Excerpt

The Book of Mormon is a volume of holy scripture comparable to the Bible. It is a record of God’s dealings with ancient inhabitants of the Americas and contains the fulness of the everlasting gospel. The record gives an account of two great civilizations and the personal ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ among the Nephites.
