Alma 9:11, 12, 24

Alma 9:11

Yea, and if it had not been for his matchless power,

and his mercy, and his long-suffering towards us,

we should unavoidably have been cut off from the face of the earth

long before this period of time,

and perhaps been consigned to a state of endless misery and woe.

Alma 9:12

Behold, now I say unto you that he commandeth you to repent;

and except ye repent, ye can in nowise inherit the kingdom of God.

But behold, this is not all —

he has commanded you to repent,

or he will utterly destroy you from off the face of the earth;

yea, he will visit you in his anger,

and in his fierce anger he will not turn away.

Alma 9:24

For behold, the promises of the Lord are extended to the Lamanites,

but they are not unto you if ye transgress;

for has not the Lord expressly promised and firmly decreed,

that if ye will rebel against him

that ye shall utterly be destroyed from off the face of the earth?
