Some students of the Book of Mormon have asked the question how the teachings of Mormon on faith, hope, and charity (found in Moroni 7) could be so similar to the teachings of Paul on this same subject (1 Corinthians 13:4-8). Although the Book of Mormon does not provide the exact answer to this question, at least two possibilities exist: (1) The statement on faith, hope, and charity may not have been original with either Mormon or Paul; it may have been contained in an ancient record available to both of them, or it may have been included in the teachings of the Savior that are not recorded either in the New Testament or in the Book of Mormon. (2) All revelation is received through the power of the Holy Ghost, and the Holy Ghost may have revealed this idea in essentially the same way to both Mormon and Paul.
