This book is the first definitive work on the "Heartland Model" of Book of Mormon geography. Introduces the reader to an authoritative hierarchy of "witnesses," beginning with the 36 Prophecies and Promises that the book's ancient writers intended their latter-day readers to use in identifying the Promised Land of their day and ours.This book is having an effect on the resurgence of Book of Mormon interest, study, and excitement akin to what the Dead Sea Scrolls discovery did for spurring Biblical energies...Reading Prophecies and Promises is like having your eyes opened wide for the first time. It is mind-expanding and faith-promoting. Many readers have said, "this just makes sense!" That is the most common reaction the book generates. Shock and surprise that these plain facts, truths, and verities have been before their eyes all these years and somehow they just never got it. Another reader, called the publisher to say "I've never before read anything on this topic that makes more sense and I've been studying this topic all my life!" A well-known General Authority called to ask if he could have all of chapter 7 on Adam on Diahman for a talk he gave at a university. Another reviewer wrote: "The implications from this research are important and exciting, something to be embraced by 'those who have eyes to see and ears to hear'. This is an incredibly important work that provides further testament to the divinity and truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. Bravo, Dr. Porter and Bro. Rod Meldrum! I look forward to more of your research." The authors speak with a powerful, authoritative testimony of the scriptures themselves which assert their own authority. These 36 "Prophecies and Promises" are repeated more than 200 times throughout the text of the Book of Mormon. They boil down to 18 prophecies regarding the Land of Promise and 18 prophecies regarding the Gentiles who will inhabit that same land in the last days. It becomes a matter of simple deduction as you begin to check off the boxes of which nation-state can satisfy all 36 of these inspired prophecies. These prophetic statements have stood the test of time and these prophecies stand today as a second witness to the wisdom and majesty of God's Prophet, Seer, and Revelator, Joseph Smith Jr. who, once again is right on every count -- including even the geographical setting for the Book of Mormon!
