Martin Harris: Declarações sobre "Olho da fé" e "Olhos espirituais"
Perguntas e Respostas
Pergunta: Será que as testemunhas do Livro de Mórmon perceber que eles seriam ridicularizados e não creram?
The witnesses were not naive
They knew that they would not be believed by many, and would suffer ridicule or personal/professional costs. Despite this, they stuck to their claims.
David Whitmer recalled:
"When we were first told to publish our statement, we felt sure the people would not believe it, for the Book told of a people who were refined and dwelt in large cities; but the Lord told us that He would make it known to the people, and people should discover the ruins of the lost cities and abundant evidence of the truth of what is written in the Book."[1]
