Words of Mormon 1:4

And the things which are upon these plates pleasing me, because of the prophecies of the coming of Christ; and my fathers knowing that many of them have been fulfilled; yea, and I also know that as many things as have been prophesied concerning us down to this day, have been fulfilled; and as many as go beyond this day, must surely come to pass;

I like what is on these plates because they tell about Jesus Christ coming. My fathers knew that many of these prophecies have come true. I also know that everything that has been prophesied about us up to now has happened. And everything that will happen in the future must surely come true.

What’s on these plates moved me, especially the prophecies about Christ’s coming. My ancestors knew many of them had come true. I know, too, that everything prophesied about us up to this day has happened, and what lies beyond will certainly come to pass.
