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 30:39

Now Alma said unto him:

Will ye deny again that there is a God, and also deny the Christ?

For behold, I say unto you,

I know there is a God, and also that Christ shall come.



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 30:41

But, behold, I have all things as a testimony that these things are true;

and ye also have all things as a testimony unto you that they are true;

and will ye deny them?

Believest thou that these things are true?



Alma 30:42

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;

but the devil has power over you,

and he doth carry you about,

working devices that he may destroy the children of God.



Alma 30:51

And now when the chief judge saw this,

he put forth his hand and wrote unto Korihor, saying:

Art thou convinced of the power of God?

In whom did ye desire that Alma should show forth his sign?

Would ye that he should afflict others, to show unto thee a sign?

Behold, he has showed unto you a sign;

and now will ye dispute more?



Alma 32:10

Behold I say unto you,

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



Alma 32:12

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 32:14

And now, as I said unto you,

that because ye were compelled to be humble ye were blessed,

do ye not suppose that they are more blessed

who truly humble themselves because of the word?



Alma 32:18

Now I ask,

is this faith?

Behold, I say unto you, Nay;

for if a man knoweth a thing he hath no cause to believe,

for he knoweth it.



Alma 32:20

Now of this thing ye must judge.

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.



Alma 32:22

And now, behold, I say unto you, and I would that ye should remember,

that God is merciful unto all who believe on his name;

therefore he desireth, in the first place,

that ye should believe, yea, even on his word.



Alma 32:24

And now, my beloved brethren, as ye have desired to know of me

what ye shall do because ye are afflicted and cast out —

now I do not desire that ye should suppose that I mean to judge you

only according to that which is true —



Alma 32:25

For I do not mean that ye all of you have been compelled to humble yourselves;

for I verily believe that there are some among you who would humble themselves,

let them be in whatsoever circumstances they might.



Alma 32:27

But behold, if ye will awake and arouse your faculties,

even to an experiment upon my words,

and exercise a particle of faith,

yea, even if ye can no more than desire to believe,

let this desire work in you, even until ye believe in a manner

that ye can give place for a portion of my words.



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 32:29

Now behold, would not this increase your faith?

I say unto you, Yea;

nevertheless it hath not grown up to a perfect knowledge.



Alma 32:30

But behold, as the seed swelleth, and sprouteth, and beginneth to grow,

then you must needs say that the seed is good;

for behold it swelleth, and sprouteth, and beginneth to grow.

And now, behold, will not this strengthen your faith?

Yea, it will strengthen your faith:

for ye will say

I know that this is a good seed;

for behold it sprouteth and beginneth to grow.



Alma 32:31

And now, behold, are ye sure that this is a good seed?

I say unto you, Yea;

for every seed bringeth forth unto its own likeness.



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,

for ye know that the word hath swelled your souls,

and ye also know that it hath sprouted up,

that your understanding doth begin to be enlightened,

and your mind doth begin to expand.



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 32:36

Behold I say unto you, Nay;

neither must ye lay aside your faith,

for ye have only exercised your faith to plant the seed

that ye might try the experiment to know if the seed was good.



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 32:43

Then, my brethren, ye shall reap the rewards of your faith,

and your diligence, and patience, and long-suffering,

waiting for the tree to bring forth fruit unto you.



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 33:22

If so, wo shall come upon you;

but if not so, then cast about your eyes

and begin to believe in the Son of God,

that he will come to redeem his people,

and that he shall suffer and die to atone for their sins;

and that he shall rise again from the dead,

which shall bring to pass the resurrection,

that all men shall stand before him,

to be judged at the last and judgment day, according to their works.



Alma 33:23

And now, my brethren, I desire that ye shall plant this word in your hearts,

and as it beginneth to swell even so nourish it by your faith.

And behold, it will become a tree, springing up in you unto everlasting life.

And then may God grant unto you

that your burdens may be light, through the joy of his Son.

And even all this can ye do if ye will.

Amen.



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 34:3

And as ye have desired of my beloved brother

that he should make known unto you

what ye should do, because of your afflictions;

and he hath spoken somewhat unto you to prepare your minds;

yea, and he hath exhorted you unto faith and to patience —



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 34:8

And now, behold, I will testify unto you of myself that these things are true.

Behold, I say unto you, that I do know

that Christ shall come among the children of men,

to take upon him the transgressions of his people,

and that he shall atone for the sins of the world;

for the Lord God hath spoken it.



Alma 34:11

Now there is not any man that can sacrifice his own blood

which will atone for the sins of another.

Now, if a man murdereth,

behold will our law, which is just, take the life of his brother?

I say unto you, Nay.



Alma 34:17

Therefore may God grant unto you, my brethren,

that ye may begin to exercise your faith unto repentance,

that ye begin to call upon his holy name,

that he would have mercy upon you;



Alma 34:27

Yea, and when you do not cry unto the Lord,

let your hearts be full, drawn out in prayer unto him continually for your welfare,

and also for the welfare of those who are around you.



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.



Alma 34:31

Yea, I would that ye would come forth and harden not your hearts any longer;

for behold, now is the time and the day of your salvation;

and therefore, if ye will repent and harden not your hearts,

immediately shall the great plan of redemption be brought about unto you.



Alma 34:33

And now, as I said unto you before,

as ye have had so many witnesses,

therefore, I beseech of you

that ye do not procrastinate the day of your repentance until the end;

for after this day of life, which is given us to prepare for eternity,

behold, if we do not improve our time while in this life,

then cometh the night of darkness wherein there can be no labor performed.



Alma 34:35

For behold, if ye have procrastinated the day of your repentance even until death,

behold, ye have become subjected to the spirit of the devil,

and he doth seal you his;

therefore, the Spirit of the Lord hath withdrawn from you, and hath no place in you,

and the devil hath all power over you;

and this is the final state of the wicked.



Alma 34:38

That ye contend no more against the Holy Ghost,

but that ye receive it, and take upon you the name of Christ;

that ye humble yourselves even to the dust,

and worship God, in whatsoever place ye may be in,

in spirit and in truth;

and that ye live in thanksgiving daily,

for the many mercies and blessings which he doth bestow upon you.



Alma 34:39

Yea, and I also exhort you, my brethren,

that ye be watchful unto prayer continually,

that ye may not be led away by the temptations of the devil,

that he may not overpower you,

that ye may not become his subjects at the last day;

for behold, he rewardeth you no good thing.



Alma 34:40

And now my beloved brethren, I would exhort you to have patience,

and that ye bear with all manner of afflictions;

that ye do not revile against those

who do cast you out because of your exceeding poverty,

lest ye become sinners like unto them;
