  1. 2 Nephi 1:115 (RAV) “Adam fell, that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy."

    Excuse you. EVE made that choice. Adam is a follower.

    "Eve (and Adam ig...) fell that humankind might be; and humankind is, that they might have joy."

  2. Interestingly enough, after Joseph was tried for using his seer stone while digging for treasure and being found a fraud, he allegedly found the gold plates with his seer stone, and translated then with his seer stone. The text of the Book of Mormon includes multiple references to this concept of slippery treasures. It seems Joseph could have easily written in this as validation to his digging for treasure.

  6. Book of Mormon Anachronisms – Slippery Treasures and Treasure Digging Concepts

    The Smith family and other treasure seekers believed that enchantments on buried treasure had the power to move the location of the treasure under the earth so that those seeking the hidden valuables could not acquire them. These were called slippery treasures.

  11. #PersonalStudy #BookOfMormon churchofjesuschrist.org/study/
    Here is the common lesson about the importance of #preparation, #prophylaxis, and #SpiritualStrongholds. But two other amazements are first that #fortifying was apparently a novel idea to Moroni's inspiration, and also not thought of before by the Lamanites, who evidently did not know how to deal with it. Not too much later, fortifying will be a normal thing for both Nephites and Lamanites.

  12. Joseph Fielding Smith reasons that if it’s not true, the claims of the church should be exposed!

    In other words, if it can be destroyed by the truth, it deserves to be destroyed by the truth.

  21. “In reality, most of us use a seer stone every day. My mobile phone is like a seer stone... I can even translate anything into or from many different languages!” – Elder Uchtdorf, Mormon Apostle

  22. I couldn’t figure out how Joseph Smith came up with The Book of Mormon. The explanations I’d seen from “anti” sources, just didn’t cut it. I happened upon a video presentation by Chris Johnson, “How The Book of Mormon destroyed Mormonism”, where, in short, he demonstrates that Joseph Smith, Jr., certainly borrowed from a book of his time “The Late War”, in the creation of The Book of Mormon.
