Alma 46:13,

Alma 48:25

Alma 46:13

And he fastened on his head-plate, and his breastplate, and his shields,

and girded on his armor about his loins;

and he took the pole, which had on the end thereof his rent coat,

(and he called it the title of liberty)

and he bowed himself to the earth,

and he prayed mightily unto his God

for the blessings of liberty to rest upon his brethren,

so long as there should a band of Christians remain to possess the land —

Alma 47:36

Now these dissenters,

having the same instruction and the same information of the Nephites,

yea, having been instructed in the same knowledge of the Lord,

nevertheless, it is strange to relate,

not long after their dissensions

they became more hardened and impenitent,

and more wild, wicked and ferocious than the Lamanites —

drinking in with the traditions of the Lamanites;

giving way to indolence, and all manner of lasciviousness;

yea, entirely forgetting the Lord their God.

Alma 48:25

Yea, they could not bear

that their brethren should rejoice over the blood of the Nephites,

so long as there were any who should keep the commandments of God,

for the promise of the Lord was,

if they should keep his commandments

they should prosper in the land.
