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, 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.

Alma 40:19

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

shall all be reunited at once,

the wicked as well as the righteous,

I do not say;

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

concerning the restoration of which has been spoken;

for behold, some have wrested the scriptures,

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.

Alma 41:10

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.
