Alma 30:7

Now there was no law against a man's belief;

for it was strictly contrary to the commands of God

that there should be a law which should bring men on to unequal grounds.



Alma 30:11

For there was a law that men should be judged according to their crimes.

Nevertheless, there was no law against a man's belief;

therefore, a man was punished only for the crimes which he had done;

therefore all men were on equal grounds.



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 31:17

But thou art the same yesterday, today, and forever;

and thou hast elected us that we shall be saved,

whilst all around us are elected to be cast by thy wrath down to hell;

for the which holiness, O God, we thank thee;

and we also thank thee that thou hast elected us,

that we may not be led away after the foolish traditions of our brethren,

which doth bind them down to a belief of Christ,

which doth lead their hearts to wander far from thee, our God.
