Alma 7:2

And even I could not have come now at this time

were it not that the judgment-seat hath been given to another,

to reign in my stead;

and the Lord in much mercy hath granted that I should come unto you.

Alma 7:3

And behold, I have come having great hopes and much desire

that I should find that ye had humbled yourselves before God,

and that ye had continued in the supplicating of his grace,

that I should find that ye were blameless before him,

that I should find that ye were not in the awful dilemma

that our brethren were in at Zarahemla.

Alma 7:6

But behold, I trust that ye are not in a state of so much unbelief

as were your brethren;

I trust that ye are not lifted up in the pride of your hearts;

yea, I trust that ye have not set your hearts

upon riches and the vain things of the world;

yea, I trust that you do not worship idols,

but that ye do worship the true and the living God,

and that ye look forward for the remission of your sins,

with an everlasting faith,

which is to come.

Alma 7:18

For as I said unto you from the beginning,

that I had much desire

that ye were not in the state of dilemma like your brethren,

even so I have found that my desires have been gratified.
