Unit 21
Segment 1 of 2 [#139]
The Words of Christ
2 Nephi 32:1 - 2 Nephi 32:6
Duration: 1:22
2 Nephi 32:1
And now, behold, my beloved brethren,
I suppose that ye ponder somewhat in your hearts
concerning that which ye should do
after ye have entered in by the way.
But, behold, why do ye ponder these things in your hearts?
2 Nephi 32:2
Do ye not remember that I said unto you
that after ye had received the Holy Ghost
ye could speak with the tongue of angels?
And now, how could ye speak with the tongue of angels
save it were by the Holy Ghost?
2 Nephi 32:3
Angels speak by the power of the Holy Ghost;
wherefore, they speak the words of Christ.
Wherefore, I said unto you,
feast upon the words of Christ;
for behold, the words of Christ will tell you all things what ye should do.
2 Nephi 32:4
Wherefore, now after I have spoken these words,
if ye cannot understand them
it will be because ye ask not, neither do ye knock;
wherefore, ye are not brought into the light,
but must perish in the dark.
2 Nephi 32:5
For behold, again I say unto you
that if ye will enter in by the way, and receive the Holy Ghost,
it will show unto you all things what ye should do.
2 Nephi 32:6
Behold, this is the doctrine of Christ,
and there will be no more doctrine given
until after he shall manifest himself unto you in the flesh.
And when he shall manifest himself unto you in the flesh,
the things which he shall say unto you shall ye observe to do.
