President Ezra Taft Beson said,"It is not just the the Book of Mornon teaches us truth, though it does that. It is not just that the Book of Mormon bears testimony of Christ, thought it indeed does that, too. But there is something more. There is a power in the book which will begin to flow into your lives the moment you begin a serious study of the book. You will find greater pwer to resist temptation. You will find the power to avoid deception. You will find the power to stay on the strait and narrow path. The scriptures are called "the words of life" (See D&C 84:85) and nowhere is that more true than it is of the Book of Mormon. When you begin to hunger and thirst after those words you will find life in greater and greater abundance."
(The Book of Mormon, Keystone of Our Religion)
Elder Neil L. Anderson said: "Challenges, difficulties, questions, doubts-these are part of our mortality. But we are not alone. As disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ, we have enormous spiritual reservoirs of light and truth available to us. Fear and faith cannot coexist in our hearts at the same time. In our days of difficulty, we choose the road of faith. Jesus said, "Be not afraid, only believe' (See Mark 5:28)
"Through the years we take these important spiritual steps over and over again. We begin to see that 'he that receiveth light, and continueth in the perfect day' (See D&C 50:24). Our questions and doubts are resolved or become less concerning to us. Our faith becomes simple and pure. We come to know what we already knew."
