Dealings

The term "dealings" appears OT (1) NT (1) BM (3) DC (1) JE (100s)

The OT refers to "evil dealings."

The NT refers to Jews having "no dealings" with the Samaritans.

The BM refers to the "dealings of that God" and the "dealings of the Lord."

Jonathan Edwards, like the Book of Mormon, used "dealings" to describe God's work:

wonderful dealings of God

they are said to know by the church, i.e. by the dealings of God with the church

Appearing in those dealings of God

I thank you for your friendly and instructive observations on God's dealings with me and my family

God calls upon them to argue and controvert the case with him, to bring forth their objections, and challenges them to show any fault in his dealings towards them.

I have now particularly considered the account which Moses gives us in the beginning of the Bible, of our first parents, and God's dealings with them

The reasonableness of God in his dealings with men consists in these three things

Under which dispensation, the righteousness of God's dealings with mankind would be more fully manifested

And God's dealings with his church are observably very parallel with his dealings with particular souls. 

I then gave them an historical account of God's dealings with his ancient professing people, the Jews: some of the rites and ceremonies they were obliged to observe

10 We believe that all religious societies have a right to deal with their members for disorderly conduct, according to the rules and regulations of such societies; provided that such dealings be for fellowship and good standing; but we do not believe that any religious society has authority to try men on the right of property or life, to take from them this world’s goods, or to put them in jeopardy of either life or limb, or to inflict any physical punishment upon them. They can only excommunicate them from their society, and withdraw from them their fellowship. (Doctrine and Covenants 134:10)
