What is the difference between the Bible timeline and the LDS timeline?

Answer by  preach2teach (8)

There is some controversy regarding what separates them. LDS timeline includes the prophet Joseph Smith's accounts as noted in the Book of Mormon (which begins 600 BC) and the Bible's timeline is somewhat varied depending on whose theory of origin you agree with - those that say it was transcribed during the time of Christ or hundreds of years after.

There is no difference. The Church of Latter Day Saints believes in the Bible completely. The Book of Mormon is set in the 1800s, and tells of an angelic messenger visiting Joseph Smith.

The timeline of the Bible and the Book of Mormon (LDS book) overlap. The Book of Mormon begins around 600 B. C. and includes the time during Christ's birth and death.
