Helaman 3:29

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

across that everlasting gulf of misery

which is prepared to engulf the wicked—

which desire is, that ye may not do these things that ye may boast,

yea, that ye may have that precious gift of eternal life,

which we have reason to suppose hath been given to our fathers.
