But behold, I say unto you that

if ye persist in your wickedness

that your days shall not be prolonged in the land,

and ye shall be visited with utter destruction;

and it shall be according to the fierce anger of the Lord.

And now behold I say unto you, that

if this people, who have received so many blessings from the hand of the Lord,

that if they should fall into transgression,

it would be far more tolerable for the Lamanites than for them.

And now for this cause, that ye may not be destroyed,

Alma 9:28

Therefore, prepare ye the way of the Lord,

for the time is at hand that all men shall reap a reward of their works,

according to that which they have been —

if they have been righteous

they shall reap the salvation of their souls,

according to the power and deliverance of Jesus Christ;

and if they have been evil

they shall reap the damnation of their souls,

according to the power and captivation of the devil.
