by pam on Mar.02, 2011, under Talks
As one of that small group who have been very close to President Ezra Taft Benson during all of the eight and one-half years he has served as our Prophet and President, I have been present on virtually every occasion when he and his counselors have met with the Council of the Twelve Apostles. I have been present on every occasion when he has instructed the General Authorities, and I have read all of the books he has written and studied the written text of all of the talks he has given as President of the Church.
Ezra Taft Benson – The Book of Mormon Is the Word of God
by pam on Jan.01, 2010, under Talks
As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, “we believe … the Book of Mormon to be the word of God.” (A of F 1:8.) God has so declared it, so have its writers, so have its witnesses, and so do all those who have read it and received a personal revelation from God as to its truthfulness.
In section 20 of the Doctrine and Covenants the Lord says that He gave Joseph Smith “power from on high … to translate the Book of Mormon; which contains … the fulness of the gospel of Jesus Christ … which was given by inspiration.” (D&C 20:8–10.)
