Alma 40:15

Now, there are some that have understood

that this state of happiness

and this state of misery of the soul, before the resurrection,

was a first resurrection.

the raising of the spirit or the soul and their consignation to happiness or misery,

according to the words which have been spoken.

from the dead.

Now, whether the souls and the bodies of those of whom has been spoken

shall all be reunited at once,

let it suffice, that I say that they all come forth;

or in other words, their resurrection cometh to pass

before the resurrection of those who die after the resurrection of Christ.

And now, my son, I have somewhat to say

and have gone far astray because of this thing.

And I perceive that thy mind has been worried also concerning this thing.

But behold, I will explain it unto thee.

Do not suppose, because it has been spoken concerning restoration,

that ye shall be restored from sin to happiness.

Behold, I say unto you,

wickedness never was happiness.
