Transcript:
You may have heard of the Book of Mormon, but you might be surprised what it’s actually about.
On the surface, it’s a 1,000 year account of a great civilization. But at heart, it’s about individuals striving to learn of and follow Jesus Christ.
It begins in Jerusalem around 600 BC when a prophet was warned by God to flee the impending destruction of the city.
He and his family are guided across the ocean to what is now the Americas.
Their lives can inspire you to have faith in Jesus Christ.
In fact, the crowning event of the book is the visit of Jesus Christ to the people in the Americas after His Resurrection in Jerusalem.
Even though it was written over 1600 years ago, the Book of Mormon can help you with the challenges you face today.
Most of all, you can grow closer to our Savior Jesus Christ and feel His love for you.

Merry Christmas everyone!!! Thank you Jesus for setting me free. You are the most high. The SON of God sent here so all could have a chance to accept you into their lives, (salvation) to fulfill prophecy, and much much more. I thank you Jesus on this day that we are celebrating your birth. In your Holy Holy name, Amen.
This book changed my life. Reading it and coming to know of its truthfulness helped set me on a path that made my life immeasurably better. It brings peace and comfort and increases faith in Jesus Christ. I love it.
Amén 👏🏽
Yes I know what the Book of Mormon is I've read it back in the 70s. And I read it whenever I need to have some comfort. I also have the Doctrine and Covenants oh, and the pearl of great price, and a few other pieces of the Gospel of Jesus Christ
How about the Bible??
@@TairyGreen89 what about the Bible? I'm talking about the Book of Mormon which is the second book to the Bible
Correction it is the second testament of Jesus Christ yes just lies the Bible was about his life and testament
As christians our faith is constantly being tested. But no matter what we continue to trust in Jesus. Even though it may be difficult and we don’t understand why God is testing us his purpose is to prove that our faith is real. Since covid I fell on a terrible hardship. I lost my job for declining the vaccine. I declined due to my health conditions. I suffer from lupus, and heart disease. I’m now waitressing but not making nearly enough to get by. I’m a single mom, my husband died suddenly years ago. I’m all alone. My children are autistic and non verbal, I’m overwhelmed. I recently started homeschooling them because they were having so many issues in school including bullying. Please pray for me. I’m struggling to pay rent, struggling to buying groceries, struggling to afford the tools I need to homeschool my sons. I WANT TO GIVE UP! But I TRUST in you JESUS. Even as I struggle providing for my children. I will keep faith in God. Faith over fear. Lord hear my prayers. I don’t understand why I’m going through this hardship for so long but I trust you LORD!
I am absolutely praying for you. I hope too that your church congregation rallies around you and is at your doorstep to help. But if not, come to the nearest Latter-day Saint service and introduce yourself. There will be help there. The ‘pastor’ is called a Bishop - meet him and explain things. We love you, Child. We Latter-day Saints have a children’s hymn that says,
“I am a child of God,
and so my needs are great.
Help me to understand His will,
before it grows too late.
Lead me, guide me, walk beside me,
help me find the way.”
Thank you for sharing your painful story, ChildofGOD. 🤗🙏🏽
You are quite correct the Bible is the first testament of Jesus Christ and the Book of Mormon is the second testament of Jesus Christ
GOD BLESS U
Nonsense! It was written by Joseph Smith in the 1800's.
I love this book. It has brought me more of God's light and love. The Holy Ghost has given me knowledge that the events of this book really happened - thousands of people across a millennium of history in ancient America knew of and accessed the power of Jesus Christ. What a sign from God that His message is for all people of all time, everywhere! And it's a fun read to feel the personalities and strengths and weaknesses of so many in the book - Abinadi's lack of disguising skills in Mosiah 12:1 make me laugh every time.
LOVE The Book of Mormon. It points us to Jesus Christ. No film or films can ever take the place of actually reading, studying its pages.
I love these concise and simple videos about core beliefs. They are very digestible and share-able. Thanks!
By their fruits you will know them… contrast the people who call themselves Christian versus those who call them latter-day Saints and tell me which one is more loving, gentle, helpful & Christ like then you’ll know which one speaks truth
You said nothing about the book
I read as often as I can. ❤
Jesus Christ never said that anyone needed to believe that the Book of Mormon is true to get to the 'top level' of heaven.
He never charged 10% of anyone's income or checked for valid temple recommends at the temple doors.
Salvation is quite simple.
Like the thief on the cross, all anyone needs to do is repent of their sins and put their faith in what Christ has already done for them when he shed his blood on the cross, died and rose again. 💕
A broken and contrite heart God will not despise.
God bless.
