As the first Elder and Prophet of
The Restored Branch of Jesus Christ I want to express to the world our love and
appreciation for The Book of Mormon.
As a branch we cherish The Book
of Mormon we consider it a sacred text given to us by way of revelation through
the prophet Joseph Smith. The Book of Mormon is a central part of our worship
and our belief. It is true that The Restored Branch of Jesus Christ have other
sacred scriptures that we use but they do not take away the importance and need
for The Book of Mormon.
We consider ourselves part of the
wider restoration movement, we consider ourselves followers of The Book of
Mormon message and we endeavour to share that message with all the people of
our country and the wider world. We love The Book of Mormon and we consider it
important and special in bringing people closer to Christ and to a knowledge of
our covenants that we have made with Christ and He with us. Its place within
our Branch will never change and neither will our love for it falter.
We want to world to know that The
Restored Branch of Jesus Christ are followers of The Book of Mormon and the
Angel message it provides. We thank God for it in our loves and we hope that
our love for this great piece of scripture will bring us closer to our brothers
and sisters in the restoration.
