Helaman 3:29

Yea, we see that whosoever will may lay hold upon the word of God,

which is quick and powerful,

which shall divide asunder

all the cunning and the snares and the wiles of the devil,

and lead the man of Christ in a strait and narrow course

across that everlasting gulf of misery

which is prepared to engulf the wicked—



Helaman 5:44

And Nephi and Lehi were in the midst of them;

yea, they were encircled about;

yea, they were as if in the midst of a flaming fire,

yet it did harm them not,

neither did it take hold upon the walls of the prison;

and they were filled with that joy which is unspeakable and full of glory.



Helaman 6:30

And behold, it is he who is the author of all sin.

And behold, he doth carry on his works of darkness and secret murder,

and doth hand down their plots, and their oaths,

and their covenants, and their plans of awful wickedness,

from generation to generation

according as he can get hold upon the hearts of the children of men.



Helaman 6:31

And now behold, he had got great hold upon the hearts of the Nephites;

yea, insomuch that they had become exceedingly wicked;

yea, the more part of them had turned out of the way of righteousness,

and did trample under their feet the commandments of God,

and did turn unto their own ways,

and did build up unto themselves idols of their gold and their silver.
