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 7:7

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 7:8

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 7:17

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.
