Simple question- How does the Book of Mormon square with the final statement in Revelations?

I take it you are referring to "The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen."

The Book of Mormon testifies of Jesus Christ, his being resurrected and returning in the Last Days just like the Book of Revelations.

That certainly squares.

The same way Deut squares with the New Testament!

Deut. 4
2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.

A simple answer: Who cares? The book of Deuteronomy ends with a similar warning. The book of revelations was written before many of the other gospels, do we throw them out too? Books of scripture were separate books. (Kind of like the Nancy Drew series.) They were separate until compiled into a collection or Biblia (See http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/02543a.htm) The order they were placed in was subject to debate, until a “logical” solution was reached (Revelations was last because no one understood it.)

Um, Does that answer your question?
