Moroni has indicated that the Book of Mormon comes as one of the mercies of God, and that it may be understood as true through the power of the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is a gift from God. After the positive exhortation to accept the Book of Mormon, Moroni warns us against denying the gifts of God. The Book of Mormon comes to us as a witness of God, and we may receive it as intended, as a gift. However, there will be those who deny this gift, and Moroni attempts to warn such people that they should not deny the Book of Mormon simply because it is not the same type of gift as others they might accept. For instance, many might accept the Bible as a gift of God, but not accept the Book of Mormon as being that same kind of gift.
