2 Nephi 9:3, 9, 11, 12, 13, 16, 42, 47



2 Nephi 9:3

Behold, my beloved brethren,

I speak unto you these things

that ye may rejoice, and lift up your heads forever,

because of the blessings which the Lord God shall bestow upon your children.



2 Nephi 9:9

And our spirits must have become like unto him,

and we become devils, angels to a devil,

to be shut out from the presence of our God,

and to remain with the father of lies,

in misery, like unto himself;

yea, to that being who beguiled our first parents,

who transformeth himself nigh unto an angel of light,

and stirreth up the children of men unto secret combinations of murder

and all manner of secret works of darkness.



2 Nephi 9:11

And because of the way of deliverance of our God, the Holy One of Israel,

this death, of which I have spoken, which is the temporal,

shall deliver up its dead; which death is the grave.



2 Nephi 9:12

And this death of which I have spoken, which is the spiritual death,

shall deliver up its dead; which spiritual death is hell;

wherefore, death and hell must deliver up their dead,

and hell must deliver up its captive spirits,

and the grave must deliver up its captive bodies,

and the bodies and the spirits of men will be restored one to the other;

and it is by the power of the resurrection of the Holy One of Israel.



2 Nephi 9:13

O how great the plan of our God!

For on the other hand,

the paradise of God must deliver up the spirits of the righteous,

and the grave deliver up the body of the righteous;

and the spirit and the body is restored to itself again,

and all men become incorruptible, and immortal,

and they are living souls,

having a perfect knowledge like unto us in the flesh,

save it be that our knowledge shall be perfect.



2 Nephi 9:16

And assuredly, as the Lord liveth,

for the Lord God hath spoken it,

and it is his eternal word, which cannot pass away,

that they who are righteous shall be righteous still,

and they who are filthy shall be filthy still;

wherefore, they who are filthy are the devil and his angels;

and they shall go away into everlasting fire, prepared for them;

and their torment is as a lake of fire and brimstone,

whose flame ascendeth up forever and ever and has no end.



2 Nephi 9:42

And whoso knocketh, to him will he open;

and the wise, and the learned, and they that are rich,

who are puffed up because of their learning, and their wisdom, and their riches —

yea, they are they whom he despiseth;

and save they shall cast these things away,

and consider themselves fools before God,

and come down in the depths of humility,

he will not open unto them.



2 Nephi 9:47

But behold, my brethren,

is it expedient that I should awake you to an awful reality of these things?

Would I harrow up your souls if your minds were pure?

Would I be plain unto you according to the plainness of the truth

if ye were freed from sin?
