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,

which was in the borders of Nephi;

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

O ye workers of iniquity;

ye that are puffed up in the vain things of the world,

and is still calling after you,

but ye will not hearken unto his voice!

the things which have been spoken by our fathers

concerning the things which are to come.

they are made known unto me by the Holy Spirit of God.

and this is the spirit of revelation which is in me.

Alma 5:53

And now my beloved brethren, I say unto you,

can ye withstand these sayings;

yea, can ye lay aside these things,

and trample the Holy One under your feet;

yea, can ye be puffed up in the pride of your hearts;

yea, will ye still persist in the wearing of costly apparel

and setting your hearts upon the vain things of the world, upon your riches?

Alma 5:57

And now I say unto you,

all you that are desirous to follow the voice of the good shepherd,

come ye out from the wicked,

and be ye separate, and touch not their unclean things;

and behold, their names shall be blotted out,

that the names of the wicked shall not be numbered

among the names of the righteous,

that the word of God may be fulfilled, which saith:

The names of the wicked shall not be mingled with the names of my people;
