contextual study / concordance



Mosiah 3:16

And even if it were possible that little children could sin

they could not be saved;

but I say unto you

they are blessed;

for behold, as in Adam, or by nature, they fall,

even so the blood of Christ atoneth for their sins.


Mosiah 3:17

And moreover, I say unto you,

that there shall be no other name given nor any other way nor means

whereby salvation can come unto the children of men,

only in and through the name of Christ, the Lord Omnipotent.


Mosiah 3:18

For behold he judgeth, and his judgment is just;

and the infant perisheth not that dieth in his infancy;

but men drink damnation to their own souls

except they humble themselves and become as little children,

and believe that salvation was, and is, and is to come,

in and through the atoning blood of Christ, the Lord Omnipotent.


Mosiah 3:19

For the natural man is an enemy to God,

and has been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever,

unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit,

and putteth off the natural man

and becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord,

and becometh as a child,

submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love,

willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him,

even as a child doth submit to his father.


Mosiah 3:20

And moreover, I say unto you,

that the time shall come when the knowledge of a Savior shall spread

throughout every nation, kindred, tongue, and people.


Mosiah 3:21

And behold, when that time cometh,

none shall be found blameless before God,

except it be little children,

only through repentance and faith on the name of the Lord God Omnipotent.


Mosiah 3:22

And even at this time, when thou shalt have taught thy people the things

which the Lord thy God hath commanded thee,

even then are they found no more blameless in the sight of God,

only according to the words which I have spoken unto thee.
