If the people in the old World did not inquire of the Lord concerning the Lord’s “other sheep,” both Nephites and ten tribes-and we have no evidence that they ever did-then the Book of Mormon would stand eventually as a sacred record of the fact that he did visit them. The Book of Mormon and the gospel message would be restored through the Gentiles-lineal Israelites but cultural Gentiles the Latter-day Saints (see 1 Nephi 22:7; D&C 109:60)-and then brought to Israel (Lamanites and Jews) in the fast days.
