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 7:3

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 7:5

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 7:8

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 7:14

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 7:21

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.
