Alma 27:3

Now this people again refused to take their arms,

and they suffered themselves to be slain according to the desires of their enemies.

Alma 27:23

And behold, we will set our armies between the land Jershon and the land Nephi,

that we may protect our brethren in the land Jershon;

and this we do for our brethren,

on account of their fear to take up arms against their brethren

lest they should commit sin;

and this their great fear came because of their sore repentance

which they had, on account of their many murders and their awful wickedness.

Alma 27:28

And they did look upon shedding the blood of their brethren

with the greatest abhorrence;

and they never could be prevailed upon to take up arms against their brethren;

and they never did look upon death with any degree of terror,

for their hope and views of Christ and the resurrection;

therefore, death was swallowed up to them by the victory of Christ over it.
