Mormonism: Power of the Book of Mormon
The Book of Mormon possesses a great spiritual power to its readers. Mormonism is derived from the Book of Mormon and is an additional testament of Jesus Christ and His mission in our eternal salvation. Just as the Bible possesses great insight and histories among God's children in the Eastern hemisphere, the Book of Mormon contains God's teachings to the people in living in the Western Hemisphere. The spirit of the Holy Ghost testifies of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon being an additional book of holy scripture.
Helaman, a Book of Mormon prophet, writes of the purpose of preserving these ancient records to bring souls to salvation. Helaman teaches that God 'shows for His power in them (the Book of Mormon records), and he will also still show forth his power in them unto future generations; therefore they shall be preserved.' God preserved the writings of His prophets no matter where in the world they lived. Because of God's preservation we have both the Bible and the Book of Mormon to study and ponder God's words. This is part of what Mormonism encompasses.
I love reading the Book of Mormon! I read it every day. I feel a special power when reading this book of scripture. I feel both peace and strength when I read in the Book of Mormon. Over time and devotion to its study, I've learned I can rely on this book of scripture to give me strength amidst all my struggles in this life. The Book of Mormon is a source of strength and Godly power that I can count on to bring me peace and keep me focused on the things of God.
