Moroni 7:1

And now I, Moroni, write a few of the words of my father Mormon,

which he spake concerning faith, hope, and charity;

for after this manner did he speak unto the people,

as he taught them in the synagogue

which they had built for the place of worship.



Moroni 7:3

Wherefore, I would speak unto you that are of the church,

that are the peaceable followers of Christ,

and that have obtained a sufficient hope

by which ye can enter into the rest of the Lord,

from this time henceforth until ye shall rest with him in heaven.



Moroni 7:40

And again, my beloved brethren, I would speak unto you concerning hope.

How is it that you can attain unto faith, save ye shall have hope?



Moroni 7:41

And what is it that ye shall hope for?

Behold I say unto you that ye shall have hope

through the atonement of Christ and the power of his resurrection,

to be raised unto life eternal,

and this because of your faith in him according to the promise.



Moroni 7:42

Wherefore, if a man have faith he must needs have hope;

for without faith there cannot be any hope.



Moroni 7:43

And again, behold I say unto you that he cannot have faith and hope,

save he shall be meek, and lowly of heart.



Moroni 7:44

If so, his faith and hope is vain,

for none is acceptable before God,

save the meek and lowly in heart;

and if a man be meek and lowly in heart,

and confesses by the power of the Holy Ghost

that Jesus is the Christ,

he must needs have charity;

for if he have not charity he is nothing;

wherefore he must needs have charity.



Moroni 7:48

Wherefore, my beloved brethren,

pray unto the Father with all the energy of heart,

that ye may be filled with this love,

which he hath bestowed upon all

who are true followers of his Son, Jesus Christ;

that ye may become the sons of God;

that when he shall appear we shall be like him,

for we shall see him as he is;

that we may have this hope;

that we may be purified even as he is pure.

Amen.
