When you read the
Book of Mormon, concentrate on the principal
figure in the book--from its first chapter to the
last--the Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God. Great prophets of the Book
of Mormon--in their own way and time--testified of the
divinity of the Lord Jesus Christ. Among them were the brother of
Jared, Zenock, Neum, and Zenos. Testimonies of Jesus Christ that
predated His birth in Bethlehem were also recorded from
King Benjamin, Abinadi, Alma the Younger, Alma
the Elder, Amulek, the sons of Mosiah,
Captain Moroni, the brothers Nephi and Lehi,
and Samuel the Lamanite.
In a seemingly endless
sequence of prophetic proclamations--testimonies
of "all the holy prophets" for "a great many thousand years
before his coming"--the Book of Mormon makes the solemn
declaration that Jesus is the Christ, our
Savior and Redeemer.
