A Book with a Promise

"I told the brethren that the Book of Moron was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding my its precepts than any other book." -Joseph Smith

 

The Book of Mormon is the word of God and contains the fullness of his gospel! I love this book!!! It has brought more happiness and answers than any other book! Just like Joseph said it is the most correct book on the face of the Earth! It is a book with a promise, if you read it and pray about it you will receive an answer. The other day we were in a lesson and one of the young boys asked us how we would know if we received an answer after we prayed. We spent a little bit of time talking about the Holy Ghost and how it only speaks truth to us through our thoughts and our feelings! After, I spent a little bit of time thinking about how I came to knew the Book of Mormon was Gods word just like the Bible. I received a confirmation as I have studied and read it and prayed to know if it is true! Through the Book of Mormon we receive extra power and strength to overcome in our daily trials. I love that is it just that simple. Read the Book of Mormon and apply its teachings into your life and you will have strength! Plus, it is a great story! I love reading about how the sons of Mosiah and Alma go to foreign land to preach the gospel, or how Lehi takes his family into the wilderness before Jerusalem is destroyed! The Book of Mormon teaches us about family life and how we can strength our families! It holds the secrets to a happy life as it is read and pondered and learned from. I love this book! If the whole world would honestly seek and ask it would change the world for the better! I know it is the word of God and that it works hand and hand with the Bible to teach us. Together they are powerful and holds great revelation and understanding!! I love the Book of Mormon! If you haven't read it I would invite you to read it and pray about it! You will receive an answer! If you have read it I would invite you to read it again and recommit yourself to living by its precepts!!

"Those who gain this divine witness from the Holy Spirit will come to know by the same power that Jesus Christ is the Savior of the world, that Joseph Smith is his revelator and prophet in these last days, and that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is the Lords kingdom once again established on the earth, preparatory to the second coming of the Messiah." 

Introduction to the Book of Mormon

 

I would like to add my witness that I know the Book of Mormon is true and that it is the world of God on the Earth! I know that Jesus Christ lives and loves us! I know that he answers prayers! I know that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is Gods complete church on Earth today!
