Mormon 8 Death of Mormon, Moroni Takes Over


Moroni finishes the record of his father, Mormon.  He talks of a “great and tremendous battle at Cumorah” wherein hundreds of thousands died including his father.  He becomes the final author of the Book of Mormon.  He reports having seen the three disciples whom Jesus miraculously changed so that they couldn’t die or feel any physical pain.  He speaks directly to us in the latter days: “Behold, I speak unto you as if ye were present, and yet ye are not.  But behold, Jesus Christ hath shown you unto me, and I know your doing.”  He has strong words for the wicked, calling them to repentance.
