Alma 7:5

And I trust, according to the Spirit of God which is in me,

that I shall also have joy over you;

nevertheless I do not desire

that my joy over you should come

by the cause of so much afflictions and sorrow

which I have had for the brethren at Zarahemla,

for behold, my joy cometh over them

after wading through much affliction and sorrow.

for behold, I say unto you there be many things to come;

and behold, there is one thing which is of more importance than they all —

for behold, the time is not far distant

that the Redeemer liveth and cometh among his people.

Alma 7:8

Behold, I do not say that he will come among us

at the time of his dwelling in his mortal tabernacle;

for behold, the Spirit hath not said unto me that this should be the case.

Now as to this thing I do not know;

but this much I do know,

that the Lord God hath power to do all things

which are according to his word.

Alma 7:9

But behold, the Spirit hath said this much unto me, saying:

Cry unto this people, saying —

Repent ye,

and prepare the way of the Lord,

and walk in his paths, which are straight;

for behold, the kingdom of heaven is at hand,

and the Son of God cometh upon the face of the earth.
