@scottwins2 and not one who testified of tis that may have fallen away from the church ever denied, or rebuked their testimony. Even on their death beds did they bear witness to the truth of the BoM.
so let's say someone tries this and doesnt get an answer. at what point should they throw in the towel and move on with their life? one week? one month? a decade? (by the way, this is a legitimate question, which i have not found an answer to.)
...That we, through the grace of God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, have seen the plates... And we also know that they have been translated by the gift and power of God, for his voice hath declared it unto us;...we have seen the engravings which are upon the plates...an angel of God came down from heaven, and he brought and laid before our eyes, that we beheld and saw the plates...And it is marvelous in our eyes. OLIVER COWDERY, DAVID WHITMER, MARTIN HARRIS
Yeah, I went to LDS church, I met so many good people than I thought they are. I'm sorry that I was so rude to everyone in youtube users for hashed on their religion.
The Book of Mormon has a great and wonderful promise to all that read &ponder it with the Holy Ghost will come to know of the truthfulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I know &testify that the Book of Mormon contains the fulness of the ever lasting truths of the Gospel Jesus Christ that have been lost for yrs & yrs but now have been restored through the prophet Joseph Smith. I testify that we can feel a great peace and joy of knowing God's will for his Children through the book of mormon.
I love the Book of Mormon. I do not love it more than the Bible, I love them both equally. I believe that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is Christ's true church on the earth, and that the Temple is really His house on the earth. I believe that the Prophets and Apostles in the church are led by the Spirit and the Word of God. I would not say so if I did not believe.
Ezequiel 37:16 says the Book of Mormon and the Bible go together. The stick of Judah (Bible) and the stick of Joseph (Book of Mormon) "shall become one in thine hand".
It should and must be read under the influence of the Holy Ghost. Truly said by a true disciple of Christ. I have tried and and that's how I know the Book of Mormon is true. Each time I read it, I learn more, have my testimony strengthened and it is confirmed in my heart and mind that the atonement of Jesus Christ is working in my life.
@IRISHBUDDAFILTH Since the Bible prophesies of the Book of Mormon (everlasting gospel (Revelation 14:6) ) it's important to have the Bible and Book of Mormon both.
@IRISHBUDDAFILTH The Pharasees believed in God, the Saduccees believed in God. If fact Christ told them that was not enough. When Moses came down from the mountain, did the people believe him? No, they had corrupted themselves, he had to go up and get a second set of laws called the 10 commandments. What is religion without revelation? The Book of Mormon is the dealing of Christ and his people on the american continent. Together they are two witnesses. Drop a note love to here from you.SM
i'm a LDS too, i believe that we need not to force others to believe it or not, it is their choice and responsibility, it takes a lot of braincells to truly understand things, believers or non-believers, we don't have to beat each other on what we believe or not believe.
we are born naked but full of potential, i suggest that is best to not waste our potentials in arguing in each other, no one is ever right in an argument whether you like it or not.
@karysalle YOU ARE CORRECT! IT IS THROUGH OUR ACTIONS AND WORKS THAT WE PREACH THE TRUE GOSPEL OF THE LORD. WE CANNOT FAIL TO FORGET THE ARTICLE OF FAITH THAT TEACHES THIS TRUTH. MANY WILL BE INTERESTED IN OUR JEWEL (THE GOSPEL) JUST BY A TINY ACT OF LOVE AND COMPASSION.
If you have NEVER read The Book of Mormon, before, READ IT!!! IF you HAVE read The Book of Mormon, READ IT, AGAIN!!! EVERYONE NEEDS TO READ THE BOOK OF MORMON!!! It IS a Testimony that Jesus Christ lives!!!
I absolutely agree. If you want to know the Book of Mormon is true, you need to pray earnestly about it- and ponder what it says. And just ask God if it's true. God will let you know it's true, if you ask in sincerity. And it will bring such light and joy into your life.
If you have NEVER read The Book of Mormon, before, READ it, and then after you read it, pray to know if it is true!!! If you HAVE read it, READ it again, and pray to know if it is true!!! It is true!!! Read it!!! Pray to see if it is true!!! It is true!!! I know that it is true, because I have read it, and prayed to see if it is true, and I felt a happy/peaceful feeling, in my heart!!! That happy/peaceful feeling that I got was letting me that it is true!!!
in order to understand the book of mormon we need to search, ponder and pray before reading it, i will asure u that you will understand the book more than u thought.
Somewhat of an unknown general authority who is sincere and testifying of the reality of the simple request for us to read, ponder, open your heart as you pray so you too can know...it really is simple...all we have to do is give it a try...what have you got to loose? Everything to gain. Having knowledge is a good thing...we learn things from school and online every day...why not figure out if we can get an answer from God who is willing to share the truth with you? Here is wisdom...to know!
