Provided by anti-Mormon sites
Warning: The links below take you to scripture resources that are provided by organizations which actively preach against the Church. It is Feast upon the Word's hope that over time organizations sympathetic to the Church (or at least neutral) will provide members with tools that meet the needs provided by these anti-Mormon sites making these links irrelevant.
- The Blue Letter Bible provides good lexical tools for studying the Bible. There is a bit of a learning curve at first to using it. Check out the help.
- You may not find the anti-Mormon literature here unless you go looking for it.
- 1830 version of the Book of Mormon: this site provides scanned images. The quality is not very good but legible and the images load quickly.
