Allow me to please add a quick note regarding Jeanie's above notation....

Jeanie, There is NO SUCH thing as a stick of Judah being the Bible.... and The stick of Joseph being the Book of Mormons. ALL SCRIPTURE IS INSPIRED BY GOD....not Joseph Smith nor his successor Brigham Young.

In 2 Timothy 3:15b-17 "...the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through FAITH which is in Jesus Christ. All scripture is inspired by GOD and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work."

Chapter 4:2-3 "Preach the Word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with great patience and instruction.

Chapter 2:15 "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."

The Bible speaks for itself, and interprets itself!
