2 Nephi 2:8

Wherefore, how great the importance

to make these things known unto the inhabitants of the earth,

that they may know that there is no flesh

that can dwell in the presence of God,

save it be through the merits, and mercy, and grace of the Holy Messiah,

who layeth down his life according to the flesh,

and taketh it again by the power of the Spirit,

that he may bring to pass the resurrection of the dead,

being the first that should rise.



2 Nephi 2:26

And the Messiah cometh in the fulness of time,

that he may redeem the children of men from the fall.

And because that they are redeemed from the fall

they have become free forever,

knowing good from evil;

to act for themselves and not to be acted upon,

save it be by the punishment of the law at the great and last day,

according to the commandments which God hath given.



2 Nephi 2:29

And not choose eternal death, according to the will of the flesh

and the evil which is therein,

which giveth the spirit of the devil power to captivate,

to bring you down to hell,

that he may reign over you in his own kingdom.
