Alma 9:14, 19, 23

Alma 9:14

Now I would that ye should remember,

that inasmuch as the Lamanites have not kept the commandments of God,

they have been cut off from the presence of the Lord.

Now we see that the word of the Lord has been verified in this thing,

and the Lamanites have been cut off from his presence,

from the beginning of their transgressions in the land.

Alma 9:19

For he will not suffer you that ye shall live in your iniquities,

to destroy his people.

I say unto you,

Nay; he would rather suffer that the Lamanites might destroy all his people

who are called the people of Nephi,

if it were possible that they could fall into sins and transgressions,

after having had so much light and so much knowledge

given unto them of the Lord their God;

Alma 9:23

And now behold I say unto you, that

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

should transgress contrary to the light and knowledge which they do have,

I say unto you that if this be the case,

that if they should fall into transgression,

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