❤☺
Did you catch what the narrator said!? He said that the book was written 1600 years ago! That would mean it was written in 424 AD. Something doesn't add up. Especially if they espouse that the beginning of it is around 600 BC.
hi! the person who compiled the book, the prophet Mormon, abridged the plates. you ran read about it for yourself in Mormon chapter 1 in the Book of Mormon ☺︎
@@troyfuehrer5067 thank you for clarifying. It is interesting though that since the actual physical gold tablets claimed to be the book of Mormon were never tested or even studied for the language or supposed language rather that it was supposedly translated from, so how can anyone be sure that it was written in the proposed years that it was written? It would be extremely difficult to come up with any specific or approximate dates given that it is in the King James english and given the anachronisms throughout it would stand to reason that some of the dating is way off or the estimation of when events took place throughout it are all together inaccurate.. It's also odd that Joseph Smith copied translation errors that are word for word from the King James version Bible into the book of Mormon. Also, if the plates that Joseph Smith had in his possession were in fact gold they would weigh a ton and it is hard to believe that any one person could have lugged them around especially given how many plate pages it would have taken to put the whole thing together.
@@dcpaulk27 These are good points to bring up, so thank you! Just to help better understand some of this, the writers of each part of The Book of Mormon had kept their records in an order, noting times of when they had possession of the plates and when they wrote, which helps us to understand when various parts were written. There are also very specific prophesies and teachings within the pages that reflect how long a certain event may be in the future (I.e. the coming of Christ), or how long ago they were. Regarding the material of plates themselves, as far as I understand correctly, they more so had the “appearance” of gold-wherein they were actually made of a combination of metals, but gold being one that allowed them to be more flexible and soft so that inscriptions could be made easier. I’d have to go back and do some research, but I believe that’s what I’ve studied before
@@garrettpete @@garrettpete thank you for replying! Could you give me some of the references specifically in the book of Mormon where the supposed authors note the time period they are in (not including the summary introduction before the start of the chapter)? Also, could you give me some specific references regarding prophecies about Christ in the book of Mormon?
@@dcpaulk27 For time periods, it is all calculated based on the birth of Jesus Christ. For example, 1 Nephi 10 says that Christ will be born in 600 years, so we know that that part of the Book of Mormon happened around 600 BC. There are other parts that say an event happened 400 years after the birth of Christ so we know that happened around 400 AD
Pretty much the whole Book of Mormon is filled with prophecies about Jesus Christ. Mosiah 3 is a great example, so is Mosiah 13-15, and Alma 34. But like I said pretty much every chapter talks about Christ in some way
Love this video
The book of mormon has really helped me draw closer Jesus Christ I loved that book
I'm grateful for the love of God in preparing the Book of Mormon for us! My life is blessed by it! God helps me through it!
This book is true, I know for a fact. It's true, Doctrine.
Actually the book of Mormon was written about 193 years ago. Since its publication it has had and has on going doctrinal changes and story narrative changes.
Sorry that’s wrong. I’ve actually held and looked through one of the first edition copies of the Book of Mormon and compared it with what we have today. Only formatting is different. The doctrine found within the book is unchanged and will never be changed. I would encourage you to actually read the book before you judge it.
@@jessicacarter548 I have and the changes are well documented. Just because you didn't see them doesn't mean they aren't there. People have left your church because of the changes.
It has had no doctrinal changes, just some punctuation and wording changes due to errors made by men
The best book and reading it will help you in life 👍🏆
:)
Amen 🙏❤️❤️💙💙💙

Bible fanfic
Stay away! This book was not written 1600 yrs ago. It was written by a man some nearly 200 yrs ago. Use your discernment if you are thinking about reading it!
David, brother of cheap shot, of bowel blockage with unfortunate accumulation: We discern your churn. Surprised you’re lurking and strolling and trolling on this Latter-day Saint channel. You must be a very busy brother to have time resources enough to defecate here.
bruh it was translated by Joseph Smith nearly 200 years ago, but it was written 1600 years ago.
BRUH 💀it was written 1600 yrs ago, but what makes you believe that?
It was written 200 years ago. I know because a rock in a hat told me so.
@@baura1847 so u would believe in a rock than actual doctrine??
This is false teachings
This is not false teachings
@@corwinmorton3411 fax man
False doctrine
less bro, it's all true
Yes Jesus is the SON of God. Jesus is the Holy Spirit. Jesus IS GOD. Merry Christmas to you 🙏🏼 Also I pray for all the Mormons that you God will show them how you are all they need because of what you did on that cross. Happy Birthday Jesus and I love you.
@balupera I definitely agree the Bible is true not the book of Mormon tho. I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas celebrating when God came to earth in human form so we can have enlternal life and Eve and Adam accepted temptation which started sin. God created us in His image. I hope you are very blessed, and Merry Merry Christmas ☃️🙏🏼
God say in The book of Leviticus chapter 19 verse 1 be holy for your God is holy not Mormon
Mormon was a prophet who compiled the Book of Mormon which teaches holy doctrine about God
