What think ye of the Book of Mormon?

"What think Ye of the Book of Mormon?"

Here is my answer:

It is Word of God, received and written by the power of God, preserved through history by the power of God, translated and published by the power of God, and no unholy hand or institution will ever be able to stop its words from being read and spoken throughout the earth.

Before any anti flames me, I am fully aware they harbor criticism of specific items in its content. They should keep in mind however, that any intelligent, educated atheist can point out all sorts of faults with The Bible.

It is for that reason that I declare only the power of God through the Holy Ghost can establish the book's truth, as it has for me many, many times.

I am sad to say that many good brothers and sisters of the Church join in with non-believers to find fault with the words of God that brought Joseph Smith to the Lord.

I would point out though ( to be fair ) that there are also many who have read it that claim it to be false. ( Many also used to " Know it to be true " and have now come to " Know it to be false ). This has always " stumped " me as to how one once " Knew " it because the Holy Ghost confirmed it to them and they now " Know it to be false ". Not sure how you get that " absolute confirmation " then get an " absolute contrary confirmation":confused:

It is true that it is possible for some "to walk in the noonday sun, and declare that the sun does not shine."

The Holy Ghost can bare witness to us and we are very impressed by the power of the witness.

If we do not feed this testimony of the truth, our memory of the witness wains.

Then

If another spirit bares witness to a lie we are equally impressed.

This spirit can mimic the Holy Ghost, or a Nature Spirit.

Or it can wrap itself in the philosophy of Man.

Take yer pick.

Their cheep.

Take two if yer so inclined;-)
