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 7:2

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 7:5

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.

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 7:7

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 7:14

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 7:15

Yea, I say unto you

come and fear not, and lay aside every sin, which easily doth beset you,

which doth bind you down to destruction,

yea, come and go forth, and show unto your God

that ye are willing to repent of your sins

and enter into a covenant with him to keep his commandments,

and witness it unto him this day by going into the waters of baptism.

Alma 7:17

And now my beloved brethren, do you believe these things?

Behold, I say unto you,

yea, I know that ye believe them;

and the way that I know that ye believe them

is by the manifestation of the Spirit which is in me.

And now because your faith is strong concerning that,

yea, concerning the things which I have spoken,

great is my joy.

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.

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.

Alma 7:22

And now my beloved brethren, I have said these things unto you

that I might awaken you to a sense of your duty to God,

that ye may walk blameless before him,

that ye may walk after the holy order of God,

after which ye have been received.

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.

Alma 7:26

And now my beloved brethren, I have spoken these words unto you

according to the Spirit which testifieth in me;

and my soul doth exceedingly rejoice,

because of the exceeding diligence and heed

which ye have given unto my word.

Alma 7:27

And now, may the peace of God rest upon you,

and upon your houses and lands,

and upon your flocks and herds, and all that you possess,

your women and your children,

according to your faith and good works, from this time forth and forever.

And thus I have spoken.

Amen.
