The Book of Mormon is the writings of men who lived in American 1000s
of years ago...not the writing of God.
And what I say is when a prophet of God says something it is true not
because he says so but because my heart physically burns with the knowledge.
I pray for personal revelation and I get a physical feeling inside that
tells me
it is true. Everyone has this ability. It is called the Holy Ghost.
