Excerpt from Birth of the Messiah by Paul Thomas Smith.
(reading only)
As time drew near for the birth of the Messiah, the Lord sent Samuel, a Lamanite prophet, to call the Nephite people of Zarahemla, in the Americas, to repentance and to tell them that in five years "cometh the Son of God to redeem all those who shall believe on his name.
"And behold, this will I give unto you for a sign at the time of his coming, that in the night before he cometh there shall be no darkness, insomuch that it shall appear unto man as if it was day.
"Therefore, there shall be one day and a night and a day, as if it were one day and there were no night; And behold, there shall a new star arise, such an one as ye never have beheld; and this also shall be a sign unto you" (Hel. 14:3—5).
