Alma 7:1, 14, 20, 21



Alma 7:1

Behold my beloved brethren,

seeing that I have been permitted to come unto you,

therefore I attempt to address you in my language;

yea, by my own mouth,

seeing that it is the first time

that I have spoken unto you by the words of my mouth,

I having been wholly confined to the judgment-seat,

having had much business that I could not come unto you.



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 7:20

I perceive that it has been made known unto you, by the testimony of his word,

that he cannot walk in crooked paths;

neither doth he vary from that which he hath said;

neither hath he a shadow of turning from the right to the left,

or from that which is right to that which is wrong;

therefore, his course is one eternal round.



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.