I try to read The Book of Mormon 30 min a day . The earlier in the day the better. I have marked 986 paragraphs that directly mention the Savior at least once. Some multiple times .
Hamster- its called FAITH - not evidence- if God wanted it to be proven by evidence it would be blatantly clear- we are here to gain and grow our faith- how are you doing that for yourself?
The book in your hand is evidence itself it is true...for how did the book come to be with over 500 pages of spiritually building meat and potatoes that you can feast upon and receive a fullness? I agree it is faith...I guess my testimony is so strong that faith is now dormant and the perfect knowledge is pure and real...Thanks for sharing your testimony and I pray that others like us will also know...as we "flood the world" with the wonderful reality of the great Book!
I know that the Bible is the word of God. I also know that the Book of Mormon is as much the world of God as is the Bible. Anyone who reads the Book of Mormon will come to know that this is true as much as the Bible is true.
Can some of you good people help me? I have read the BOM and have some friends who are pressuring me to join the church. I like the book and the people at the ward are really nice, but I'm having a hard time reconciling the BOM with evidence. There just doesn't seem to be any archeological support for it's claims. I want to believe, but not if that means betraying my love for archaeology.
@HamsterFueledRocket there is evidence, and there is lack of evidence. If there was overwhelming evidence the church was true, then people would not be fully tested. Which is the purpose we are here. Follow your heart and your mind. The answers are there if you ask God.
Don't feel pressured to join the church. You should only join if you believe it is true. I also love science. I can tell you for myself that I know that the BoM is true. Not because I know everything about archeology and not because other people told me that it was true but because I took all the knowledge I had and all the hopes I had and asked God and he gave me a feeling in my heart that I couldn't deny! (and one day, I am sure science will catch up with God and give proof to it as well)
@HamsterFueledRocket First and foremost faith is not based on "evidence" it is based on a relationships with God who will testify to you through the Holy Spirit.
That being said have you gone to the Neil Maxwell Instituter web page? If not try it. Also read the work of Hugh Nibly a renowned archaeologist .
@HamsterFueledRocket Faith preceeds the miracle. Do not base the truthfulness or your belief on what u have read my brotha on worldly things such as archaeology, kneel down in sincere prayer to ur Heavenly Father an ask him with real intent in the Name of Jesus Christ if The Book of Mormon is true and I promise u in his own time he WILL let u know by the power of the Holy Ghost of its truthfulness, as have I
@HamsterFueledRocket there is a lot of archeological support to the BoM that only a few years ago wasn't known. the Church doesn't spread it openly, though, because we want the spirit to convert people, not temporal evidence.
@HamsterFueledRocket You will receive a witness but only after you have shown that you have Faith . God gives to those that ask but in his own time and not always the way we want. If you have felt a warmness in your heart as you read scriptures in the Bible or BoM then this is already an answer to you. You must be willing to trust your feelings and put your trust in the Lord then eventually you will receive more answers to deeper questions. Please read Alma Chapter 32
there is archaeology fact of the BOM remember reading where the Laminnights layed down there weapons on war and becaome Niphights. archaeologiest found that berral site in the new england. I would encourgage you to pray before you read the BOM and ask god if what you are reading is ture. Just like joesph smith and the rest of us have we praied to know if the BOM is true we all got our awensers yes the BOM is ture
@HamsterFueledRocket Faith-The Apostle Paul taught that "faith is the substance [assurance] of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). Alma made a similar statement: "If ye have faith ye hope for things which are not seen, which are true" (Alma 32:21). Faith is a principle of action and power. Whenever we work toward a worthy goal, we exercise faith. We show our hope for something that we cannot yet see.
@HamsterFueledRocket You said: "Can some of you good people help me? I have read the BOM and have some friends who are pressuring me to join the church. I like the book and the people at the ward are really nice, but... I want to believe, but not if that means betraying my love for archaeology." That was 7 months ago. Did you reconcile your love for archaeology with your love for God? I have a love for Jesus Christ and as a member of the LDS Church, I am curious what you decided.
I believe that the Book of Mormon is true and I feel the spirit that testify to me its truthfulness, I love reading it and also the Bible, it teaches me great things I just love it & I'm happy
