With gratitude for all the pages of holy scripture, we read the plain and precious truths about the Plan of Salvation and the Atonement of our Savior. In Plain and Precious Things, Elder Maxwell teaches and instills gratitude for the gospel knowledge available in this dispensation. The scriptures - the Holy Bible, the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants and the Pearl of Great Price - together all elaborate, reinforce and clarify God's purposes for mankind, at the center or which is our Savior, His atonement, and His plain, precious and redemptive gospel.
