Alma 30:40

And now what evidence have ye that there is no God, or that Christ cometh not?

I say unto you that ye have none, save it be your word only.

Alma 32:10

Behold I say unto you,

do ye suppose that ye cannot worship God save it be in your synagogues only?

Alma 32:28

Now, we will compare the word unto a seed.

Now, if ye give place, that a seed may be planted in your heart,

behold, if it be a true seed, or a good seed,

if ye do not cast it out by your unbelief,

that ye will resist the Spirit of the Lord,

behold, it will begin to swell within your breasts;

and when you feel these swelling motions,

ye will begin to say within yourselves —

It must needs be that this is a good seed, or that the word is good,

for it beginneth to enlarge my soul;

yea, it beginneth to enlighten my understanding,

yea, it beginneth to be delicious to me.

Alma 34:9

For it is expedient that an atonement should be made;

for according to the great plan of the Eternal God

there must be an atonement made, or else all mankind must unavoidably perish;

yea, all are hardened;

yea, all are fallen and are lost, and must perish

except it be through the atonement which it is expedient should be made.
