Alma 7:1, 5, 10, 15, 17, 20

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 7:5

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 7:10

And behold, he shall be born of Mary, at Jerusalem

which is the land of our forefathers,

she being a virgin, a precious and chosen vessel,

who shall be overshadowed

and conceive by the power of the Holy Ghost,

and bring forth a son,

yea, even the Son of God.

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 7:20

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.
