War


“Of the 239 chapters in the Book of Mormon, 174 (73%) deal with war, terrorism, murder, political conspiracies, secret combinations, threats, family collisions, and other hostilities.

“Why did the Book of Mormon record keepers preserve so many incidents of war? President Ezra Taft Benson answered, “From the Book of Mormon we learn how Disciples of Christ live in times of war.”

David Brent Marsh, “How Disciples of Christ Live in Times of War and Violence,” Ensign, Sept 2012, 44.
