2 Nephi 25:20

And now, my brethren, I have spoken plainly that ye cannot err.

And as the Lord God liveth that brought Israel up out of the land of Egypt,

and gave unto Moses power that he should heal the nations

after they had been bitten by the poisonous serpents,

if they would cast their eyes unto the serpent which he did raise up before them,

and also gave him power that he should smite the rock

and the water should come forth;

yea, behold I say unto you, that as these things are true,

and as the Lord God liveth,

there is none other name given under heaven

save it be this Jesus Christ, of which I have spoken,

whereby man can be saved.


2 Nephi 25:21

Wherefore, for this cause hath the Lord God promised unto me

that these things which I write shall be kept and preserved,

and handed down unto my seed, from generation to generation,

that the promise may be fulfilled unto Joseph,

that his seed should never perish as long as the earth should stand.


2 Nephi 25:22

Wherefore, these things shall go from generation to generation

as long as the earth shall stand;

and they shall go according to the will and pleasure of God;

and the nations who shall possess them shall be judged of them

according to the words which are written.


2 Nephi 25:23

For we labor diligently to write,

to persuade our children, and also our brethren,

to believe in Christ, and to be reconciled to God;

for we know that it is by grace that we are saved,

after all we can do.
