I see several conversations from some individuals claiming that the Book of Mormon is “fake, false, & fictitious”. Here, I add my testimony of the veracity of the book: It is true. In addition to reading, pondering & praying about it, I have studied evidentiary texts. /1

"Mormons aren't Christian, they worship a different Jesus." Let's check. Our Jesus was born of Mary in Bethlehem. He healed the sick, raised the dead, and forgave sins. He bled in Gethsemane and died on the cross at Calvary. He rose the third day with a glorified, resurrected body. He is the Son of God and the only way to the Father. That's the Jesus of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Which part is different? The church's name is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Disagreeing about the creeds doesn't make it a different Jesus.

What a beautiful verse - especially describing those that share the gospel of Jesus. This verse is repeated several times throughout the scriptures. #TheBookofMormon #FollowHim #LDX

"If there were actual ancient manuscripts for the Book of Mormon..." Okay. Name one book of the Bible with its original manuscript. There are zero. Not one original of any book of the Bible survives. The oldest piece of the New Testament we have (P52) is a scrap of John about the size of a credit card, copied decades after John wrote. Moses' tablets? Nobody has those either. The Book of Mormon plates were seen by 11 men who put their names to it, and the Eight said they "did handle" the leaves "with our hands." None of them ever recanted, even the ones who left the Church. So by your standard, the Bible fails first. Want to pick a different standard?
This matter could easily be laid to rest, if there were ACTUAL ANCIENT MANUSCRIPTS FOR THE BOOK OF MORMON. But there's not. So they try harder to explain the unexplainable (other than Joseph Smith authored it.)

Replying to @Victor_Yates
I agree that Jesus Christ alone is our Savior. But believing in the Book of Mormon doesn't mean we've abandoned Christ or the Bible. Where does the Bible teach that God would never reveal additional scripture? 2 Timothy 3:16 says all scripture is inspired by God. It doesn't say God has finished speaking. John 21:25 even tells us that many things Jesus did weren't written down. The Book of Mormon doesn't replace the Bible. It testifies of Jesus Christ. Mosiah 3:17 teaches that salvation comes only through the name of Christ. How is that a rejection of Christianity? And think about this. The earliest Christians didn't have a completed New Testament. Were they somehow not Christians? Of course they were. Their faith was centered on Jesus Christ, just as ours is. You say Christ alone is enough. I agree. But accepting additional revelation doesn't mean Christ isn't enough. The Bible itself is a collection of revelations given at different times through different prophets. If accepting additional scripture means someone isn't Christian, then were the people who accepted Paul's letters rejecting Christ because they already had the scriptures? The question isn't whether God can give additional scripture. The question is whether the Book of Mormon actually comes from Him. I respect your right to disagree with our beliefs, but you can't establish that we're not Christians simply by insisting the Bible is the last word when the Bible itself never makes that claim. We worship Jesus Christ as the Son of God, the resurrected Lord, and the only source of salvation. That's not a rejection of Christianity. That's faith in Christ.

The Book of Mormon takes place in the ancient Americas and, like the Bible, was written by Jesus Christ's followers. It teaches His gospel and testifies of Him. As you live the teachings found in the Book of Mormon, you can find peace and truth. churchofjesuschrist.org/come…

The events in the Book of Mormon actually happened. I believe it. It is indeed another Testament of Jesus Christ comparable to, and a companion of, The Holy Bible. It witnesses of Christ’s love for all. If you want to learn more: churchofjesuschrist.org

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints affirms that Jesus Christ came forth out of the grave and lives today as a resurrected being. Clear evidence of Jesus Christ’s literal Resurrection—His physical appearance to His disciples and others after His crucifixion—can be found throughout the New Testament: •At the site of the empty tomb, Jesus appeared to Mary Magdalene, who was the first person to witness the resurrected Lord (see John 20:11–18). •Cleopas and another disciple walked with the resurrected Christ on the road to Emmaus and later dined with Him (see Luke 24:13–35). •Christ appeared to 10 of the Apostles and said, “Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have” (Luke 24:39). The Apostles gave Jesus “a piece of a broiled fish, and some honeycomb. And he took it, and did eat before them” (Luke 24:42–43). •The Apostle Thomas felt the wounds in Jesus’ hands, feet, and side: “Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing” (John 20:27). •More than 500 people simultaneously saw the risen Lord in Galilee (see 1 Corinthians 15:6). •Paul stated he personally saw the resurrected Lord (see 1 Corinthians 15:8) and taught about the living Christ: “But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept” (1 Corinthians 15:20). The Apostle Paul taught, “For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive” (1 Corinthians 15:22). Because of Christ’s Atonement and Resurrection, all who have ever lived on this earth will also be resurrected to live forever as resurrected beings. The universal resurrection is certain, and it is literal. The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is truly the most glorious event in history.

Many times, miracles are manifest through family, friends, and even strangers with whom we may come in contact. You may never know who, how or why, but they will happen. I have personally witnessed these type of miracles in my life. #TheBookofMormon #FollowHim #LDX
