Amulek Explains the Resurrection
Alma 11:38 - Alma 11:46
Duration: 2:24
Alma 11:38
Now Zeezrom saith again unto him:
Is the Son of God the very Eternal Father?
Alma 11:39
And Amulek said unto him:
Yea, he is the very Eternal Father of heaven and of earth,
and all things which in them are;
he is the beginning and the end,
the first and the last;
Alma 11:40
And he shall come into the world to redeem his people;
and he shall take upon him the transgressions of those who believe on his name;
and these are they that shall have eternal life,
and salvation cometh to none else.
Alma 11:41
Therefore the wicked remain as though there had been no redemption made,
except it be the loosing of the bands of death;
for behold, the day cometh that all shall rise from the dead
and stand before God, and be judged according to their works.
Alma 11:42
Now, there is a death which is called a temporal death;
and the death of Christ shall loose the bands of this temporal death,
that all shall be raised from this temporal death.
Alma 11:43
The spirit and the body shall be reunited again in its perfect form;
both limb and joint shall be restored to its proper frame,
even as we now are at this time;
and we shall be brought to stand before God,
knowing even as we know now,
and have a bright recollection of all our guilt.
Alma 11:44
Now, this restoration shall come to all,
both old and young, both bond and free, both male and female,
both the wicked and the righteous;
and even there shall not so much as a hair of their heads be lost;
but every thing shall be restored to its perfect frame,
as it is now, or in the body,
and shall be brought and be arraigned
before the bar of Christ the Son, and God the Father, and the Holy Spirit,
which is one Eternal God,
to be judged according to their works,
whether they be good or whether they be evil.
Alma 11:45
Now, behold, I have spoken unto you concerning the death of the mortal body,
and also concerning the resurrection of the mortal body.
I say unto you that this mortal body is raised to an immortal body,
that is from death, even from the first death unto life,
that they can die no more;
their spirits uniting with their bodies, never to be divided;
thus the whole becoming spiritual and immortal,
that they can no more see corruption.
Alma 11:46
Now, when Amulek had finished these words
the people began again to be astonished,
and also Zeezrom began to tremble.
And thus ended the words of Amulek,
or this is all that I have written.
