The Book of Mormon is a religious text that is considered sacred by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In this book, Widtsoe presents seven key claims made by the Book of Mormon and provides evidence to support each claim. The claims include the divine origin of the Book of Mormon, the existence of ancient American civilizations, and the visitation of Jesus Christ to the Americas. Widtsoe draws on a variety of sources, including archaeological discoveries and historical records, to support these claims. This book is intended for anyone interested in the Book of Mormon and its teachings, and the large print edition makes it accessible to a wider audience.(LARGE PRINT EDITION) 1937. The following study is part of a projected larger treatise on the evidences of the truth of Mormonism. It is aimed directly at the needs of missionaries and others who have need of brief, comprehensive summaries of the accumulated evidences for the truth of the work established by the Prophet Joseph Smith. The Seven Claims discussed in this work are: The Book of Mormon had a Miraculous Origin; The Book of Mormon was Written on Gold Plates in Reformed Egyptian by a Succession of Historians; There Existed a Populous American Civilization in Antiquity; The American Aborigines Are in Part of Hebrew Descent; Jesus Christ Visited the American Continent; The Contents of the Book of Mormon Are Inspired; and The Book of Mormon Offers a Certain Test of Its Authenticity.
