“The overwhelming majesty of the universe suggested a major communication problem God has with man. Our limited, finite minds could not contain many answers even if God chose to give them to us… Living by faith, then, is not simply a test, but a necessity—until we are ready to receive more divine data… When we often can’t frame the right question, and could not contain the answer if it were given, silence must be God’s only response at times.”

The Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John are accounts of the ministry of Jesus Christ, emphasizing His teachings, parables, miracles, Atonement, death, and Resurrection. In contrast, the Book of Mormon explains WHY the life and teachings of Jesus are so vitally important to the world. In other words, the Gospel writers tell WHAT Jesus did in the Old World. The Book of Mormon writers tell WHY it was so important that He came to earth and performed the Atonement to redeem us all.
