Abstract

The Book of Mormon is the “most correct book.” This is not to be understood as “perfect.” The words “correct” and “perfect” are not necessarily synonymous. The book is correct in far greater ways than in grammar, spelling, punctuation, and so on. It speaks of restored doctrines of the gospel, faith, repentance, the Atonement, baptism, and the Holy Ghost. These are the saving principles and ordinances that bring one back into the presence of the Father.
