I am grateful for "B" - Book of Mormon

The Book of Mormon testifies of Jesus Christ and teaches us how to become His disciples. The Prophet Joseph Smith (1805–44) affirmed that “a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book” (History of the Church, 4:461; Book of Mormon introduction). As you study the Book of Mormon and are prayerful, the Holy Ghost continually bears witness to your heart and mind of the Savior’s divine role as the Redeemer of mankind.

Title Page

• •
  The Book of Mormon title page begins: “The Book of Mormon, an account written by the hand of Mormon upon plates taken from the plates of Nephi.” This is followed by two paragraphs, likely authored by the Book of Mormon prophet Moroni, son of Mormon. The ProphetJoseph Smith explained that “the title-page of the Book of Mormon is a literal translation, taken from the very last leaf, on the left hand side of the collection or book of plates, which contained the record which has been translated, the language of the whole running the same as all Hebrew writing in general [that is, from right to left]; and that said title page is not by any means a modern composition, either of mine or of any other man who has lived or does live in this generation” 
• How the Book of Mormon Is the Keystone
• •The Prophet Joseph Smith identified the Book of Mormon as the “keystone of our religion” (History of the Church, 4:461; Book of Mormon introduction). President Ezra Taft Benson explained the role of a keystone as follows:
• “A keystone is the central stone in an arch. It holds all the other stones in place, and if removed, the arch crumbles.
• “There are three ways in which the Book of Mormon is the keystone of our religion. 1.It is the keystone in our witness of Christ. 2.It is the keystone of our doctrine.  3.It is the keystone of testimony” (in Conference Report, Oct. 1986, 4; or Ensign, Nov. 1986, 5).
• •President James E. Faust (1920–2007) of the First Presidency expanded the idea of the Book of Mormon as our doctrinal keystone:
• “The Book of Mormon is a keystone because it establishes and ties together eternal principles and precepts, rounding out basic doctrines of salvation. It is the crowning gem in the diadem of our holy scriptures"
• I Have a testimony of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. I know that it teaches doctrine and principles to knowing Jesus Christ better, the importance of family and enduring to the end.
