The Book of Mormon by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Book Summary

The Book of Mormon is a volume of holy scripture comparable to the Bible. It is a record of God’s dealings with the ancient inhabitants of the Americas and contains the fulness of the everlasting gospel. The Prophet Joseph Smith translated this record by the gift and power of God and first published it in March of 1830 as the Book of Mormon. It is now published in many languages as a new and additional witness that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God and that all who will come unto him and obey the laws and ordinances of his gospel may be saved. The 2013 edition of the Book of Mormon includes clarifications and adjustments to the introduction, footnotes, and chapter headings; however, these adjustments have not been so extensive as to require members to purchase the new edition to stay current with either the Church curriculum or personal study.

Thankful. This Book has brought peace and I am thankful for the words and truths in the book.

The Play Was Better :(. Usually when it comes to these types of things, the source material is waaay better than the adaptation. In adaptations things are usually removed or reworked to "make" running time. Characters are combined, subplots are dropped, etc. Sadly, that isn't the case with this book; in short, the play was much, much better. I'll admit, maybe it's because I saw the adaptation first, but what's on the page isn't nearly as good as the Broadway show. The show was full of humor, excitement, music, and even an African war lord! All that's missing here! Instead the book stretches out the 5 minute prologue in the show to an excruciating 300+ pages. I'm glad I read it, I just wish they'd focused a bit more on the plight of Elder Price and Cunningham instead of this Joesph Smith fellow. 17th Century melodrama in Missouri isn't exactly an exciting read!

Fake. Is a hoax probably made my the devil himself and the word of GOD is the Bible not this hoax

The Book of Mormon. I really enjoy reading and studying this book! I know that it is God’s word along with the Bible.

This book will change your life.. I have read this book over and over, and I know that it comes from God! Read this book, and your life will change. No joke. I have seen people read its contents, and they have become better people. It goes hand in hand with the Bible, and helps to clear up some of the doctrine found in the Bible. Together with the Book of Mormon and the Bible, you can really know the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Check it out!

Lies. You stand on a hill of lies, Mormon church. Jesus is the only way to heaven, and he is God's son. WARNING FOR NEW READERS: READ TGE BIBLE INSTEAD! THIS BOOK HAS NO TRUTH TO IT!

Strengthen your relationship with God. Regardless of your religious beliefs/view. This book, which was translated by a man called of God, will bring you closer to God and help you feel His infinite love He has for you. I highly encourage everyone to read this additional testament of Jesus Christ and pray about it sincerely.

Heaven Sent. Anytime I need to feel God’s love for me or read clear and simple heart-warming gospel I turn to this book. It preaches of Jesus Christ and is formatted like the Bible but much easier to understand and a quicker read too. This book has brought me closer to God and my Savior more than anything else! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to have a personal connection with their Savior!

I love this book. This book can truly change lives and it has changed mine!

best book in the world. I would be so lost without this book!

Great book of truth!. Absolutely loved this book! I encourage all to read it.

It is true!!!!!. I am an ex-Mormon but I will never deny the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. I am currently a member of the United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing also known as the Shakers.

Merp. I always read this with my family. I love and it helps me fall asleep sometimes. I have a Book of Mormon stories book so when I feel scared, I read this. This is to all the people who wrote those really negative things. I understand you feel that way. Weather you were raised that way or something else. I’m not trying to say that you can’t feel that way because you totally can feel that way. Those of you who say that the Bible came first are right but it is still very accurate and the reason there are less of Jesus’s teachings are in here is because this is written from the nephites and lamanites who were living in the America’s at this time. Jesus grew up in Israel so of course there will be less of his teachings. Bye

Good read. Book of Mormon is the best, helped me find myself and gain a testimony of Jesus Christ.

The word of God. This book is inspired and will change your life. It’s changed mine and I am forever grateful for this wonderful book that has allowed me to come closer to God and Christ.

Book of Scripture. This is a book of scripture which members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe comes from God and was translated by Joesph Smith. It contains the story of ancient inhabitants of the American continent and God’s dealings with them. When I read it I feel the influence of the Holy Spirit and he inspires me to do good, love others, and hope to return with my family to live with God after this life.

This is truly another testament of Jesus Christ. This book is a true account of proceedings in the old world, just like the bible. The words on those pages were written by the true prophets of god in the Americas. The Book of Mormon has greatly strengthened my testimony of the gospel and I hope that it will do the same for yours.

