In all of the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, perhaps no documents have contained more important and significant truths than the two brief paragraphs known as "The Testimony of the Three Witnesses," and also "The Testimony of the Eight Witnesses." — These testimonies, bearing the names of the eleven men who were specifically chosen to bear record to the fact that Joseph Smith had in his possession the engraved gold plates which they themselves did see and handle with their own hands, are printed in the opening pages of the Book of Mormon. Here in book form have been collected the known facts pertaining to the lives and experiences of these eleven witnesses, not one of whom ever denied his testimony. The important documentary evidence and other historical data contained in this book offer irrefutable proof regarding the authenticity of the Book of Mormon and the divine mission of its inspired translator, Joseph Smith, the Mormon prophet. « less -- paperbackswap.com
