First Nephi Chapter Six - 1 Nephi 6

Verses 5 & 6.  These are great.  4 is great too.  At any rate, from verse 6 we gather that whatever we are going to read in the Book of Mormon, is of worth unto the children of men.  It is of great worth unto us.  Unto me and unto you.  This book doesn't have a bunch of fluff that is nice to read.  The Book of Mormon will bring you closer to God (v.4).  That's a pretty awesome and important thing. 

I love how unapologetic Nephi is in verse 5.  He is not writing this to please the people.  He writes to please God.  God loves you and gives you only good gifts.  Every single thing you find in the Book of Mormon has the potential to impact you for good.  It contains only writings and teachings and principles that are of worth unto the children of men.  Worth.  They are worthy.  Worthy of your time and attention.
 
 This is nice too.
