1 Nephi 10:17

And it came to pass after I, Nephi, having heard all the words of my father,

concerning the things which he saw in a vision,

and also the things which he spake by the power of the Holy Ghost,

which power he received by faith on the Son of God

— and the Son of God was the Messiah who should come —

I, Nephi, was desirous also

that I might see, and hear, and know of these things, by the power of the Holy Ghost,

which is the gift of God unto all those who diligently seek him,

as well in times of old

as in the time that he should manifest himself unto the children of men.



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 12:11

And the angel said unto me: Look!

And I looked, and beheld three generations pass away in righteousness;

and their garments were white even like unto the Lamb of God.

And the angel said unto me:

These are made white in the blood of the Lamb,

because of their faith in him.



1 Nephi 12:18

And the large and spacious building, which thy father saw,

is vain imaginations and the pride of the children of men.

And a great and a terrible gulf divideth them;

yea, even the word of the justice of the Eternal God, and the Messiah

who is the Lamb of God,

of whom the Holy Ghost beareth record,

from the beginning of the world until this time,

and from this time henceforth and forever.



1 Nephi 14:10

And he said unto me:

Behold there are save two churches only;

the one is the church of the Lamb of God,

and the other is the church of the devil;

wherefore, whoso belongeth not to the church of the Lamb of God

belongeth to that great church, which is the mother of abominations;

and she is the whore of all the earth.
