Alma 24:12

Now, my best beloved brethren,

since God hath taken away our stains, and our swords have become bright,

then let us stain our swords no more with the blood of our brethren.

Alma 24:13

Behold, I say unto you,

Nay, let us retain our swords that they be not stained with the blood of our brethren;

for perhaps, if we should stain our swords again

they can no more be washed bright through the blood of the Son of our great God,

which shall be shed for the atonement of our sins.

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 26:8

Blessed be the name of our God;

let us sing to his praise,

yea, let us give thanks to his holy name,

for he doth work righteousness forever.

Alma 26:16

Therefore, let us glory,

yea, we will glory in the Lord;

yea, we will rejoice, for our joy is full;

yea, we will praise our God forever.

Behold, who can glory too much in the Lord?

Yea, who can say too much of his great power, and of his mercy,

and of his long-suffering towards the children of men?

Behold, I say unto you,

I cannot say the smallest part which I feel.

Alma 26:19

Oh then, why did he not consign us to an awful destruction,

yea, why did he not let the sword of his justice fall upon us,

and doom us to eternal despair?

Alma 26:25

And moreover they did say:

let us take up arms against them,

that we destroy them and their iniquity out of the land,

lest they overrun us and destroy us.
