Witnesses of Christ – The Book of Mormon

While the Bible is a record of the Jews in Jerusalem, the Book of Mormon is a record of those living concurrently in the Americas. The Book of Mormon contains commandments, revelations, and teachings of Jesus Christ.

The Lord remembers all His children. In John 10:16 the Lord says, "And
other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring,
and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one
shepherd." After His death and resurrection, Jesus visited the people
on the American continents. Just as the Jews kept a record of their
interactions with the Savior, so also did the ancestors of the Native
Americans.

In the year 600 B.C., God called a prophet among the Jews named Lehi to
help call the people to repentance. Because the people would not
repent, God instructed Lehi to leave Jerusalem with his family and a
few others who would listen because the people were going to be brought
into captivity and their city destroyed by the Babylonians.

Lehi left with his family and friends and eventually reached the ocean.
Lehi's people received a commandment from God to build a ship and they
would be guided to a land of promise. By the grace of God, Lehi's
people sailed to their land of promise which today we call the American
Continent.