Why?. Boo

Just bad. Not good at all. Worst fiction I have read in a while.

This book is proven false. This is a false book, part of an elaborate hoax. Come to reddit r/exmormon to find out more.

Best book ever. I have read this book over and over and always feels uplifted and like I want to be a better person because of it.

This is the best book EVER. You should read this book I like christen books and found this one you can tell its true

A work of fiction. Visit CESletter.org.

i love the church. best book ever.

Helped Me Out. Yes Yes I Love This Book!

11/10 would recommend.. Gonna read it again! Love this!

Truly Testifies of Jesus Christ. I love this book, it is my favorite book. It testifies of Jesus Christ, His divinity, doctrine and Atonement. I feel myself drawing closer to God by reading and studying this book as the Holy Ghost testifies to me of its truthfulness and teaches me about God, the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ. When I read and study this book, I feel myself being inspired and drawn to become a better person and to be what the Lord would want me to be.

Love it!!. I am reading this book nearly every day, it does not have bottom. Every time the Book of Mormon surprises me with a new insight and inspiration from every read! Pretty good for a historical work.

Not great. Honestly, I’ve read much better fan fiction than this.

Legitimate. I am a historian and have researched this book and the legitimacy of the locations and timeline. They all are real places. The “narrow neck of land” mentioned early on in the book is the Central America area i.e. Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. The great mounds in Ohio and other states are settlements of the people of Limhi as mentioned in the books of alma and ether. I have no questions about the legitimacy of the book.

WOW. If you want to know who Jesus Christ is then READ THIS BOOK!!! It has super cool stories about trials and faith and definitely strengthened my relationship with God when I was going through trials of my own :) PLEASE READ

Good study for all peoples. Even if not a member of the LDS Church (or, any faith), this book is worthy reading for any student of religion. I am not a member but have studied diverse works, ranging from the Bible, to the Book of Mormon (BoM), to the Quran, the Popol Vuh, Hagakure, Analects, Book of Five Rings, and ancient Hebrew Mishnah, etc. Many criticize the BoM based upon their own beliefs, including Atheism. Some believe it less true than any other, or believe that it is simply a "con game", arguing "historical inaccuracies" and such. But it truly has no more inaccuracy than any of the others! And, the truth is, that many such objections have been refuted by findings AFTER the BoM was first published. (By a man who was illiterate until later in life, after its translation/publication from the original plates of gold) For a good example of such refutations? The entire concept that anything would be written on brass or gold plates was considered laughable in the 1830s. Yet, much later, archaeologists discovered other documents written on metal plates, in order for their information to withstand the weathering of time and the elements. Some of which, were found with the Dead Sea Scrolls. People also label it as forgery. There are parts of Isaiah, intentionally quoted in the BoM, just as Isaiah quotes the Book of Enoch. And such quotations happen elsewhere! The Four Gospels quote Old Testament scripture, for another example. But, most of the BoM is original, and worthy of reading. This is NOT the kind of material which an uneducated (and illiterate) boy could just make up on his own. Read it and see, truly! It is as inspired as any other religious text, at the very least! There are other things too, not discovered until the mid-to-late 20th Century, such as Chiasmus. A Hebrew writing method, creating a specific, poetic pattern in how a given issue is written. Chiasmus is found in both the Bible and the BoM. (Please tell me how a young boy made such an amazing discovery on his own, and replicated it) Most who criticize this and other sacred texts do so based on their ignorance. They may be doing so, secondhand, using only the poor information given to them by their pastors or from such intentionally false sources as "The Godmakers", which were created by bitter EX-members of the Mormon faith. Their motives must be questioned. Either they didn't understand the actual doctrine, or they rejected it based upon incomplete comprehension... Or, they more malignly want to hit back at a faith from which they were excommunicated or otherwise unhappily departed from. Because, the Mormon faith requires living under a set of rules which many people are unable or unwilling to follow. Not smoking or drinking. (I smoke, and occasionally imbibe) Not having sex outside of marriage. An organizational method which only gives Men the Priesthood... Which, some interpret as misogyny. (The Mormons actually ELEVATE Women, if you want to know the truth, even if they do not titularly hold some offices, but do hold others) Don't be ignorant! There is no threat to your own beliefs, unless you do not truly have enough faith in your beliefs. If anything, my beliefs have been better clarified by studying the beliefs of many peoples. And, if your bent is to tear any one belief in Christ down (or, any other faith) then it must be questioned how much you believe Christ, and how much YOU seek to emulate Christ. For, to me, emulating Christ (in action, and words) is how one defines oneself as "Christian"... And yet, there are so many so-called Christians who have not read their Bible all the way through. Who, spend the majority of their time condemning others instead of loving them. If they want an enemy to fight against, then they should combine their energies with others against those who want to tear all of Christianity (or, of faith in God, in general) down. Against those, who falsely profess that the First Amendment exists only to provide "Freedom FROM Religion." Our Freedom OF Religion must be maintained. Both, by our government, and by all of our Citizens. Do not waste your time, pursuing the hatred of a good and just people such as the Mormons. Remember: after Christ's return, he told the Disciples: "Forbid them not, for those who are not against us are with us."