Yes I already finished reading the Book of mormon, and I'm reading the Bible.. once I finish reading Bible,I will read again the Book of Mormon.. I love reading it.. it teaches me to great things.
Todos nosotros hemos tenido la oportunidad de leer el libro de mormon, y hemos podido sentir el amor de nuestro padre celestial hacia uno, ahora es nuestro deber y responsabilidad de compartir con otros. Realmente cambia la vida me levanto y leo sus paginas, me ayudan a tomar decisiones importantes y me ayudan en mi conversion
English: All of us have had the opportunity to read the book of mormon, and we could feel the love of our heavenly father to one, now is our duty and responsibility to share with others. It really changed my life I get up and read their pages, helping me make important decisions, helping me with my conversion
I just got done serving a mission for this church in Oklahoma City. What a wonderful impact the Book of Mormon has on the souls of good Christian people! I saw so many peoples' faith in Christ grow and strengthen because of the teachings in the Book of Mormon. Some didn't choose to join the church, but they still received peace, joy and greater knowledge of God through reading out of this sacred volume of Scripture. How wonderful that God still speaks to His children!
I'm reading the Book of Mormon right now and I'm almost done and I just love it! I hope that all of you can know that its true and you can feel the spirit. I know that it's true with all my heart!
Yes, indeed the Book of Mormon is true the stories and messages in it are real. It is a powerful gift from our loving Heavenly father to strengthen us in these latter days just as the Holy Bible strengthen so many of our ancesters. Praise be to God for his mercy endureth forever.
The book of mormon is a true record of Jesus Christ. I promise added light and understanding will come to all those who read it and pray to God about its truthfulness.
I add my testimony as well. The Book of Mormon, is from god. The feelings of love, and and the holy ghost can not come from the hand of man. I have not a single doubt in my soul that we have a living prophet upon the earth. We have the church of Christ among us, the priesthood among us. If anyone would sincerely pray to our loving father. They will know....
I am reading the BoM with my wife every night, and on my way to work and back am listening to it on cd. Reading then listening truly lets you feel the spirit, and helps you understand it better. Nephi was the man. After only reading and listening to 1st and 2nd Nephi I am blown away by the spiritual power and understanding that man had. These books alone have already strengthened my faith and knowledge 3 fold. Glory be to the Lamb of God who's words shall never cease! (2 Nephi 29 6-14)
I add my testimony of the Book of Mormon. It is a book from God and one can ask Him in sincerity if it is true, and will receive a witness from the Holy Ghost that it is true
There are no conflicts. The four standard works are to be read in unison. Together they contain the fulness of the Gospel. God does have a body of flesh and bone. He also has a spirit - just like we and all living creatures do. If you want to learn the truth, you can never pick out just one verse of scripture and say, "This is the truth". You have to gain understanding gradually by reading all scripture and praying about if over a period of time.
There is no conflict. The four standard works are meant to be read in unison. You can't pick out one verse of scripture and say, "This is the only truth". God does have a body of flesh and bone. And he has a spirit - just like we and all living creatures do.
Jesus Christ did not yet have a body through a lot of the BofM not until he went through mortality and then died and was resurrected. That is why. Also the BofM talks about the Holy Ghost a lot
It would help if you could sight the scriptures you are using, but all the same might I offer a solution to your conundrum. God has both a spirit, and a body-joined together to form 1 soul- D&C 88:15. I do not believe anything in the Book of Mormon conflicts with our doctrine. I would like bear to you my testimony that Jesus is the Christ, living, and still with us this day. When the dark night comes, as it will, He will be there for you!
The Book of Mormon has changed my life and made me a better person. I can feel the Savior close as I read it personally and to my children. I love that my 3-year old daughter loves watching these videos. I know it is true.
I know that I feel love and peace when I read the Book of Mormon. I Testify it is a book from god. I also know that the prophets in the Book of Mormon knew of Christ and taught and testified of Christ. This is True.
I too am grateful for the Book of Mormon: for it's confirmation of sacred Biblical truths that Jesus Christ is our Savior, that we have a role to play beyond lip service acceptance of him as our Savior and that he continues to reveal ever important truths!
I to add my testimony of this book. Along with the Bible it is the most complete set of the Gospel we have on the Earth today! Both testify of Christ, and Christ is its foundation. I know with out a doubt in my heart the He is the Christ and He lives and loves each and every one of us!
