Alma 63 – The records are passed to Helaman’s son, Helaman. Many of the people board ships made by Hagoth and travel northward. Some travel by land.
We know through revelation that these people populated the tropical islands. When we went to the Polynesian Center in Hawaii, we spoke with a young man whose family tradition was to recite their lineage and his went back to Hagoth. When he read the Book of Mormon, it was familiar to him. He bore strong testimony to its truth.
At a youth camp I was privileged to attend nearly 18 years ago, a native American Indian group performed. Part of their performance was the recitation of their lineage which went back to Book of Mormon names. They too bore testimony to the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon from fact as well as the Spirit.
One would certainly think this would be sufficient to prove the Book of Mormon’s truth and therefore the truthfulness of the gospel. I guess the Spirit is the only one who can really do this task sufficiently.
