Alma 37:14

And now remember, my son,

that God has entrusted you with these things, which are sacred,

which he has kept sacred,

and also which he will keep and preserve for a wise purpose in him,

that he may show forth his power unto future generations.

Alma 37:15

And now behold, I tell you by the spirit of prophecy,

that if ye transgress the commandments of God,

behold, these things which are sacred

shall be taken away from you by the power of God,

and ye shall be delivered up unto Satan,

that he may sift you as chaff before the wind.

Alma 37:16

But if ye keep the commandments of God,

and do with these things which are sacred

according to that which the Lord doth command you,

(for you must appeal unto the Lord

for all things whatsoever ye must do with them)

behold, no power of earth or hell can take them from you,

for God is powerful to the fulfilling of all his words.

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.
