September 22, 1828
Today is the 190th anniversary of the day when Joseph obtained the Harmony plates from Moroni for the second time. This was after Martin Harris lost the 116 pages.
Maybe by the 200th anniversary, in 2027, everyone in the Church will accept what Joseph and Oliver taught about Cumorah in Letter VII.
Actually, I hope that day arrives sooner. Maybe in 2023, the 200th anniversary of the date when Joseph first saw the plates?
Or 2020, the 200th anniversary of the First Vision?
But why wait? How about this year, in 2018?
Think of what a difference it would make in the Church and in the world if all of our LDS scholars and educators decided, finally, to embrace what Joseph and Oliver and all of their successors taught?

One thought on “September 22, 1828”
The move would be from an indefensible, fanciful and wishful thinking position for the location of Cumorah in Central America to a concrete, absolute location and supported by all of the prophets. The Church’s position becomes one of strength instead of weakness.
