Nephi’s Clue to Evidence of Book of Mormon’s Authenticity

Nephi’s Clue to Evidence of Book of Mormon’s Authenticity

Elder B. H. Roberts (1857–1933) of the Seventy said: “The power of the Holy Ghost … must ever be the chief source of evidence for the Book of Mormon. All other evidence is secondary. … No arrangement of evidence, however skillfully ordered; no argument, however adroitly made, can ever take its place.”

Though archaeological evidence should not be the chief source of our faith in the Book of Mormon, as one author explains, evidence does help affirm the faith of the believers.

“What no one shows the ability to defend is quickly abandoned. Rational argument does not create belief, but it maintains a climate in which belief may flourish.” – Austin Farrar

One of these evidences of the Book of Mormon is the location Nahom. This was the first location that Nephi referenced by name, without having named it himself. Check out this interesting video that will help to affirm your faith in the Book of Mormon. This clue that Nephi leaves us has been invaluable in providing archaeological proof of the Book of Mormon.
