The Peter Whitmer farm in Fayette, New York, includes the reconstructed cabin where the Church was organized in 1830. It was in an upper room in that cabin where Joseph and Oliver translated the last of the Book of Mormon. Here's a photo I took of the replica of the table they used for their work. I thought it was cool that the sun came through the window this way, basically symbolizing revelation.BOOK OF MORMON SETTING. Many Latter-day Saints still believe what the prophets have taught about the New York Cumorah/Ramah. President Nelson: "Good inspiration is based upon good information." Here, we share good information from original sources that corroborates the prophets. We support the Church policy of neutrality, which promotes unity by recognizing multiple working hypotheses. We encourage all interested parties to do the same, all in the pursuit of clarity, charity and understanding.
long ago ideas
“When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago." - Friedrich Nietzsche.
Long ago, Joseph Smith and Oliver Cowdery conquered false claims that the Book of Mormon was fiction or that it came through a stone in a hat. But these old claims have resurfaced in recent years. To conquer them again, we have to return to what Joseph and Oliver taught.
