The Book of Mormon; The word of God

Being out on a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is not easy. There are so many people here ready to argue their beliefs and try and tear down my faith, and The Book of Mormon itself. There are many people that believe the Bible to be the word of God, and we as Mormons believe the Bible to be the word of God as long as it is translated correctly (article of faith 8). I am not as learned in the Bible as many of the people out here, and what is new to me is the opposition from people who believe the Bible but will not believe the Book of Mormon. There are many who are extremely nice, caring, and genuine followers of Christ. They will do whatever is commanded of them to get back and live with our heavenly father again, and that way is laid out in 2 Nephi 31. This chapter is all about the doctrine of Christ. The doctrine of Christ is the plan, or steps that we have to do here on earth so we can return to live with God again. Only through faith, repenting of our past transgressions, being baptized by someone holding the restored priesthood authority of God, receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end, can we be received into our Father's kingdom.
The Book of Mormon is another testament of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is our savior and only through him we can reach our father in heaven. I would invite those not of the LDS faith to read The Book of Mormon, and then pray with a sincere heart, having faith in Christ, (Moroni 10:4-5) and you will receive an answer to your question. You too can come to a full understanding of Jesus Christ's full and perfect gospel through The Book of Mormon.
In the introduction of The Book of Mormon it reads, "The Book of Mormon is a volume of holy scripture comparable to the Bible. It is a record of God’s dealings with the ancient inhabitants of the Americas and contains the fullness of the everlasting gospel."
 I promise that as you read this book and pray for the truthfulness of its message, you will know in your heart by the power of the Holy Spirit that these things are true. You will know that The Book of Mormon is the word of God.
