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 7:2

And now I, Mormon, speak unto you, my beloved brethren;

and it is by the grace of God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,

and his holy will, because of the gift of his calling unto me,

that I am permitted to speak unto you at this time.

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 7:6

For behold, God hath said

a man being evil cannot do that which is good;

for if he offereth a gift, or prayeth unto God,

except he shall do it with real intent

it profiteth him nothing.

Moroni 7:7

For behold, it is not counted unto him for righteousness.

Moroni 7:8

For behold, if a man being evil giveth a gift,

he doeth it grudgingly;

wherefore it is counted unto him the same

as if he had retained the gift;

wherefore he is counted evil before God.

Moroni 7:9

And likewise also is it counted evil unto a man,

if he shall pray and not with real intent of heart;

yea, and it profiteth him nothing,

for God receiveth none such.

Moroni 7:12

Wherefore, all things which are good cometh of God;

and that which is evil cometh of the devil;

for the devil is an enemy unto God, and fighteth against him continually,

and inviteth and enticeth to sin, and to do that which is evil continually.

Moroni 7:15

For behold, my brethren, it is given unto you to judge,

that ye may know good from evil;

and the way to judge is as plain,

that ye may know with a perfect knowledge,

as the daylight is from the dark night.

Moroni 7:16

For behold, the Spirit of Christ is given to every man,

that he may know good from evil;

wherefore, I show unto you the way to judge;

for every thing which inviteth to do good, and to persuade to believe in Christ,

is sent forth by the power and gift of Christ;

wherefore ye may know with a perfect knowledge it is of God.

Moroni 7:17

But whatsoever thing persuadeth men to do evil,

and believe not in Christ, and deny him, and serve not God,

then ye may know with a perfect knowledge it is of the devil;

for after this manner doth the devil work,

for he persuadeth no man to do good, no, not one;

neither do his angels;

neither do they who subject themselves unto him.

Moroni 7:22

being from everlasting to everlasting,

behold, he sent angels to minister unto the children of men,

that he did manifest things unto the children of men, which were good;

and all things which are good cometh of Christ;

otherwise men were fallen, and there could no good thing come unto them.

and by faith, they become the sons of God.

Whatsoever thing ye shall ask the Father in my name, which is good,

in faith believing that ye shall receive,

behold, it shall be done unto you.

Moroni 7:28

and he claimeth all those who have faith in him;

and they who have faith in him will cleave unto every good thing;

wherefore he advocateth the cause of the children of men;

and he dwelleth eternally in the heavens.

have miracles ceased?

neither have angels ceased to minister unto the children of men.

to minister according to the word of his command,

showing themselves unto them of strong faith

and a firm mind in every form of godliness.

and to fulfil and to do the work of the covenants of the Father,

which he hath made unto the children of men,

to prepare the way among the children of men,

by declaring the word of Christ unto the chosen vessels of the Lord,

that they may bear testimony of him.

Moroni 7:32

And by so doing, the Lord God prepareth the way

that the residue of men may have faith in Christ,

that the Holy Ghost may have place in their hearts,

according to the power thereof;

and after this manner bringeth to pass the Father, the covenants

which he hath made unto the children of men.

that ye may be saved.

if this be the case that these things are true

which I have spoken unto you,

and God will show unto you,

with power and great glory at the last day,

that they are true,

and if they are true

has the day of miracles ceased?

Moroni 7:36

Or have angels ceased to appear unto the children of men?

Or has he withheld the power of the Holy Ghost from them?

Or will he, so long as time shall last, or the earth shall stand,

or there shall be one man upon the face thereof to be saved?

Moroni 7:37

Behold I say unto you, Nay;

for it is by faith that miracles are wrought;

and it is by faith that angels appear and minister unto men;

wherefore, if these things have ceased

wo be unto the children of men,

for it is because of unbelief,

and all is vain.

Moroni 7:40

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.

save he shall be meek, and lowly of heart.

if ye have not charity, ye are nothing,

for charity never faileth.

Wherefore, cleave unto charity,

which is the greatest of all,

for all things must fail —

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.
