Abstract

The Book of Mormon account of Jesus’ ministry among the Nephites sharpens our understanding of the principle of service by showing how true disciples should minister to others. That account is clearer and more precise than the New Testament one on many points relating to the Gospel. It focuses not only on the words of Jesus (doctrine), but also on his actions (application of the doctrines). By the power of Christ, Mormon saw into the future—our day (Mormon 3:16–22). It therefore seems fair to assume that he carefully selected material to provide lessons rooted in our own situation.
