.: DOES THE HOLY GHOST ANSWER PRAYER FOR THE BOOK OF MORMON TESTIMONY?

“I was browsing the Internet when I came across your site.  Sounds informative, but I have a question on this statement you made. In your article on Mormon Splinter Groups, the following question was asked: ‘Since all of these movements base their authority on the Book of Mormon and the Prophet Joseph Smith, how can a ‘testimony’ gained through praying about the Book of Mormon be sufficient to prove which church of all of these movements one should join?’  I am curious to know whether you believe in prayers being answered by God.  I don’t know if it would prove anything, but I believe God answers prayers, and if He said it was true then it must be true, and if He said it wasn’t then it is not true.  One thing I do believe in also is the Holy Ghost.  He is known as the Comforter, a Testifier.  If I can’t feel comfort, I don’t know how the Holy Ghost can get to me in helping to comfort me.  So, in this way, I do believe that the Spirit of God can communicate with our spirits through a feeling since we cannot see Him. What do you believe?”
