Alma 39:1

And now, my son, I have somewhat more to say unto thee

than what I said unto thy brother;

for behold, have ye not observed the steadiness of thy brother,

his faithfulness, and his diligence in keeping the commandments of God?

Behold, has he not set a good example for thee?

Alma 39:2

For thou didst not give so much heed unto my words

as did thy brother, among the people of the Zoramites.

Now this is what I have against thee;

thou didst go on unto boasting in thy strength and thy wisdom.

Alma 40:7

And now I would inquire what becometh of the souls of men

from this time of death to the time appointed for the resurrection?

Alma 40:9

Therefore, there is a time appointed unto men that they shall rise from the dead;

and there is a space between the time of death and the resurrection.

And now, concerning this space of time,

what becometh of the souls of men is the thing

which I have inquired diligently of the Lord to know;

and this is the thing of which I do know.

Alma 40:17

Now, we do not suppose

that this first resurrection, which is spoken of in this manner,

can be the resurrection of the souls

and their consignation to happiness or misery.

Ye cannot suppose that this is what it meaneth.

Alma 42:21

And if there was no law given, if men sinned

what could justice do, or mercy either,

for they would have no claim upon the creature?

Alma 42:25

what, do ye suppose that mercy can rob justice?

I say unto you,

Nay; not one whit.

If so, God would cease to be God.
