Alma 12:9, 14, 35, 36



Alma 12:9

And now Alma began to expound these things unto him, saying:

It is given unto many to know the mysteries of God;

nevertheless they are laid under a strict command

that they shall not impart

only according to the portion of his word

which he doth grant unto the children of men,

according to the heed and diligence which they give unto him.



Alma 12:14

For our words will condemn us,

yea, all our works will condemn us;

we shall not be found spotless;

and our thoughts will also condemn us;

and in this awful state we shall not dare to look up to our God;

and we would fain be glad

if we could command the rocks and the mountains to fall upon us

to hide us from his presence.



Alma 12:35

And whosoever will harden his heart and will do iniquity,

behold, I swear in my wrath that he shall not enter into my rest.



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.
