Alma 30:27

And thus ye lead away this people after the foolish traditions of your fathers,

Believest thou that these things are true?

Behold, I know that thou believest,

but thou art possessed with a lying spirit,

and ye have put off the Spirit of God that it may have no place in you;

working devices that he may destroy the children of God.



Alma 32:34

And now, behold, is your knowledge perfect?

Yea, your knowledge is perfect in that thing, and your faith is dormant;

and this because you know,

and ye also know that it hath sprouted up,

that your understanding doth begin to be enlightened,

and your mind doth begin to expand.

because it hath no root it withers away,

and ye pluck it up and cast it out.



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 32:42

And because of your diligence and your faith and your patience with the word

in nourishing it, that it may take root in you,

behold, by and by ye shall pluck the fruit thereof, which is most precious,

which is sweet above all that is sweet,

and which is white above all that is white,

yea, and pure above all that is pure;

and ye shall feast upon this fruit even until ye are filled,

that ye hunger not, neither shall ye thirst.



Alma 33:2

And Alma said unto them:

Behold, ye have said that ye could not worship your God

because ye are cast out of your synagogues.

But behold, I say unto you,

if ye suppose that ye cannot worship God, ye do greatly err,

and ye ought to search the scriptures;

if ye suppose that they have taught you this,

ye do not understand them.



Alma 34:6

and ye also beheld that my brother has proved unto you, in many instances,

that the word is in Christ unto salvation.



Alma 34:28

And now behold, my beloved brethren, I say unto you,

do not suppose that this is all;

for after ye have done all these things,

if ye turn away the needy, and the naked,

and visit not the sick and afflicted,

and impart of your substance, if ye have,

to those who stand in need —

I say unto you,

if ye do not any of these things,

behold, your prayer is vain, and availeth you nothing,

and ye are as hypocrites who do deny the faith.
