Alma 12:24

And we see that death comes upon mankind,

yea, the death which has been spoken of by Amulek,

which is the temporal death;

nevertheless there was a space granted unto man in which he might repent;

therefore this life became a probationary state;

a time to prepare to meet God;

a time to prepare for that endless state

which has been spoken of by us,

which is after the resurrection of the dead.

Alma 13:1

And again, my brethren, I would cite your minds forward to the time

when the Lord God gave these commandments unto his children;

and I would that ye should remember

that the Lord God ordained priests, after his holy order,

which was after the order of his Son,

to teach these things unto the people.

Alma 13:2

And those priests were ordained after the order of his Son,

in a manner that thereby the people might know

in what manner to look forward to his Son for redemption.

Alma 13:7

This high priesthood being after the order of his Son,

which order was from the foundation of the world;

or in other words, being without beginning of days or end of years,

being prepared from eternity to all eternity,

according to his foreknowledge of all things —

Alma 13:9

Thus they become high priests forever,

after the order of the Son, the Only Begotten of the Father,

who is without beginning of days or end of years,

who is full of grace, equity, and truth.

And thus it is.

Amen.
