Alma 12:16

And now behold, I say unto you

then cometh a death, even a second death, which is a spiritual death;

then is a time that whosoever dieth in his sins, as to a temporal death,

shall also die a spiritual death;

yea, he shall die as to things pertaining unto righteousness.



Alma 12:31

Wherefore, he gave commandments unto men,

they having first transgressed the first commandments

as to things which were temporal,

and becoming as Gods,

knowing good from evil,

placing themselves in a state to act,

or being placed in a state to act according to their wills and pleasures,

whether to do evil or to do good —



Alma 12:32

Therefore God gave unto them commandments,

after having made known unto them the plan of redemption,

that they should not do evil,

the penalty thereof being a second death,

which was an everlasting death as to things pertaining unto righteousness;

for on such the plan of redemption could have no power,

for the works of justice could not be destroyed,

according to the supreme goodness of God.
