2 Nephi 31:13, 17



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 31:17

Wherefore, do the things which I have told you I have seen

that your Lord and your Redeemer should do;

for, for this cause have they been shown unto me,

that ye might know the gate by which ye should enter.

For the gate by which ye should enter is repentance and baptism by water;

and then cometh a remission of your sins by fire and by the Holy Ghost.
