Just as hastily Robert published the correspondence in his New York City newspaper, the Free Enquirer, not knowing that he would receive another, longer letter from William within days, just in time to be included in his weekly’s next run. What proved to be so pressing was what William had discovered onboard the canal boat: “I have met,” he announced dramatically, “with the famous ‘Book of Mormon.’”1 Published in 1830, the Book of Mormon claimed to be nothing short of scripture, an account of America’s ancient inhabitants (themselves a scattered Hebrew remnant) and God’s dealings with them over a long and bloody history.

  • Westminster Confession of Faith with Scripture Proofs
    THE CONFESSION OF FAITH Chapter 1 Of the Holy Scripture 1. Although the light of nature, and the works of creation and providence do so far manifest the goodness, wisdom, and power of God, as to leave men unexcusable;a yet are they not sufficient to give that knowledge of God, and of his will, which is necessary unto salvation.b Therefore it pleased the Lord, at sundry times, and in divers manners, to reveal himself, and to declare that his will unto his a. Rom. 2:14–15. For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another. Rom. 1:19–20. Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse. Ps. 19:1–4. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.

  • The Witness of the King and Queen Astonished the Specta- Jesus According to His Timing
    Published Quarterly by The Book of Mormon Foundation Number 119 • Summer 2006 Now the people which were not Lamanites, were Nephites; nevertheless, they were called Nephites, Jacobites, Josephites, Zoramites, Lamanites, Lemuelites, and Ishmaelites. But I, Jacob, shall not hereafter Sam, the Son distinguish them by these names, but I shall call them Lamanites, that seek to destroy the people of Nephi; and those who are friendly to Nephi, I shall call Nephites, or the people of Nephi, according to the reigns of the kings. (Jacob 1:13-14; see also 4 Nephi 1:40-42; of Lehi Mormon 1:8 RLDS) [Jacob 1:13-14, see also 4 Nephi by Gary Whiting 1:36-38, Mormon 1:8 LDS] he opening pages of the Book of Mormon describe Each of the sons of Lehi had families that developed the faith and struggles of the prophet Lehi as seen into tribes known by the name of the son who fathered them.

  • Sam: a Just and Holy Man
    Sam: A Just and Holy Man “[Lehi] spake unto Sam, saying: Blessed art thou, and thy seed; for thou shalt inherit the land like unto thy brother Nephi.” (2 Nephi 4:11) Some of the most notable people in the Book of Mormon are the prophets and men of God: Lehi, Nephi, Jacob, Alma, Mormon, and Moroni. But many others are mentioned in the Book of Mormon of whom we know little. Some of these are witnesses to great events; however, because they are not main characters in the event, they are only mentioned in passing. One of these lesser-known individuals is Nephi’s older brother Sam. Though Sam is mentioned quite often in the rst two books of Nephi, we have only the barest sketch of him as a person. This would not seem out of the ordinary except when we realize that Sam was witness to early Nephite history. Almost every hardship and adventure that Lehi’s family went through—leaving Jerusalem, obtaining the brass plates, voyaging across the ocean, settling the new land—were probably also experienced by Sam. Yet how much do we know of him? Let’s explore the few verses that mention him specically and those that imply his presence, and from these come to a better understanding of the man called “just and holy” (Alma 3:6) in the book of Alma. We know nothing of Sam’s childhood, nor do we know how old he was when the events in 1 Nephi began.1 It has been conjectured that Nephi was in his midteens when his family left Jerusalem.2 If so, then Sam must have been in his late teens (or early twenties).3 We can safely assume Sam was given the same parental care and training as Nephi.
