1 Nephi 11:26

And the angel said unto me again:

Look and behold the condescension of God!


1 Nephi 11:27

And I looked and beheld the Redeemer of the world,

of whom my father had spoken;

and I also beheld the prophet who should prepare the way before him.

And the Lamb of God went forth and was baptized of him;

and after he was baptized,

I beheld the heavens open,

and the Holy Ghost come down out of heaven

and abide upon him in the form of a dove.


1 Nephi 11:28

And I beheld that he went forth

ministering unto the people, in power and great glory;

and the multitudes were gathered together to hear him;

and I beheld that they cast him out from among them.


1 Nephi 11:29

And I also beheld twelve others following him.

And it came to pass that they were carried away in the Spirit from before my face,

and I saw them not.


1 Nephi 11:30

And it came to pass that the angel spake unto me again, saying: Look!

And I looked, and I beheld the heavens open again,

and I saw angels descending upon the children of men;

and they did minister unto them.


1 Nephi 11:31

And he spake unto me again, saying: Look!

And I looked, and I beheld the Lamb of God

going forth among the children of men.

And I beheld multitudes of people who were sick,

and who were afflicted with all manner of diseases,

and with devils and unclean spirits;

and the angel spake and showed all these things unto me.

And they were healed by the power of the Lamb of God;

and the devils and the unclean spirits were cast out.


1 Nephi 11:32

And it came to pass that the angel spake unto me again, saying: Look!

And I looked and beheld the Lamb of God,

that he was taken by the people;

yea, the Son of the everlasting God was judged of the world;

and I saw and bear record.


1 Nephi 11:33

And I, Nephi, saw that he was lifted up upon the cross

and slain for the sins of the world.


1 Nephi 11:34

And after he was slain I saw the multitudes of the earth,

that they were gathered together to fight against the apostles of the Lamb;

for thus were the twelve called by the angel of the Lord.


1 Nephi 11:35

And the multitude of the earth was gathered together;

and I beheld that they were in a large and spacious building,

like unto the building which my father saw.

And the angel of the Lord spake unto me again, saying:

Behold the world and the wisdom thereof;

yea, behold the house of Israel hath gathered together

to fight against the twelve apostles of the Lamb.


1 Nephi 11:36

And it came to pass that I saw and bear record,

that the great and spacious building was the pride of the world;

and it fell, and the fall thereof was exceedingly great.

And the angel of the Lord spake unto me again, saying:

Thus shall be the destruction of all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people,

that shall fight against the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
