2 Nephi 1:9

Wherefore, I, Lehi, have obtained a promise, that

inasmuch as those whom the Lord God shall bring out of the land of Jerusalem

shall keep his commandments,

they shall prosper upon the face of this land;

and they shall be kept from all other nations,

that they may possess this land unto themselves.

And if it so be that they shall keep his commandments

they shall be blessed upon the face of this land,

and there shall be none to molest them,

nor to take away the land of their inheritance;

and they shall dwell safely forever.

inasmuch as he shall make intercession for all the children of men;

and they that believe in him shall be saved.

2 Nephi 2:20

and they have brought forth children;

yea, even the family of all the earth.

2 Nephi 2:22

And now, behold, if Adam had not transgressed

he would not have fallen,

but he would have remained in the garden of Eden.

And all things which were created must have remained

in the same state in which they were

after they were created;

and they must have remained forever, and had no end.

2 Nephi 2:23

and they would have had no children;

wherefore they would have remained in a state of innocence,

having no joy, for they knew no misery;

doing no good, for they knew no sin.

2 Nephi 2:27

Wherefore, men are free according to the flesh;

and all things are given them which are expedient unto man.

and they are free to choose liberty and eternal life,

through the great Mediator of all men,

or to choose captivity and death,

according to the captivity and power of the devil;

for he seeketh that all men might be miserable like unto himself.
