In this episode we go over the title page and the testimonies of the Book of Mormon. What is the purpose of the Book of Mormon? Did anyone see the plates? How was it translated? What should be do with it?
Title Page
AN ACCOUNT WRITTEN BY THE HAND OF MORMON, UPON PLATES TAKEN FROM THE PLATES OF NEPHI.
Wherefore it is an abridgment of the Record of the People of Nephi; and also of the Lamanites; written to the Lamanites, which are a remnant of the House of Israel; and also to Jew and Gentile; written by way of teshuvah, and also by the spirit of Prophesy and of Revelation. Written, and sealed up, and hid up unto YHVH, that they might not be destroyed; to come forth by the gift and power of Elohim unto the interpretation thereof; sealed by the hand of Moroni, and hid up unto YHVH, to come forth in due time by the way of Gentile; the interpretation thereof by the gift of Ruach Hakodesh; an abridgment taken from the Book of Ether.
Also, which is a Record of the People of Jared, which were scattered at the time YHVH confounded the language of the people when they were building a tower to get to Heaven: which is to shew unto the remnant of the House of Israel how great things YHVH hath done for their fathers; and that they may know the covenants of YHVH, that they are not cast off forever; and also to the convincing of the Jew and Gentile that Yeshua is HaMashiach (Messiah), YHVH, manifesting Himself unto all nations. And now if there be fault, it be the mistake of men; wherefore condemn not the things of Elohim, that ye may be found spotless at the judgment seat of the Messiah.
