Jacob 4:4, 7, 12, 13

Jacob 4:4

For, for this intent have we written these things,

that they may know that we knew of Christ,

and we had a hope of his glory many hundred years before his coming;

and not only we ourselves had a hope of his glory,

but also all the holy prophets which were before us.

Jacob 4:7

Nevertheless, the Lord God showeth us our weakness that we may know

that it is by his grace, and his great condescensions unto the children of men,

that we have power to do these things.

Jacob 4:12

And now, beloved, marvel not that I tell you these things;

for why not speak of the atonement of Christ,

and attain to a perfect knowledge of him,

as to attain to the knowledge of a resurrection and the world to come?

Jacob 4:13

Behold, my brethren, he that prophesieth,

let him prophesy to the understanding of men;

for the Spirit speaketh the truth and lieth not.

Wherefore, it speaketh of things as they really are,

and of things as they really will be;

wherefore, these things are manifested unto us plainly,

for the salvation of our souls.

But behold, we are not witnesses alone in these things;

for God also spake them unto prophets of old.
