The Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ

The Book of Mormon is a volume of scripture comparable to the Bible. It is a record of God's dealings with the ancient inhabitants of the Americas and contains, as does the Bible, the fullness of the everlasting gospel.
The book was written by many ancient prophets by the spirit of prophecy and revelation. Their words, written on gold plates, were quoted and abridged by a... (read more)

“This book will help you know the Savior, Jesus Christ. You will feel His Spirit most powerfully as you read it. It will change your life! This is a book written to us over two thousand years ago. The stories are fascinating, and the lessons taught are timeless. This is the most important book I can recommend anyone read!”

“like all religious texts this carries with it many truths and helpful hints on how to live life.This is the best that i have read.The reason for that is that I have yet to hear of a war threatened or started by mormons. The evidence against it being authentic is overwhelming.I find it difficult to understand how reasonably intelligent people believe anything so lame.”

    “What is your favorite scripture, and why has it helped you in your life? I have a few, but the one closest to my heart is in the Book of Mormon, Helaman 5:12 "And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall." I still remember in high school when I felt like everything was coming apart, I didn't feel like I could trust my friends anymore, and I felt so alone - then I read this verse, and it spoke to me that I had been placing my foundation on my friends, on things that would always fail, because they were just as imperfect as I am. This lead to my love of my second favorite scripture, in the Old Testament, Proverb 3:5-6, "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy path." When I do trust and lean on Him, He truly does lead.”
