2 Nephi 2:11, 15, 16

2 Nephi 1:12

Yea, as one generation passeth to another

there shall be bloodsheds, and great visitations among them;

wherefore, my sons, I would that ye would remember;

yea, I would that ye would hearken unto my words.

2 Nephi 1:21

And now that my soul might have joy in you,

and that my heart might leave this world with gladness because of you,

that I might not be brought down with grief and sorrow to the grave,

arise from the dust, my sons, and be men,

and be determined in one mind and in one heart, united in all things,

that ye may not come down into captivity;

2 Nephi 2:11

For it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things.

If not so, my firstborn in the wilderness,

righteousness could not be brought to pass,

neither wickedness, neither holiness nor misery, neither good nor bad.

Wherefore, all things must needs be a compound in one;

wherefore, if it should be one body

it must needs remain as dead,

having no life neither death, nor corruption nor incorruption,

happiness nor misery, neither sense nor insensibility.

2 Nephi 2:15

And to bring about his eternal purposes in the end of man,

after he had created our first parents,

and the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air,

and in fine, all things which are created,

it must needs be that there was an opposition;

even the forbidden fruit in opposition to the tree of life;

the one being sweet and the other bitter.

2 Nephi 2:16

Wherefore, the Lord God gave unto man that he should act for himself.

Wherefore, man could not act for himself

save it should be that he was enticed by the one or the other.
