Alma 12:4

And thou seest that we know that thy plan was a very subtle plan,

as to the subtlety of the devil, for to lie and to deceive this people

that thou mightest set them against us,

to revile us and to cast us out —



Alma 12:5

Now this was a plan of thine adversary,

and he hath exercised his power in thee.

Now I would that ye should remember

that what I say unto thee I say unto all.



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 12:20

But there was one Antionah, who was a chief ruler among them,

came forth and said unto him:

What is this that thou hast said,

that man should rise from the dead

and be changed from this mortal to an immortal state

that the soul can never die?



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 12:25

Now, if it had not been for the plan of redemption,

which was laid from the foundation of the world,

there could have been no resurrection of the dead;

but there was a plan of redemption laid,

which shall bring to pass the resurrection of the dead,

of which has been spoken.