I also testify that the Book of Mormon is the word of God. It calls you unto Christ and is convincing that he is the Christ. It calls you to repentance and to walk with Christ by the power of his eternal Atonement. It invites you to love God and your neighbour as yourself. I will also work as a conduit for God to speak to your heart and to avoid temptation. It helps you to discren truth from error and builds within you a desire to help everyone you meet. Its a love letter from Christ.
Most Christian churches believe that revelation is no longer necessary because all the affairs of the kingdom have already been arranged, and that the Atonement did everything for them. If I am wrong please correct me.
The Book of Mormon complements and assists the bible, explaining parts that were not discussed, and emphasizing important topics, such as the nature of the godhead, and the divinity of Jesus Christ
The scripture on Moroni is truly what converted me to the church. Ask God if it is true. Is there any other church that asks you to do the same? I don't know of one. Then, once you receive witness, you can never deny it no matter if you become inactive, you return eventually because you know the truth of the book. I testify that it is true and it has changed and blessed my life in ways I cannot describe.
I know this gospel's true and I bear witness of the power and verity of the Book of Mormon. It has changed my life. It has helped me on my path back to my Heavenly Father and has been the means of the most positive transformation I have ever experienced in my life.
As know this is true with as much verity as I know that I live.
Luc Despres
"Remember, your life is like a game of tennis; the better you serve the more you win."
When the missionaries started to teach me the gospel, I got really excited because I could feel in my heart that it was all true. They said; "Don't take our word for it. Ask God in prayer if what we've shared with you is true. Well... I took their challenge and prayed that night. I got my answer with as much surety as could be given to any man.
You raise a good point GRACEtoHOPE. Whatever image we (LDS) use to depict Jesus, is simply a tool to help us interpret that which is most important, Jesus' Divinity and Jesus' Teachings.
I think if we get caught up in what the Savior looked like we miss the mark or purpose. Whether He had a beard, long hair, a long nose, was tall, had such and such color of hair and eyes is not our true focus. We don't come to know that Savior by what "he looks like," but rather by serving Him. "For how knoweth a man the master whom he has never served, and is a stranger unto him, and is far from the thoughts and intents of his heart?" Mosiah 5:13
I have read the Book of Mormon several times and yet each day I read more, it strengthens my testimony of Jesus Christ and His divine role as Redeemer and Savior of mankind. More than any other book, the Book of Mormon has brought me closer to my Father in Heaven.
Well, if one think or feel the Book of Mormon is not true, my advice is to read it again, but in a more humble way pray to our Heavenly Father, so that The Holy Ghost can touch the one who is wondering, and tell the Truth.
It has not to do with the Book of Mormon if someone can´t feel the truth, it has to do with themselves. The Book of Mormon is true, either we believe it or not, just as God exists, either we believe it or not...
wow, what a great answer. Couldn't have said it better. You are correct specially that it has to do with yourself and not the book of you can't feel the truth. A sincere a humble prayer is the key to know and read it all slowly and ponder its writings in your heart. I can promise you Joel, you will receive an answer from Heavenly Father that it is true.
Joel, great question. 2 Nephi 33:10 "...And if ye (you) shall believe in Christ ye will believe in these words, for they are the words of Christ." The Book of Mormon does offer the invitation to ask God of its truthfulness. However, we (LDS) also believe what Joseph Smith said in the 11th Article of Faith: "We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may."
Second question. How do you know that the Bible is true? Please don't think this an attack, because I cannot live without the Bible or Book of Mormon. I hope to make a connection between the two. Have a good one.
There are many places that reference the book of Mormon in the Bible; first Ezekiel 37: verse 16 specifically speaks of the stick of Judah and the stick of Joseph coming together. In those times, a stick was a scroll or a piece of writing and Nephi is of the tribe of Joseph while the majority of the bible we have now is from the mouth of a Jew or someone from the house of Judah.
secondly, when Jesus is Crucified; there is a great darkness in Israel and at the same time there is one in the BoM
The Book of Mormon is the true word of God. So is the Bible. But there are so many different versions of the bible, yet only one version of the Book of Mormon. I have a testimony of the Book of Mormon. I had never read any other book more as a kid than the B.O.M. the blessings that came from it was a stronger testimony in the gospel, i could read and spell above my age lvl and still can, and it is not of this world. There are no errs, no crude words. A book full of more teachings and blessings.
