contextual study / concordance



Mosiah 5:1

And now, it came to pass that

when king Benjamin had thus spoken to his people,

he sent among them, desiring to know of his people

if they believed the words which he had spoken unto them.


Mosiah 5:2

And they all cried with one voice, saying:

Yea, we believe all the words which thou hast spoken unto us;

and also, we know of their surety and truth,

because of the Spirit of the Lord Omnipotent,

which has wrought a mighty change in us, or in our hearts,

that we have no more disposition to do evil, but to do good continually.


Mosiah 5:3

And we, ourselves, also, through the infinite goodness of God,

and the manifestations of his Spirit,

have great views of that which is to come;

and were it expedient, we could prophesy of all things.


Mosiah 5:4

And it is the faith which we have had on the things

which our king has spoken unto us

that has brought us to this great knowledge,

whereby we do rejoice with such exceedingly great joy.


Mosiah 5:5

And we are willing to enter into a covenant with our God

to do his will, and to be obedient to his commandments

in all things that he shall command us,

all the remainder of our days,

that we may not bring upon ourselves a never–ending torment,

as has been spoken by the angel,

that we may not drink out of the cup of the wrath of God.
