Safety for the Soul
Jeffrey R. Holland
As one of a thousand elements of my own testimony of the divinity of the Book of Mormon, I submit this as yet one more evidence of its truthfulness. They were willing to die rather than deny the divine origin and the eternal truthfulness of the Book of Mormon.

Watching with All Perseverance
David A. Bednar
Indeed, the Book of Mormon is the keystone of our religion. The Prophet Joseph Smith taught that abiding by the precepts found in the Book of Mormon would help us “get nearer to God” than any other book (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Smith [2007], 64).

Becoming More Powerful Priesthood Holders
Walter F. González
Once I received a testimony of the Book of Mormon, the natural feeling that followed was a desire to apply the teachings of the book by making covenants. The Book of Mormon has more teachings and examples about this topic, and we are the generations who can benefit from the teachings of this book.

Cleansing the Inner Vessel

In the category of sins, the Book of Mormon places unchastity next to murder. D&C 42:40.) “Humble yourselves before God,” says the Book of Mormon.

The Power of the Word
Ezra Taft Benson
The Prophet Joseph Smith said that “the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book.” (Book of Mormon, Introduction, italics added.) Isn’t that what we want for the members of our wards and stakes? To the great prophet-leader Joshua, He said: “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written

The Book of Mormon and the Doctrine and Covenants
Ezra Taft Benson
Excluding the witnesses to the Book of Mormon, the Doctrine and Covenants is by far the greatest external witness and evidence which we have from the Lord that the Book of Mormon is true. Nephi testifies that the Book of Mormon contains the “words of Christ” and that if people “believe in Christ,” they will believe in the Book of Mormon (2 Ne. 33:10).

Scriptural Witnesses
Russell M. Nelson
Among those questioners are some who choose to cast aspersions at the Book of Mormon.1 Disregard for the Book of Mormon or for any other sacred scripture concerns me deeply. This concept was explained long ago when a prophet wrote that the Book of Mormon was “written for the intent that ye may believe [the Bible]; and if ye believe [the Bible] ye will believe [the Book of Mormon] also.”6 Each book refers to the other.
