“I Shall Meet You Before the Pleasing Bar of God”
It is worthy of note that the four persons who contribute the most as writers in the Book of Mormon-Nephi, Jacob, Mormon, and Moroni-all certify that one’s acceptance or rejection of that which they have written by the power of the Spirit will be a crucial issue at the judgment bar of God. “And if they [his words in the Book of Mormon] are not the words of Christ,” Nephi challenged, “judge ye-for Christ will show unto you, with power and great glory, that they are his words, at the last day; and you and I shall stand face to face before his bar; and ye shall know that I have been commanded of him to write these things, notwithstanding my weakness” (2 Nephi 33:11; see also Mormon 3:18-22; Moroni 10:27).
