Alma 21:6

Thou also sayest,

except we repent we shall perish.

How knowest thou the thought and intent of our hearts?

How knowest thou that we have cause to repent?

How knowest thou that we are not a righteous people?

Behold, we have built sanctuaries,

and we do assemble ourselves together to worship God.

We do believe that God will save all men.

even to the house of the king which was over all the land

save it were the land of Ishmael;

and he was the father of Lamoni.

And now, O king, if thou wilt spare our lives, we will be thy servants.

Arise, for I will grant unto you your lives,

and I will not suffer that ye shall be my servants;

but I will insist that ye shall administer unto me;

for I have been somewhat troubled in mind

because of the generosity and the greatness of the words of thy brother Ammon;

and I desire to know the cause why he has not come up out of Middoni with thee.

Believest thou that there is a God?

that they may assemble themselves together to worship him.

And if now thou sayest there is a God,

behold I will believe.

Yea, I believe that the Great Spirit created all things,

And it came to pass that

after Aaron had expounded these things unto him,

the king said:

What shall I do that I may have this eternal life of which thou hast spoken?

Yea, what shall I do that I may be born of God,

having this wicked spirit rooted out of my breast,

and receive his Spirit, that I may be filled with joy,

that I may not be cast off at the last day?

Behold, said he, I will give up all that I possess,

yea, I will forsake my kingdom, that I may receive this great joy.

Alma 22:16

But Aaron said unto him:

If thou desirest this thing,

if thou wilt bow down before God,

yea, if thou wilt repent of all thy sins,

and will bow down before God, and call on his name in faith,

believing that ye shall receive,

then shalt thou receive the hope which thou desirest.

Alma 22:18

O God, Aaron hath told me that there is a God;

and if there is a God, and if thou art God,

wilt thou make thyself known unto me,

and I will give away all my sins to know thee,

and that I may be raised from the dead, and be saved at the last day.

And now when the king had said these words,

he was struck as if he were dead.
