Alma 39:7

And now, my son, I would to God that ye had not been guilty of so great a crime.

I would not dwell upon your crimes, to harrow up your soul,

if it were not for your good.

And now remember, my son,

if it were not for the plan of redemption, (laying it aside)

as soon as they were dead

their souls were miserable,

being cut off from the presence of the Lord.
