Alma 23:6

And as sure as the Lord liveth,

so sure as many as believed,

or as many as were brought to the knowledge of the truth,

through the preaching of Ammon and his brethren,

according to the spirit of revelation and of prophecy,

and the power of God working miracles in them —

yea, I say unto you, as the Lord liveth,

as many of the Lamanites as believed in their preaching,

and were converted unto the Lord,

never did fall away.



Alma 25:5

And the remainder, having fled into the east wilderness,

and having usurped the power and authority over the Lamanites,

caused that many of the Lamanites should perish by fire because of their belief —



Alma 25:6

For many of them, after having suffered much loss and so many afflictions,

began to be stirred up in remembrance of the words

which Aaron and his brethren had preached to them in their land;

therefore they began to disbelieve the traditions of their fathers,

and to believe in the Lord,

and that he gave great power unto the Nephites;

and thus there were many of them converted in the wilderness.



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?



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 26:29

And we have entered into their houses and taught them,

and we have taught them in their streets;

yea, and we have taught them upon their hills;

and we have also entered into their temples and their synagogues and taught them;

and we have been cast out, and mocked, and spit upon, and smote upon our cheeks;

and we have been stoned,

and taken and bound with strong cords, and cast into prison;

and through the power and wisdom of God we have been delivered again.



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.
