Alma 12:6, 11, 17, 36, 37



Alma 12:6

And behold I say unto you all

that this was a snare of the adversary,

which he has laid to catch this people,

that he might bring you into subjection unto him,

that he might encircle you about with his chains,

that he might chain you down to everlasting destruction,

according to the power of his captivity.



Alma 12:11

And they that will harden their hearts,

to them is given the lesser portion of the word

until they know nothing concerning his mysteries;

and then they are taken captive by the devil,

and led by his will down to destruction.

Now this is what is meant by the chains of hell.



Alma 12:17

Then is the time when their torments shall be as a lake of fire and brimstone,

whose flame ascendeth up forever and ever;

and then is the time that they shall be chained down to an everlasting destruction,

according to the power and captivity of Satan,

he having subjected them according to his will.



Alma 12:36

And now, my brethren, behold I say unto you, that

if ye will harden your hearts

ye shall not enter into the rest of the Lord;

therefore your iniquity provoketh him

that he sendeth down his wrath upon you as in the first provocation,

yea, according to his word in the last provocation as well as the first,

to the everlasting destruction of your souls;

therefore, according to his word, unto the last death, as well as the first.



Alma 12:37

And now, my brethren, seeing we know these things, and they are true,

let us repent, and harden not our hearts,

that we provoke not the Lord our God to pull down his wrath upon us

in these his second commandments which he has given unto us;

but let us enter into the rest of God,

which is prepared according to his word.
