Have you ever played the game Telephone?  Have your class/group stand in a circle.  Whisper a message to the first person and they pass the message along until the last person has received the message.  That person then says aloud what they were told.  More often than not, it is very different than the original message.  Explain that the Bible contains several books of scriptures which are considered divine revelation.  The Bible went through many hands and thus the translation is not as clear.  Heavenly Father has continued to give us divine revelations, the Book of Mormon, which clarify and continue to testify of Christ, just like the Bible.  Together they represent one message, unlike the game above which can have many messages.
