“The instrument of truth that brought my healing from the
Lord came as pages in a book, yes, the Book of Mormon: Another Testament of
Jesus Christ! It has been hurled at me that the means by which this book came
to be were impractical, unbelievable, embarrassing, even unholy. Now, that is
harsh language from anyone who presumes to know the means by which the book
came to be, inasmuch as the only description given about those means is that it
was translated ‘by the gift and power of God.’ That’s it. That’s all. In any
case, the impact of the Book of Mormon in my life is no less miraculous than
was the application of spit and dirt placed on the blind man’s eyes. It has
been, for me, a rod of safety for my soul, a transcendent and penetrating light
of revelation, an illumination of the path I must walk when mists of darkness
come.” – Elder Jeffrey R. Holland
