LDS Discussions - Mormon Truth Claims Examined

02: Golden Plates and the Book of Mormon

Listen Later

Today John is joined by LDS Discussions and Nemo to review the history of the "Golden Plates" as they relate to the creation of the Book of Mormon.

Who did the first accounts come from of the existence of these plates? Were they real? What became of attempts to see, show, or steal them? What implications do these stories have on Mormon origins and beliefs regarding encounters with celestial beings, including the God supposedly at the center of their coming forth?

Special Guest: Nemo the Mormon on YouTube
