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.

which have been done in the mortal body?

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

who should come to redeem his people from their sins.

I say unto you,

Nay; except ye make our Creator a liar from the beginning,

for they are the children of the kingdom of the devil.

both old and young, both bond and free;

the Spirit saith:

Behold, the ax is laid at the root of the tree;

Behold, and remember, the Holy One hath spoken it.

And now my beloved brethren, I say unto you,

can ye withstand these sayings;

yea, can ye lay aside these things,

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

among the names of the righteous,

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

for the word of God must be fulfilled.

that ye may not be destroyed.

and unto those who do not belong to the church

that ye also may be partakers of the fruit of the tree of life.