In 1975, I was a searching soul, raised in another church, but searching for a more completeness to Christianity. Through sincere prayer, I was led to investigate the L.D.S. Church. Consequently, I was given a Book of Mormon, prayed about it with a SINCERE heart and received an answer by the power of the Holy Ghost. It has blessed my life ever since, in spite of the difficulties of mortality. This knowledge is available to all who do likewise. The completeness in Christianity is now real.
Thank you Elder Christensen. I feel so sad for those who do not believe. I know that those of us in the church who truly believe are happy and complete. We still face trials but we know of the reward that follows after.
I know that The Book of Mormon is true as I have read it, prayer and asked God if it was true and it has helped me learn more Bout Jesus Christ! I love the Book of Mormon! The promise is true!
I think the LDS do accept Him as Lord and Savior already!
" And he shall be called Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Father of heaven and earth, the Creator of all things from the beginning; and his mother shall be called Mary. "For behold, and also his blood atoneth for the sins of those who have fallen by the transgression of Adam, who have died not knowing the will of God concerning them, or who have ignorantly sinned."
I do believe in the book of Mormon...artile of Faith 8th...We believe the bible to be the word of God as far as it is translated correctly, we also believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God...
i don't believe in any sort of god cause i honestly think its ridiculous but i do enjoy reading the book of mormon for its amazing storys. The storys are very creative and are fun to read.
There is someting wrong if you dont belive in GOD. Because Jesus Christ i who we should follow. I know that the book of mormon is true and i kow that jesus christ is true.
How do you like reading the BOM but not believe in God because it is 'ridiculous?'
You should learn some of the history of Joseph Smith (who translated the BOM) and then truly ponder whether or not he could truly have made all this up.
I know Joseph Smith is a prophet of God and that the Book of Mormon is a Testimony of Jesus Christ just as the Bible is.
If you don't believe in God after reading the Book of Mormon, you've missed the whole point of the book! Maybe you should read it again, only this time with an honest purpose and intent. Do what Moroni says in Moroni 10:3,4-- ponder it in your heart, and ask God, in all sincerity, if it's true.
I testify to you that it is true. But you have to find out for yourself.
I didn't always know it was true. However, I can with full honesty say that I know that the Book of Mormon is indeed true. It is written by Christ through His prophets.
each time i read the book of morman i get something new out of it, a line that i over read or i might see something in a new prespective and many of my questions are answered from that.
The Book of Mormon is true. I read Moroni 10:3-5 twice before I accepted it. The 1st time was not with a sincere heart, the 2nd was. And the 2nd time, I received confirmation from the Holy Ghost that it is true. My life would not be the same without the Book of Mormon.
Yes, I have also read and prayed about The Book of Mormon and I have felt the divinity of it and know with all certainty that it is true, and that the events in it really did occur, and that the doctrines it contains is true. Jesus Christ really did come to the American Continent and taught the people there just as he did in the Old World. I know this is true and anyone who reads The Book of Mormon with a sincere heart seeking to find the truth can also come to know this truth with certainty.
I know with every part of me that the Book of Mormon is true. It took a sincere desire TO KNOW of it's truthfulness, reading it and sincere prayer asking to know. It wasn't until I became teachable with a desire to know, that I received my answer. All who desire an answer will find the truth. Don't take my word for it...you try. Jesus Christ lives. We have modern day prophets, just as the people in times of Moses did. God still loves us and directs us.
What a blessing it is to know about the The Book of Mormon in our life time. I know it is true because I prayed about it. I do love The Book of Mormon.
This talk had a profound effect on my life when I first saw it during General Conference. The Book of Mormons is True! It is the Word of God! The Prophet Joseph Smith did see God the Father and his beloved Son, Jesus Christ. The only, true and living Church of Jesus Christ was restored, to the earth, through him.
There is no other book like the Book of Mormon. It truly is the word of God. My life would have absolutely no meaning to it if I did not have the Book of Mormon. What a wonderful God we have, to provide a way for us, through true and living Prophets, as well as apostles.
@scottwins2 and not one who testified of tis that may have fallen away from the church ever denied, or rebuked their testimony. Even on their death beds did they bear witness to the truth of the BoM.

