The Book of Mormon was introduced in chapter 5: "Proclaim the Gospel." In this section, you'll find the actual text online, in a variety of formats.

• Rolling Valley Ward Gospel Doctrine Lessons Gospel Doctrine Lessons which separate the lesson into 3 sections: 1-The Facts/Events/History; 2-The Principles/Doctrine/Teachings; 3-The Application (for everyday life)
• LDS Gospel Doctrine Commentary on the Book of Mormon by General Authorities and scholars. Great for gospel doctrine teachers and serious students.
• Bible II. A commendable-if entirely misguided-effort to translate the Book of Mormon to American English. Modern copyright law requires the holders of a copyright to defend it, or lose it. The site contains a grudging deposition seeking information on how much of the Bible II was taken from the copyrighted 1981 edition of the Book of Mormon. Somewhere on this site lies the text of the Book of Mormon. Bizarre. http://www.bible2.com.
• Book of Mormon. Multiple search tools, in an easy-to-understand format. The search hits come up in context. Click on the hyperlinks to read additional surrounding text. http://members.aol.com/cumorahhil/bom_search.htm
• Book of Mormon. Straight text, chapter by chapter. Use the Find/Search command on your browser to search any chapter. http://www.math.byu.edu/~smithw/Lds/LDS/LDS-scriptures/Book_of_Mormon
• Free Book of Mormon. Another site for obtaining a free personal copy of the Book of Mormon. See chapter 5 for similar resources. http://www.mich.com/~romulans/freebom.html
• LDS Newton Books Texts. The Book of Mormon, ready for the Apple Newton Computer. I don't own the computer, so can't evaluate the content. The site itself, though, will be of interest to anyone who does. http://www.coolcontent.com/NewtonBooks
• Mormon's Story. The text of the Book of Mormon in a simpler English. While I'm a great fan of reading scriptures in their original form, I'm an even greater fan of understanding the scriptures-in whatever form generates understanding. Timothy Wilson's rewrite of the Book of Mormon is beautifully done, and it's all available online, at this Web site. If this is the kind of simplification it takes to get a child or a new reader through the Book of Mormon, it's a worthwhile venture. http://www.enoch.com/voicesfromdust/mormonstory/mormonstory.html
• Search the Book of Mormon. Use the Web to search the Book of Mormon by word or phrase. Great search tools. A Project Gutenberg text, housed at the University of Michigan. http://www.hti.umich.edu/relig/mormon
• The Book of Mormon. Deseret Book's online text of the Book of Mormon. Very readable. Lacks a search tool. http://www.deseretbook.com/scriptures/bom_home.html
