Alma 30:16

Ye look forward and say that ye see a remission of your sins.

But behold, it is the effect of a frenzied mind;

and this derangement of your minds comes because of the traditions of your fathers,

which lead you away into a belief of things which are not so.



Alma 30:47

But behold, it is better that thy soul should be lost

than that thou shouldst be the means of bringing many souls down to destruction,

by thy lying and by thy flattering words;

therefore if thou shalt deny again,

behold God shall smite thee, that thou shalt become dumb,

that thou shalt never open thy mouth any more,

that thou shalt not deceive this people any more.



Alma 32:12

I say unto you,

it is well that ye are cast out of your synagogues,

that ye may be humble, and that ye may learn wisdom;

for it is necessary that ye should learn wisdom;

for it is because that ye are cast out,

that ye are despised of your brethren because of your exceeding poverty,

that ye are brought to a lowliness of heart;

for ye are necessarily brought to be humble.



Alma 32:20

Behold, I say unto you, that it is on the one hand even as it is on the other;

and it shall be unto every man according to his work.

any more than faith is a perfect knowledge.

Therefore, if a seed groweth it is good,

but if it groweth not, behold it is not good,

therefore it is cast away.



Alma 32:35

O then, is not this real?

I say unto you,

Yea, because it is light;

and whatsoever is light, is good, because it is discernible,

therefore ye must know that it is good;

and now behold, after ye have tasted this light is your knowledge perfect?



Alma 32:39

Now, this is not because the seed was not good,

neither is it because the fruit thereof would not be desirable;

but it is because your ground is barren, and ye will not nourish the tree,

therefore ye cannot have the fruit thereof.



Alma 33:11

And thou didst hear me because of mine afflictions and my sincerity;

and it is because of thy Son that thou hast been thus merciful unto me,

therefore I will cry unto thee in all mine afflictions,

for in thee is my joy;

for thou hast turned thy judgments away from me, because of thy Son.



Alma 33:15

For it is not written that Zenos alone spake of these things,

but Zenock also spake of these things —



Alma 34:2

My brethren, I think that it is impossible

that ye should be ignorant of the things

which have been spoken concerning the coming of Christ,

who is taught by us to be the Son of God;

yea, I know that these things were taught unto you bountifully

before your dissension from among us.



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.



Alma 34:10

For it is expedient that there should be a great and last sacrifice;

yea, not a sacrifice of man,

neither of beast, neither of any manner of fowl;

for it shall not be a human sacrifice;

but it must be an infinite and eternal sacrifice.



Alma 34:13

Therefore, it is expedient that there should be a great and last sacrifice,

and then shall there be, or it is expedient there should be,

a stop to the shedding of blood;

then shall the law of Moses be fulfilled;

yea, it shall be all fulfilled, every jot and tittle,

and none shall have passed away.
