SCRIPTURE OF THE DAY 2 Nephi 31:20 |

Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.

QUOTE OF THE DAY Joseph Fielding Smith |
|
“With such a glorious hope before us, can we do less than forsake the evil ways of the world? Shall we not put first in our lives the things of God’s kingdom? Shall we not seek to live by every word that proceedeth forth from his mouth?” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Fielding Smith, p. 237).

A Man that Can Translate: Joseph Smith and the Nephite Interpreters
NEW and EXPANDED from the original edition (July 2021) with a new Appendix reviewing Rough Stone Rolling and other new content. The book has over 400 footnotes and careful analysis of the historical evidence. This is the first book to explain the new "demonstration" narrative, which reconciles the stone-in-the-hat (SITH) testimony with the Urim and Thummim testimony. The evidence shows that while Joseph Smith translated the golden plates with the Urim and Thummim, he also conducted a demonstration for his supporters in the Whitmer home in Fayette.
