“If ye believe that”

When Mormon tells the descendants of Lehi that “if ye believe that (the record of the Jews that will come to the gentiles and from the gentiles to you) ye will believe this also” i had always understood that to mean anyone who truly believed the Bible would naturally believe the Book of Mormon. I realized tonight that he was speaking to the seed of Lehi for a reason. From their place he was speaking to any of them who had converted to Christianity and thus believed in the Bible. Any descendants of Lehi who had come to believe the Bible would naturally recognize the truth of the Book of Mormon is they were exposed to it. The combination of the blood of Lehi and the conversation to Christianity makes it a natural step when the Book of Mormon is presented.
