Book of Mormon and Christmas

It sure dont feel like christmas being 65 degrees down here in the south, but everytime we go to members they have all their decorations up and give us presents which then makes it feel a little more like christmas. But anyways ima make this one short so I can give yall a real good long juicy one next week because I know yall love the lengthy ones. Cuz lets be honest yall dont care too much about my life. But I wanna hit all yall struggling folks with some facts. Book of Mormon. If yall are having doubts... "oh a 14 year old boy doesn't know what hes talking about" "he had multiple wives" "Pedophile" "He made it up" and all that crap... like shut up. "No wicked man COULD EVER WRITE THAT BOOK and NO RIGHTEOUS MAN WOULD EVER WRITE THAT BOOK." We have seen so many people try to tell us that the book of mormon is not true, and each and every person that has told me that has not read the book, or some have read it but skipped through pages not paying attention to what God is trying to teach them. Theres a literal promise in that book that tells us if we read it (with real intent) then pray about it (with sincerity) WE WILL KNOW THE TRUTHFULNESS OF IT. If you're going to sit there and say the church is not true there is no way you could do so with out "crawling under, over, or around the book of mormon." THERE ARE 16 MILLION OR SO PEOPLE WHO HAVE FIRM TESTIMONIES OF THAT BOOK, WHO HAVE CHANGED THEIR LIVES FOR THE BETTER DUE TO THAT BOOK, WHO NOW HAVE HOPE BECAUSE OF THIS VERY BOOK. HOW COULD YOU THINK FOR ONE SECOND THAT THEY ARE ALL LYING OR THEY DONT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT!? Theres actually another missionary who joined the church after trying to read the book of mormon to DISPROVE it, but quickly realized it is the work if God. I'm just frustrated guys I'm sorry, I have come to know the truthfulness of the book of mormon while I have been out on my mission. Which has brought me Joy beyond belief. I know so much more now than I ever did before. This Church is true. I have had my fair share of doubts. Infact coming on my mission was an act of trying to learn for myself if this gospel is worth living.... and I found out pretty quickly. Just hold on to what you do know and push forward in faith. It seems too easy to just read/study the book of mormon and then you will have a testimony but that really is all it takes. This further knowledge of our Savior is right at our fingertips... hes waiting for us to just reach out to him. Revelations 3:20 he stands at the door and waits. He doesn't come walking in and smack us in the face saying "I'm real you need to believe in me and get back to heaven so you dont perish." That destroys the whole plan, and sometimes that doesn't work. (Laman and Lemuel for example) Wow I just ranted but I'm sorry the ignorance of some people is just getting to me and I just had to share my thoughts. Sorry guys also some of those quotes up there are from Jeffrey R Holland he goes hard. I love him. Love yall -Elder Wilson 1)cute pic at mission conference 2)my bishop and I doing a face swap 3) Joy, at Mama Lillies house 4) Shout out to Ryan Crashing lol 5) us at Tisba, Brother Patterson plays guitar at Tisba so we were watching lol.
