Alma 45:19

Behold, this we know, that he was a righteous man;

and the saying went abroad in the church

that he was taken up by the Spirit,

or buried by the hand of the Lord, even as Moses.

But behold, the scriptures saith the Lord took Moses unto himself;

and we suppose that he has also received Alma in the spirit, unto himself;

therefore, for this cause we know nothing concerning his death and burial.

Alma 46:7

And there were many in the church

who believed in the flattering words of Amalickiah,

therefore they dissented even from the church;

and thus were the affairs of the people of Nephi

exceedingly precarious and dangerous,

notwithstanding their great victory which they had had over the Lamanites,

and their great rejoicings which they had had

because of their deliverance by the hand of the Lord.

Alma 46:38

And Helaman and the high priests did also maintain order in the church;

yea, even for the space of four years

did they have much peace and rejoicing in the church.

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.
