1 Nephi 15:12, 14, 17, 31, 33, 36



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 15:14

And at that day shall the remnant of our seed know

that they are of the house of Israel,

and that they are the covenant people of the Lord;

and then shall they know and come to the knowledge of their forefathers,

and also to the knowledge of the gospel of their Redeemer,

which was ministered unto their fathers by him;

wherefore, they shall come to the knowledge of their Redeemer

and the very points of his doctrine,

that they may know how to come unto him and be saved.



1 Nephi 15:17

And this is what our father meaneth;

and he meaneth that it will not come to pass

until after they are scattered by the Gentiles;

and he meaneth that it shall come by way of the Gentiles,

that the Lord may show his power unto the Gentiles,

for the very cause that he shall be rejected of the Jews, or of the house of Israel.



1 Nephi 15:31

And they said unto me:

Doth this thing mean the torment of the body in the days of probation,

or doth it mean the final state of the soul after the death of the temporal body,

or doth it speak of the things which are temporal?



1 Nephi 15:33

Wherefore, if they should die in their wickedness

they must be cast off also, as to the things which are spiritual,

which are pertaining to righteousness;

wherefore, they must be brought to stand before God,

to be judged of their works;

and if their works have been filthiness they must needs be filthy;

and if they be filthy it must needs be

that they cannot dwell in the kingdom of God;

if so, the kingdom of God must be filthy also.



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.
