truths restored by Book of Mormon

In a vision, Nephi saw that many of the teachings in the Bible would be changed over time but that God would prepare a way for those truths to be restored (see 1 Nephi 13:26–40).

  1. The Fall of Adam and Eve was a part of Heavenly Father’s plan (see 2 Nephi 2:22–25).

  2. We existed as spirits before this life, learning and preparing for mortality (see Alma 13:3).

  3. Christ visited the people of the ancient Americas and established His Church there (see 3 Nephi 11–26).

  4. Baptism is not needed for infants because they are not yet accountable (see Moroni 8:10).
