I Think two of the biggest concerns people have about the LDS church is Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon. I hope I can clear things up a bit.First of all, we do not worship Joseph Smith. We hold him in great reverence for the work he has done and respect him greatly, but we do not worship him. We worship God our Father and His son Jesus Christ. We, of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, are Christians. The name of Christ is part of the name of the church. I know that Christ lives, that He died for me, and that some day He will return.
The Book of Mormon is not our Bible. We read the Bible, believe in the Bible and study the Bible in church. We also study, read, and believe in the Book of Mormon. The Book of Mormon is another testament of Christ, it is a companion to the Bible. The Bible tells of Christ's life and ministry in the Holy Land. The Book of Mormon tell of the people living in America, and of Christ's visit and ministry in America. I know the Book of Mormon is the word of God, just as the Bible is. I know that Jesus Christ came to America to teach the people who lived here, we are His other sheep spoken of in the Bible. I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt that anyone who reads the Book of Mormon and sincerely wishes to know of it's truthfulness can pray and they WILL receive an answer. The Lord hears and answers our prayers, and he will answer yours.
