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.

Alma 7:14

Now I say unto you

that ye must repent, and be born again;

for the Spirit saith

if ye are not born again ye cannot inherit the kingdom of heaven;

therefore come and be baptized unto repentance,

that ye may be washed from your sins,

that ye may have faith on the Lamb of God,

who taketh away the sins of the world,

who is mighty to save and to cleanse from all unrighteousness.

Alma 7:19

For I perceive that ye are in the paths of righteousness;

I perceive that ye are in the path which leads to the kingdom of God;

yea, I perceive that ye are making his paths straight.

Alma 7:21

And he doth not dwell in unholy temples;

neither can filthiness or anything which is unclean

be received into the kingdom of God;

therefore I say unto you

the time shall come,

yea, and it shall be at the last day,

that he who is filthy shall remain in his filthiness.

Alma 7:25

And may the Lord bless you, and keep your garments spotless,

that ye may at last be brought to sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,

and the holy prophets who have been ever since the world began,

having your garments spotless

even as their garments are spotless,

in the kingdom of heaven to go no more out.
