John 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
The other few verses are from 2 Nephi in the Book of Mormon....now, anyone who's reading this who doesn't believe the Book of Mormon to be the word of God and that it's not another scripture, PLEASE just think about this as if you just randomly read it, for the moment don't focus on the fact that it's from the Book of Mormon
2 Nephi 29:6-11
6 Thou fool, that shall say: A Bible, we have got a Bible, and we need no more Bible. Have ye obtained a Bible save it were by the Jews?
7 Know ye not that there are more nations than one? Know ye not that I, the Lord your God, have created all men, and that I remember those who are upon the isles of the sea; and that I rule in the heavens above and in the earth beneath; and I bring forth my word unto the children of men, yea, even upon all the nations of the earth?
8 Wherefore murmur ye, because that ye shall receive more of my word? Know ye not that the testimony of two nations is a witness unto you that I am God, that I remember one nation like unto another? Wherefore, I speak the same words unto one nation like unto another. And when the two nations shall run together the testimony of the two nations shall run together also.
9 And I do this that I may prove unto many that I am the same yesterday, today, and forever; and that I speak forth my words according to mine own pleasure. And because that I have spoken one word ye need not suppose that I cannot speak another; for my work is not yet finished; neither shall it be until the end of man, neither from that time henceforth and forever.
10 Wherefore, because that ye have a Bible ye need not suppose that it contains all my words; neither need ye suppose that I have not caused more to be written.
11 For I command all men, both in the east and in the west, and in the north, and in the south, and in the islands of the sea, that they shall write the words which I speak unto them; for out of the books which shall be written I will judge the world, every man according to their works, according to that which is written.
These scriptures were truly answers to my prayers. Even if you don't believe the Book of Mormon is true which is what I was struggling with when I came across these. It just makes sense, it just clicks. I mean why would the Savior only visit one country? Did you think that no one else lived in the world at the time? That He would just ignore the rest of the world and not share His word? The Book of Mormon are the prophecies and testimonies and stories of the people living in the America's before during and after Christ was on the Earth. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and that we need to follow the commandments and counsel given there just as we need to follow the commandments and counsel given in the Bible.
