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.

And behold, I thank my great God

that he has given us a portion of his Spirit to soften our hearts,

that we have opened a correspondence with these brethren, the Nephites.



Alma 24:11

And now behold, my brethren,

since it has been all that we could do,

(as we were the most lost of all mankind)

to repent of all our sins and the many murders which we have committed,

and to get God to take them away from our hearts,

for it was all we could do to repent sufficiently before God

that he would take away our stain —



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.

And now, I ask,

what great blessings has he bestowed upon us?

Can ye tell?



Alma 26:13

Behold, how many thousands of our brethren has he loosed from the pains of hell;

and they are brought to sing redeeming love,

and this because of the power of his word which is in us,

therefore have we not great reason to rejoice?

Yea, we have reason to praise him forever,

for he is the Most High God,

and has loosed our brethren from the chains of hell.



Alma 26:15

Yea, they were encircled about with everlasting darkness and destruction;

but behold, he has brought them into his everlasting light,

yea, into everlasting salvation;

and they are encircled about with the matchless bounty of his love;

yea, and we have been instruments in his hands

of doing this great and marvelous work.



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.

has there been so great love in all the land?

there has not, even among the Nephites.



Alma 26:35

Now have we not reason to rejoice?

Yea, I say unto you,

there never were men that had so great reason to rejoice as we,

since the world began;

yea, and my joy is carried away, even unto boasting in my God;

for he has all power, all wisdom, and all understanding;

he comprehendeth all things, and he is a merciful Being,

even unto salvation, to those who will repent and believe on his name.



Alma 26:36

Now if this is boasting, even so will I boast;

for this is my life and my light,

my joy and my salvation, and my redemption from everlasting wo.

Yea, blessed is the name of my God,

who has been mindful of this people,

who are a branch of the tree of Israel,

and has been lost from its body in a strange land;

yea, I say,

blessed be the name of my God,

who has been mindful of us,

wanderers in a strange land.
