Book of Mormon Student Study Guide, (2000), 202

At the beginning of the school year you began a daily study of the Book of Mormon, which testifies of Jesus Christ and of the plan of salvation. Now it is time to evaluate your feelings and testimony of the Book of Mormon. Your testimony should be stronger than it was because you have applied many of the saving principles taught within this book.Your reading of the final chapter of the Book of Mormon should not be the last time you read and study this sacred book. Make the study of this book a lifetime pursuit that will help you “come unto Christ, and be perfected in him” (Moroni 10:32).
