Alma 24:7

Now, these are the words which he said unto the people concerning the matter:

I thank my God, my beloved people,

that our great God has in goodness sent these our brethren, the Nephites, unto us

to preach unto us, and to convince us of the traditions of our wicked fathers.

Alma 24:10

And I also thank my God, yea, my great God,

that he hath granted unto us that we might repent of these things,

and also that he hath forgiven us

of those our many sins and murders which we have committed,

and taken away the guilt from our hearts, through the merits of his Son.

Alma 24:14

And the great God has had mercy on us,

and made these things known unto us that we might not perish;

yea, and he has made these things known unto us beforehand,

because he loveth our souls as well as he loveth our children;

therefore, in his mercy he doth visit us by his angels,

that the plan of salvation might be made known unto us

as well as unto future generations.

Alma 24:15

Oh, how merciful is our God!

And now behold, since it has been as much as we could do

to get our stains taken away from us, and our swords are made bright,

let us hide them away that they may be kept bright,

as a testimony to our God at the last day,

or at the day that we shall be brought to stand before him to be judged,

that we have not stained our swords in the blood of our brethren

since he imparted his word unto us and has made us clean thereby.

Alma 26:1

And now, these are the words of Ammon to his brethren, which say thus:

My brothers and my brethren, behold I say unto you,

how great reason have we to rejoice;

for could we have supposed when we started from the land of Zarahemla

that God would have granted unto us such great blessings?

Alma 26:22

Yea, he that repenteth and exerciseth faith,

and bringeth forth good works, and prayeth continually without ceasing —

unto such it is given to know the mysteries of God;

yea, unto such it shall be given to reveal things which never have been revealed;

yea, and it shall be given unto such to bring thousands of souls to repentance,

even as it has been given unto us to bring these our brethren to repentance.

Alma 26:24

For they said unto us:

Do ye suppose that ye can bring the Lamanites to the knowledge of the truth?

Do ye suppose that ye can convince the Lamanites

of the incorrectness of the traditions of their fathers,

as stiffnecked a people as they are;

whose hearts delight in the shedding of blood;

whose days have been spent in the grossest iniquity;

whose ways have been the ways of a transgressor from the beginning?

Now my brethren, ye remember that this was their language.
