Nephi As Scribe, Brant A. Gardner Jan 2011

Nephi As Scribe, Brant A. Gardner

Review of Books on the Book of Mormon 1989–2011

Critics portrayed President Packer's printed clarification of his words as backing down under pressure. Six of his past addresses are reviewed here demonstrating that the clarification matches his past teachings.
