Alma 37:41, 43, 46

Alma 37:41

Nevertheless, because those miracles were worked by small means

it did show unto them marvelous works.

They were slothful, and forgot to exercise their faith and diligence

and then those marvelous works ceased,

and they did not progress in their journey;

Alma 37:43

And now, my son, I would that ye should understand

that these things are not without a shadow;

for as our fathers were slothful to give heed to this compass

(now these things were temporal)

they did not prosper;

even so it is with things which are spiritual.

Alma 37:46

O my son, do not let us be slothful because of the easiness of the way;

for so was it with our fathers;

for so was it prepared for them,

that if they would look they might live;

even so it is with us.

The way is prepared,

and if we will look we may live forever.
