Elder Wardell talks about the Book of Mormon...


10-27-14


well heres the scoop.
    Well, today I finished the book of mormon for the second time on my misison, and as i was reading in moroni 9 today, i had the most distinct impression that the book could not possibly be wrong. there is absolutely no possible way. the way it perfectly supports itself throughout, and testifies of the savior, and teaches his doctrine, and teaches nothing but charity and love for one another, makes me believe that it is God's true book. It also reminds me of another perfection i found. We recently had an exchange in the apartment, and one of the zone leaders came down for the day. he was showing us his planner that night, and there was a little blue card in there, called the 17 points of the true church. Elder Park told me the story of the 17 points.
so before ww2 there was a guy who wanted to find the true church because he was confused about all the contradicting churches. so he studied hard in the bible and found the 17 points of christs church when he (Christ) founded it in the bible. sadly, before he could search for the church that had those points. he had to go to war. but many of his friends did not. he gave them the seventeen points. when he came home from the war, he found his friends and found that they all had been baptised into a church that they had discovered had
 each and everyone of the points. he met with these two missionaries from that church and was shortly later baptised.
I left the points at home but will send them next week.
well, sadly the scoop is going to have to be short this week,
but our investigators are doing well! they are moving along, and next week, might very well have a picture of another "swim party" :) love you all!

Note from Mom:  We belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. You may know us as members of the "Mormon Church". We know that the Book of Mormon is a book of ancient scripture that provides a 2nd Witness of Jesus Christ. If you would like to know more about this book you can go here  . You can also obtain a free copy of this book if you are interested. To read this book online you can go here You can read for yourselves the writings of the Book of Mormon as well as read  the Testimony of those 11 witnesses who saw and handled the plates which contained the writings which make up the Book of Mormon.  I would like to add my testimony to that of Elder Wardell's. I know the Book of Mormon is a true Book which teaches us about Jesus Christ.  I know that Jesus Christ is the Savior and Redeemer of the World. I know that it is through the Atonement of Jesus Christ that all men might be saved and that we might have eternal life.  Vicki Wardell