It is true!!! Read it!!! Pray to see if it is true!!! It is true!!! I know that it is true, because I have read it, and prayed to see if it is true, and I felt a happy/peaceful feeling, in my heart!!! That happy/peaceful feeling that I got was letting me that it is true!!!

Somewhat of an unknown general authority who is sincere and testifying of the reality of the simple request for us to read, ponder, open your heart as you pray so you too can know...it really is simple...all we have to do is give it a try...what have you got to loose? Everything to gain. Having knowledge is a good thing...we learn things from school and online every day...why not figure out if we can get an answer from God who is willing to share the truth with you? Here is wisdom...to know!

The book in your hand is evidence itself it is true...for how did the book come to be with over 500 pages of spiritually building meat and potatoes that you can feast upon and receive a fullness? I agree it is faith...I guess my testimony is so strong that faith is now dormant and the perfect knowledge is pure and real...Thanks for sharing your testimony and I pray that others like us will also know...as we "flood the world" with the wonderful reality of the great Book!

Can some of you good people help me? I have read the BOM and have some friends who are pressuring me to join the church. I like the book and the people at the ward are really nice, but I'm having a hard time reconciling the BOM with evidence. There just doesn't seem to be any archeological support for it's claims. I want to believe, but not if that means betraying my love for archaeology.
HamsterFueledRocket 1 year ago
@HamsterFueledRocket there is evidence, and there is lack of evidence. If there was overwhelming evidence the church was true, then people would not be fully tested. Which is the purpose we are here. Follow your heart and your mind. The answers are there if you ask God.
wmarcus1203 1 year ago
Don't feel pressured to join the church. You should only join if you believe it is true. I also love science. I can tell you for myself that I know that the BoM is true. Not because I know everything about archeology and not because other people told me that it was true but because I took all the knowledge I had and all the hopes I had and asked God and he gave me a feeling in my heart that I couldn't deny! (and one day, I am sure science will catch up with God and give proof to it as well)

