1 Nephi 15:12

Behold, I say unto you, that the house of Israel was compared unto an olive tree,

by the Spirit of the Lord which was in our father;

and behold are we not broken off from the house of Israel,

and are we not a branch of the house of Israel?

1 Nephi 15:13

And now, the thing which our father meaneth

concerning the grafting in of the natural branches

through the fulness of the Gentiles,

is, that in the latter days, when our seed shall have dwindled in unbelief,

yea, for the space of many years, and many generations

after the Messiah shall be manifested in body unto the children of men,

then shall the fulness of the gospel of the Messiah come unto the Gentiles,

and from the Gentiles unto the remnant of our seed —

1 Nephi 15:15

And then at that day will they not rejoice

and give praise unto their everlasting God, their rock and their salvation?

yea, at that day, will they not receive the strength and nourishment from the true vine?

yea, will they not come unto the true fold of God?

1 Nephi 15:28

And I said unto them that it was an awful gulf,

which separated the wicked from the tree of life, and also from the saints of God.

1 Nephi 15:30

And I said unto them that our father also saw

that the justice of God did also divide the wicked from the righteous;

and the brightness thereof was like unto the brightness of a flaming fire,

which ascendeth up unto God forever and ever, and hath no end.

1 Nephi 15:36

Wherefore, the wicked are rejected from the righteous,

and also from that tree of life,

whose fruit is most precious and most desirable above all other fruits;

yea, and it is the greatest of all the gifts of God.

And thus I spake unto my brethren.

Amen.