Eh, it’s pretty boring. I tried to get into it, but the pacing is really slow

Another testament of Jesus Christ!. I know that this book is truly another testament of Jesus Christ! Through this book I have gained a greater knowledge and a stronger testimony of my Savior. I invite you to read and pray about this book!

Close One. I thought is said, “Book of Moron” and thought it was perfect for me.😂 But it’s an amazing book about Jesus! 🙂😊

Powerful and true stories. Very powerful true stories that brings the reader closer to Jesus Christ. If you love reading the Bible and studying how His teachings can change you for a better person, this is another testament based on history of the Native Americans and will bring you closer to Christ.

Get to really know Christ. If you consider yourself a Christian, or are curious about Jesus Christ and wonder if He is real, READ THIS BOOK. You will learn His gospel and feel his love for you.

I love reading. I love the Book of Mormon and I know it’s true. I have a 3 paper copies and 1 1830s edition. This book truly contains the fullness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. If you want to learn if it is true, read it then ask God with “sincere hearts, with real intent, having faith in Christ,” then you will know for yourselves. I have a testimony that this book is sacred and true. I find true peace and comfort reading this book

Changed my entire life. I believed in Jesus Christ, but after sincerely reading from the Book of Mormon I came to understand Him and gain my own testimony of His love, His reality, and His Atoning Sacrifice that He made for each of us. The Book of Mormon is basically a journal of ancient prophets and apostles and people who lived in the ancient americas who share their experiences about how they come to know God and His Son Jesus Christ. It’s free and I swear it will help you with what ever challenges you have. Give it a try!

The Bible is the truth, and nothing but the truth.. The contradictions between the Book of Mormon and the Bible constitute a most serious obstacle to accepting the Book of Mormon as Latter-day-scripture that is supplemental to the Bible. The Bible came first, not the Book of Mormon. And whereas the Bible is organically linked to the earthly ministry of Jesus Christ by extensive surviving manuscript evidence going back as far as A.D. 125-30, the Book of Mormon is wholly lacking in any such evidences of ancient origin. It is not reasonable, therefore, to make the Bible the standard for judging the Book of Mormon, and not the other way around? If we accept the Bible as our “measuring stick” for spiritual truth, the Book of Mormon must be rejected.

Word of god. This book is truly amazing and changed my life. I will not try and convince anyone of its truth but I invite you to read and ponder these words and then pray intently about it. The Holy Spirit will testify to YOU if it is true or not

Don’t fall for it. Not a good book at all.

Amazing book. Most amazing book out there talks about Jesus Christ in the American people at the beginning of time it shows the kindness in the way of life that it used to be and shows that it wasn’t easy all the time but it still relying on Jesus Christ and everything worked out to be the best totally recommend this book better than any book I’ve ever read

Fake. Fake prophet,don’t believe anything you see in this book

Fake. The Book of Mormon is fake.

Love the book. I LOVE this book you should read it

It is true. Only God can prove it is true. Pray and ask Him.

Totally Inspired. THIS BOOK IS THE GREATIST GIFT ON THE FACE OF THIS EARTH. Inspired is the only word for it. If you like revelation from Holy places you will love this book of Holy scripture. Life changing.

Light. At first I didn’t get it - it seemed irrelevant to me. But then one day I picked it up searching for messages to me from God, and I noticed the promises from God, and the things God did in the lives of the people I was reading about. So I decided to test it out and read every day. And pray. And I can say now after many years, this book brings light into my life. It has helped me to get to know Jesus Christ to a deeper level. It also makes the Bible (both Old and New Testament) make a lot more sense.

Quite absurd.. A long boring story about Jews in ancient America. Lots of it copied from the bible. Racist principles, black skin is a curse from God when people are wicked.
