Thank You. I am aware of the basic teachings/doctrines of the LDS-and as you say "summed up" in the 13 statements.
What I am looking for is something like my church-Catholic-and many other church groups have-a definitive listing or authorized authoritative work saying what the actual doctrines of the church are.
We have the Catechism of the Catholic Church as source reference guide to our doctrines- I can find nothing similar in the LDS Church with a search capability to clearly see what those doctrines are--so there is much--- grey area.
Different people on here and other LDS sites seem to disagree on what the doctrines of their church are---so I was looking for a definitive guide-so far nothing is available.

The basic beliefs of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are summed up in 13 simple statements penned by Joseph Smith as a response to frequent queries on the teachings and doctrines of the Church. These statements are now known as the Articles of Faith of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
I hope this helps.
