McConkie noted, “Almost all of the doctrines of the gospel are taught in the Book of Mormon with much greater clarity and perfection than those same doctrines are revealed in the Bible. The Book of Mormon makes a profound contribution to our understanding of gospel doctrine. The Book of Mormon makes clear that with an understanding of the Second Coming and a knowledge of how to prepare for it, we can look forward to the event with anticipation and hope.
Its writers saw our time and wrote for our needs as they preserved the record of a people who experienced the coming of Christ. It contains prophecies about the last days, and it presents a history that in many ways is similar to our own. It is a great testament of Jesus’ return. The doctrine of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is clarified by the Book of Mormon.
