Alma 45:23

And now it came to pass that after Helaman and his brethren

had appointed priests and teachers over the churches

that there arose a dissension among them,

and they would not give heed to the words of Helaman and his brethren;

Alma 46:30

Now Moroni thought it was not expedient

that the Lamanites should have any more strength;

therefore he thought to cut off the people of Amalickiah,

or to take them and bring them back,

and put Amalickiah to death;

yea, for he knew that he would stir up the Lamanites to anger against them,

and cause them to come to battle against them;

and this he knew that Amalickiah would do

that he might obtain his purposes.

Alma 47:34

And it came to pass that

Amalickiah took the same servant that slew the king,

and all them who were with him,

and went in unto the queen, unto the place where she sat;

and they all testified unto her that the king was slain by his own servants;

and they said also:

They have fled;

does not this testify against them?

And thus they satisfied the queen concerning the death of the king.

Alma 48:16

And also, that God would make it known unto them

whither they should go to defend themselves against their enemies,

and by so doing, the Lord would deliver them;

and this was the faith of Moroni,

and his heart did glory in it;

not in the shedding of blood

but in doing good, in preserving his people,

yea, in keeping the commandments of God,

yea, and resisting iniquity.

Alma 48:24

Nevertheless, they could not suffer to lay down their lives,

that their wives and their children should be massacred

by the barbarous cruelty of those who were once their brethren,

yea, and had dissented from their church,

and had left them and had gone to destroy them by joining the Lamanites.

Alma 49:22

Now when they found

that they could not obtain power over the Nephites by the pass,

they began to dig down their banks of earth

that they might obtain a pass to their armies,

that they might have an equal chance to fight;

but behold, in these attempts they were swept off

by the stones and arrows which were thrown at them;

and instead of filling up their ditches by pulling down the banks of earth,

they were filled up in a measure with their dead and wounded bodies.

Alma 49:30

Yea, and there was continual peace among them,

and exceedingly great prosperity in the church

because of their heed and diligence which they gave unto the word of God,

which was declared unto them

by Helaman, and Shiblon, and Corianton, and Ammon and his brethren,

yea, and by all those who had been ordained by the holy order of God,

being baptized unto repentance,

and sent forth to preach among the people.
