About this book

The Book of Mormon is a collection of writings by ancient prophets and their record keepers. It is named after Mormon, one of the last of these ancient prophets. The text originally appeared on a series of golden tablets that were translated by Joseph Smith. Smith testified that the translation was accomplished “by the gift and power of God,” as he knew no ancient languages at the time, and that he was instructed by God to provide the rendering of these documents into the English language to restore “Christ's true church in the latter days.” In this, Smith became known as the founder and First Prophet of Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Divided into smaller books and subdivided into chapters and verses, The Book of Mormon notes a number of distinctive doctrinal discussions on subjects such as the fall of Adam and Eve, judgment, salvation, and the organization of the latter day church; however, one more distinguishing event of the book is the appearance of Jesus Christ in the Americas following his resurrection in Jerusalem.

Summary

The Book of Mormon is a translation of golden tablets given to Joseph Smith who wrote of their account of a plan for salvation and what men must do to gain peace in this life and eternal redemption in the life to come. Smith received these golden plates from Mormon's son Moroni who was dead but considered glorified and resurrected on September 21, 1823. Smith said he was instructed by God to provide the rendering of these documents into the English language. This New Bible speaks of Jesus' appearance in America after His resurrection. He spoke to the Indians and taught them about salvation and propitiation and their future worshipping God.Please Note: This book is easy to read in true text, not scanned images that can sometimes be difficult to decipher.
