The Book of Mormon: Part 7 (2 Nephi chapters 28-29)

/ Daniel Mynyk/ No Comments

This episode is part 7 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.

2 Nephi chapters 28-29 continue Nephi’s prophecies. These two chapters of the Book of Mormon lash out at what it deems false churches who oppress people and that the clergy teach their own wisdom rather than what comes from the Holy Ghost. While there can be much truth to what is said there, the Book of Mormon’s antidote leaves much to be desired.

2 Nephi chapter 29 especially mocks later Gentile Christians who claim the Bible is the final Word of God. As God argues to us, according to the Book of Mormon, that we should expect lots more Scripture to come, we can test the Book of Mormon’s claims according to the tests in the Bible.
