Alma 5:3

I, Alma, having been consecrated by my father, Alma,

to be a high priest over the church of God,

he having power and authority from God to do these things,

behold, I say unto you

that he began to establish a church in the land

which was in the borders of Nephi;

yea, the land which was called the land of Mormon;

yea, and he did baptize his brethren in the waters of Mormon.

And now behold, I ask of you, my brethren of the church,

have ye spiritually been born of God?

Have ye received his image in your countenances?

Do ye exercise faith in the redemption of him who created you?

Do you look forward with an eye of faith,

and view this mortal body raised in immortality,

and this corruption raised in incorruption,

to stand before God to be judged according to the deeds

which have been done in the mortal body?

Alma 5:16

for behold, your works have been the works of righteousness

upon the face of the earth?

Lord, our works have been righteous works upon the face of the earth —

I say unto you,

ye will know at that day that ye cannot be saved;

for there can no man be saved except his garments are washed white;

through the blood of him of whom it has been spoken by our fathers,

who should come to redeem his people from their sins.

Alma 5:27

Have ye walked, keeping yourselves blameless before God?

Could ye say, if ye were called to die at this time, within yourselves,

that ye have been sufficiently humble?

That your garments have been cleansed

and made white through the blood of Christ,

who will come to redeem his people from their sins?

Alma 5:44

For I am called to speak after this manner,

according to the holy order of God, which is in Christ Jesus;

yea, I am commanded to stand and testify unto this people

the things which have been spoken by our fathers

concerning the things which are to come.

Alma 5:47

And moreover, I say unto you that

it has thus been revealed unto me,

that the words which have been spoken by our fathers are true,

even so according to the spirit of prophecy which is in me,

which is also by the manifestation of the Spirit of God.

Alma 5:54

Yea, will ye persist in supposing that ye are better one than another;

yea, will ye persist in the persecution of your brethren,

who humble themselves and do walk after the holy order of God,

wherewith they have been brought into this church,

having been sanctified by the Holy Spirit,

and they do bring forth works which are meet for repentance —
