1 Nephi 11:11

And I said unto him:

To know the interpretation thereof —

for I spake unto him as a man speaketh;

for I beheld that he was in the form of a man;

yet nevertheless, I knew that it was the Spirit of the Lord;

and he spake unto me as a man speaketh with another.



1 Nephi 11:19

and after she had been carried away in the Spirit for the space of a time

the angel spake unto me, saying: Look!



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 13:4

the formation of a great church.



1 Nephi 13:5

And the angel said unto me:

Behold the formation of a church

which is most abominable above all other churches,

which slayeth the saints of God,

yea, and tortureth them and bindeth them down,

and yoketh them with a yoke of iron,

and bringeth them down into captivity.



1 Nephi 13:23

And he said:

Behold it proceedeth out of the mouth of a Jew.

And I, Nephi, beheld it;

and he said unto me:

The book that thou beholdest is a record of the Jews,

which contains the covenants of the Lord,

which he hath made unto the house of Israel;

and it also containeth many of the prophecies of the holy prophets;

and it is a record like unto the engravings

which are upon the plates of brass,

save there are not so many;

nevertheless, they contain the covenants of the Lord,

which he hath made unto the house of Israel;

wherefore, they are of great worth unto the Gentiles.



1 Nephi 13:24

And the angel of the Lord said unto me:

Thou hast beheld that the book proceeded forth from the mouth of a Jew;

and when it proceeded forth from the mouth of a Jew

it contained the fulness of the gospel of the Lord,

of whom the twelve apostles bear record;

and they bear record according to the truth which is in the Lamb of God.
