I want to share with you my feelings about this great book. For most of my life I have been able to more fully appreciate the love the Savior has for me by reading the Book of Mormon and the Bible. The Old Testament, New Testament and Book of Mormon is a library of God’s dealings with holy prophets that believed in Him and wrote their testimonies about Him to help others. The Book of Mormon is a record of the ancient people of the Americas that had the gospel of Jesus Christ just as the ancient Israelites that accepted Jehovah in the Old Testament and Jesus in the New Testament. One of my favorite passages is in 3 Nephi chapters 11-19, where the resurrected Lord appears to the people and teaches His gospel. Compare Jesus’ sermon on the mount (in St. Matthew).The Book of Mormon is a book of holy scripture that as you read, you will be able to feel the influence of God’s Holy Spirit testifying of its truthfulness. If you are sensitive to the Holy Spirit, He can tell you the truth of all things through honest and sincere study and prayer.There is a special peace and happiness in my life that comes from studying the life and ministry of Jesus Christ and His prophets. This book is filled with amazing stories that I hope you can benefit from just as I have.Feast upon the words contained in the Book of Mormon and Bible and they will guide you in all things what you should do in life. I have received many answers to prayers after asking God for help and then reading the Book of Mormon immediatly afterwards. The Book of Mormon also contains this wonderful promise to know of its truthfulness. (See Moroni 10, verses 3-5). If you read and pray about this book, in the name of Christ, God will make the truth of the book known to you through His Holy Spirit. You’ve heard the scripture, “Ask and you shall receive, knock and it shall be opened unto you.” It really works. I have tried it and you can too.May your life be filled with the peace and love and joy through Jesus Christ, is my sincere desire for you and your family.Sincerely,Dennis E. Hanks
