2 Nephi 9:4, 7



2 Nephi 9:4

For I know that ye have searched much, many of you,

to know of things to come;

wherefore I know that ye know that our flesh must waste away and die;

nevertheless, in our bodies we shall see God.



2 Nephi 9:7

Wherefore, it must needs be an infinite atonement —

save it should be an infinite atonement

this corruption could not put on incorruption.

Wherefore, the first judgment which came upon man

must needs have remained to an endless duration.

And if so, this flesh must have laid down to rot

and to crumble to its mother earth, to rise no more.
