Thou shouldst have tended to the ministry wherewith thou wast entrusted.

Alma 39:9

Now my son, I would that ye should repent and forsake your sins,

and go no more after the lusts of your eyes,

but cross yourself in all these things;

for except ye do this ye can in nowise inherit the kingdom of God.

Oh, remember, and take it upon you,

and cross yourself in these things.

and that wrong which ye have done.

Alma 40:2

Behold, I say unto you, that there is no resurrection —

until after the coming of Christ.

Behold, he bringeth to pass the resurrection of the dead.

But behold, my son, the resurrection is not yet.

Now, I unfold unto you a mystery;

which I have inquired diligently of God that I might know —

that is concerning the resurrection.

Alma 40:13

And then shall it come to pass, that

the spirits of the wicked, yea, who are evil —

for behold, they have no part nor portion of the Spirit of the Lord;

for behold, they chose evil works rather than good;

therefore the spirit of the devil did enter into them,

and take possession of their house —

and these shall be cast out into outer darkness;

there shall be weeping, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth,

and this because of their own iniquity,

being led captive by the will of the devil.

Alma 40:26

But behold, an awful death cometh upon the wicked;

for they die as to things pertaining to things of righteousness;

for they are unclean,

and no unclean thing can inherit the kingdom of God;

but they are cast out, and consigned to partake of the fruits of their labors

or their works, which have been evil;

and they drink the dregs of a bitter cup.

Alma 42:5

For behold, if Adam had put forth his hand immediately,

and partaken of the tree of life,

he would have lived forever, according to the word of God,

having no space for repentance;

yea, and also the word of God would have been void,

and the great plan of salvation would have been frustrated.

what could justice do, or mercy either,

for they would have no claim upon the creature?

and only let your sins trouble you, with that trouble

which shall bring you down unto repentance.

O my son, I desire that ye should deny the justice of God no more.

Do not endeavor to excuse yourself in the least point because of your sins,

by denying the justice of God;

but do you let the justice of God, and his mercy,

and his long-suffering have full sway in your heart;

and let it bring you down to the dust in humility.
