2 Nephi 31:3, 14, 17, 19

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 31:14

But, behold, my beloved brethren,

thus came the voice of the Son unto me, saying:

After ye have repented of your sins, and witnessed unto the Father

that ye are willing to keep my commandments, by the baptism of water,

and have received the baptism of fire and of the Holy Ghost,

and can speak with a new tongue,

yea, even with the tongue of angels,

and after this should deny me,

it would have been better for you that ye had not known me.

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.

2 Nephi 31:19

And now, my beloved brethren,

after ye have gotten into this strait and narrow path,

I would ask if all is done?

Behold, I say unto you, Nay;

for ye have not come thus far

save it were by the word of Christ with unshaken faith in him,

relying wholly upon the merits of him who is mighty to save.