@HamsterFueledRocket First and foremost faith is not based on "evidence" it is based on a relationships with God who will testify to you through the Holy Spirit.

@HamsterFueledRocket there is a lot of archeological support to the BoM that only a few years ago wasn't known. the Church doesn't spread it openly, though, because we want the spirit to convert people, not temporal evidence.

@HamsterFueledRocket You will receive a witness but only after you have shown that you have Faith . God gives to those that ask but in his own time and not always the way we want. If you have felt a warmness in your heart as you read scriptures in the Bible or BoM then this is already an answer to you. You must be willing to trust your feelings and put your trust in the Lord then eventually you will receive more answers to deeper questions. Please read Alma Chapter 32

@HamsterFueledRocket Faith-The Apostle Paul taught that "faith is the substance [assurance] of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). Alma made a similar statement: "If ye have faith ye hope for things which are not seen, which are true" (Alma 32:21). Faith is a principle of action and power. Whenever we work toward a worthy goal, we exercise faith. We show our hope for something that we cannot yet see.

How wonderful that God still speaks to His children!

Nephi was the man. After only reading and listening to 1st and 2nd Nephi I am blown away by the spiritual power and understanding that man had. These books alone have already strengthened my faith and knowledge 3 fold. Glory be to the Lamb of God who's words shall never cease! (2 Nephi 29 6-14)

Question: If the BofM is the most correct book, why does it conflict with the other Mormon Gospels?
The BofM says God is a spirit. Do the other Mormon Gospels say that or do they say he has a body of flesh and bone?
hammer7629 2 years ago
There are no conflicts. The four standard works are to be read in unison. Together they contain the fulness of the Gospel. God does have a body of flesh and bone. He also has a spirit - just like we and all living creatures do. If you want to learn the truth, you can never pick out just one verse of scripture and say, "This is the truth". You have to gain understanding gradually by reading all scripture and praying about if over a period of time.

Jesus Christ did not yet have a body through a lot of the BofM not until he went through mortality and then died and was resurrected. That is why. Also the BofM talks about the Holy Ghost a lot

It would help if you could sight the scriptures you are using, but all the same might I offer a solution to your conundrum.

tylermatthewmarz 2 years ago
I also testify that the Book of Mormon is the word of God. It calls you unto Christ and is convincing that he is the Christ. It calls you to repentance and to walk with Christ by the power of his eternal Atonement. It invites you to love God and your neighbour as yourself. I will also work as a conduit for God to speak to your heart and to avoid temptation. It helps you to discren truth from error and builds within you a desire to help everyone you meet. Its a love letter from Christ.
myeyepie 2 years ago
Most Christian churches believe that revelation is no longer necessary because all the affairs of the kingdom have already been arranged, and that the Atonement did everything for them. If I am wrong please correct me.
The Book of Mormon complements and assists the bible, explaining parts that were not discussed, and emphasizing important topics, such as the nature of the godhead, and the divinity of Jesus Christ

The scripture on Moroni is truly what converted me to the church. Ask God if it is true. Is there any other church that asks you to do the same? I don't know of one. Then, once you receive witness, you can never deny it no matter if you become inactive, you return eventually because you know the truth of the book. I testify that it is true and it has changed and blessed my life in ways I cannot describe.

