2 Nephi 31:2

Wherefore, the things which I have written sufficeth me,

save it be a few words which I must speak concerning the doctrine of Christ;

wherefore, I shall speak unto you plainly,

according to the plainness of my prophesying.

2 Nephi 31:3

For my soul delighteth in plainness;

for after this manner doth the Lord God work among the children of men.

For the Lord God giveth light unto the understanding;

for he speaketh unto men according to their language, unto their understanding.

2 Nephi 31:7

Know ye not that he was holy?

But notwithstanding he being holy,

he showeth unto the children of men

that, according to the flesh he humbleth himself before the Father,

and witnesseth unto the Father

that he would be obedient unto him in keeping his commandments.

2 Nephi 31:13

Wherefore, my beloved brethren,

I know that if ye shall follow the Son, with full purpose of heart,

acting no hypocrisy and no deception before God, but with real intent,

repenting of your sins,

witnessing unto the Father that ye are willing

to take upon you the name of Christ, by baptism —

yea, by following your Lord and your Savior down into the water, according to his word,

behold, then shall ye receive the Holy Ghost;

yea, then cometh the baptism of fire and of the Holy Ghost;

and then can ye speak with the tongue of angels,

and shout praises unto the Holy One of Israel.

2 Nephi 31:18

And then are ye in this strait and narrow path which leads to eternal life;

yea, ye have entered in by the gate;

ye have done according to the commandments of the Father and the Son;

and ye have received the Holy Ghost, which witnesses of the Father and the Son,

unto the fulfilling of the promise which he hath made,

that if ye entered in by the way

ye should receive.
