I Would Exhort You

When one first picks up the Book of Mormon, one of the first things that you read is "Another Testament of Jesus Christ," and it is truly so.  Nephi explains that "we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may look for a remission of their sins."  (see 2 Nephi 25:26)  As we search and as we ponder the words of the prophets, both prophets of old and our latter-day prophets, we are led and directed to our Savior Jesus Christ. 

Easy for me to say though right?  I was raised in the faith and have had almost 19 years of study and guidance to the truth, but I had to come  know for myself that what I'm saying now is true.  He has laid a plan for us, and he has given us to tools whereby we can find the truth.  Ask Him who is the source of all truth!  Take the challenge that Moroni gave all of us in Moroni 10:3-5 and "ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true."  Even if you have already asked, try it again!!  It will only strengthen your testimony and your knowledge.  I know that the Book of Mormon is a true testament of Jesus Christ.  If you have any questions at all, PLEASE, visit http://www.mormon.org/ invite the missionaries into your home, and feel of the witness that comes only through the Holy Ghost!