I think if we get caught up in what the Savior looked like we miss the mark or purpose. Whether He had a beard, long hair, a long nose, was tall, had such and such color of hair and eyes is not our true focus. We don't come to know that Savior by what "he looks like," but rather by serving Him. "For how knoweth a man the master whom he has never served, and is a stranger unto him, and is far from the thoughts and intents of his heart?" Mosiah 5:13

Well, if one think or feel the Book of Mormon is not true, my advice is to read it again, but in a more humble way pray to our Heavenly Father, so that The Holy Ghost can touch the one who is wondering, and tell the Truth.
It has not to do with the Book of Mormon if someone can´t feel the truth, it has to do with themselves. The Book of Mormon is true, either we believe it or not, just as God exists, either we believe it or not...
Moonlightdutchess 2 years ago
wow, what a great answer. Couldn't have said it better. You are correct specially that it has to do with yourself and not the book of you can't feel the truth. A sincere a humble prayer is the key to know and read it all slowly and ponder its writings in your heart. I can promise you Joel, you will receive an answer from Heavenly Father that it is true.
pocorro 2 years ago
The Book of Mormon itself, to my knowledge, doesn't specifically say anything bad or negative about being convinced it's not true.
It mostly asserts that if you ask God if it's true, God will answer your prayer and you will know by His power that it is true.
Therefor, if you're convinced the Book of Mormon is not true, it could be argued that the Book of Mormon asserts that that conviction is not of God.
I guess you can decide how bad or negative that is.
jaromadair 2 years ago
Joel, great question. 2 Nephi 33:10 "...And if ye (you) shall believe in Christ ye will believe in these words, for they are the words of Christ." The Book of Mormon does offer the invitation to ask God of its truthfulness. However, we (LDS) also believe what Joseph Smith said in the 11th Article of Faith: "We claim the privilege of worshiping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may."

There are many places that reference the book of Mormon in the Bible; first Ezekiel 37: verse 16 specifically speaks of the stick of Judah and the stick of Joseph coming together. In those times, a stick was a scroll or a piece of writing and Nephi is of the tribe of Joseph while the majority of the bible we have now is from the mouth of a Jew or someone from the house of Judah.
secondly, when Jesus is Crucified; there is a great darkness in Israel and at the same time there is one in the BoM

The Book of Mormon is the true word of God. So is the Bible. But there are so many different versions of the bible, yet only one version of the Book of Mormon. I have a testimony of the Book of Mormon. I had never read any other book more as a kid than the B.O.M. the blessings that came from it was a stronger testimony in the gospel, i could read and spell above my age lvl and still can, and it is not of this world. There are no errs, no crude words. A book full of more teachings and blessings.

In 1975, I was a searching soul, raised in another church, but searching for a more completeness to Christianity. Through sincere prayer, I was led to investigate the L.D.S. Church. Consequently, I was given a Book of Mormon, prayed about it with a SINCERE heart and received an answer by the power of the Holy Ghost. It has blessed my life ever since, in spite of the difficulties of mortality. This knowledge is available to all who do likewise. The completeness in Christianity is now real.

How do you like reading the BOM but not believe in God because it is 'ridiculous?'
You should learn some of the history of Joseph Smith (who translated the BOM) and then truly ponder whether or not he could truly have made all this up.
I know Joseph Smith is a prophet of God and that the Book of Mormon is a Testimony of Jesus Christ just as the Bible is.

If you don't believe in God after reading the Book of Mormon, you've missed the whole point of the book! Maybe you should read it again, only this time with an honest purpose and intent. Do what Moroni says in Moroni 10:3,4-- ponder it in your heart, and ask God, in all sincerity, if it's true.
I testify to you that it is true. But you have to find out for yourself.

This talk had a profound effect on my life when I first saw it during General Conference. The Book of Mormons is True! It is the Word of God! The Prophet Joseph Smith did see God the Father and his beloved Son, Jesus Christ. The only, true and living Church of Jesus Christ was restored, to the earth, through him.

There is no other book like the Book of Mormon. It truly is the word of God. My life would have absolutely no meaning to it if I did not have the Book of Mormon. What a wonderful God we have, to provide a way for us, through true and living Prophets, as well as apostles.
Thank you.
