Alma 17:15

Thus they were a very indolent people,

many of whom did worship idols,

and the curse of God had fallen upon them because of the traditions of their fathers;

notwithstanding the promises of the Lord were extended unto them

on the conditions of repentance.

Alma 19:27

And there were some who said

that Ammon was sent by the Great Spirit to afflict them because of their iniquities;

and that it was the Great Spirit that had always attended the Nephites,

who had ever delivered them out of their hands;

and they said that it was this Great Spirit

who had destroyed so many of their brethren, the Lamanites.
