUIDE TO THE SCRIPTURES
Book of Remembrance
See also Book of Life; Genealogy

A book begun by Adam in which were recorded the works of his descendants; also any similar records kept by prophets and faithful members since that time. Adam and his children kept a book of remembrance, in which they wrote by the spirit of inspiration, and a book of the generations, which contained a genealogy (Moses 6: 5, 8). Such records may well have a part in determining our final judgment.

A book of remembrance was written, Mal. 3: 16-18 (3 Ne. 24: 13-16). All they who are not found written in the book of remembrance shall find no inheritance in that day, D&C 85: 9. The dead were judged by the books that contained the record of their works, D&C 128: 7. Let us present a book containing the records of our dead, D&C 128: 24. A book of remembrance was kept, Moses 6: 5-8. We have a book of remembrance, Moses 6: 46. Abraham endeavored to write a record for his posterity, Abr. 1: 31.
