Enos 1:1, 3, 10, 13



Enos 1:1

behold, it came to pass that

and also in the nurture and admonition of the Lord —

and blessed be the name of my God for it —

concerning eternal life, and the joy of the saints,

Enos 1:10

And while I was thus struggling in the spirit,

I will visit thy brethren

according to their diligence in keeping my commandments.

I have given unto them this land,

and it is a holy land;

and I curse it not save it be for the cause of iniquity;

wherefore, I will visit thy brethren according as I have said;

and their transgressions will I bring down with sorrow upon their own heads.



Enos 1:13

And now behold, this was the desire which I desired of him —

and by any means be destroyed, and the Lamanites should not be destroyed,

that the Lord God would preserve a record of my people, the Nephites;

even if it so be by the power of his holy arm,

that it might be brought forth at some future day unto the Lamanites,

that, perhaps, they might be brought unto salvation —
