2 Nephi 2:3, 21, 26

2 Nephi 1:10

But behold, when the time cometh

that they shall dwindle in unbelief,

after they have received so great blessings from the hand of the Lord —

having a knowledge of the creation of the earth, and all men,

knowing the great and marvelous works of the Lord

from the creation of the world;

having power given them to do all things by faith;

having all the commandments from the beginning,

and having been brought by his infinite goodness

into this precious land of promise —

behold, I say, if the day shall come

that they will reject the Holy One of Israel,

the true Messiah, their Redeemer and their God,

behold, the judgments of him that is just shall rest upon them.

2 Nephi 1:17

My heart hath been weighed down with sorrow from time to time,

for I have feared, lest for the hardness of your hearts

the Lord your God should come out

in the fulness of his wrath upon you,

that ye be cut off and destroyed forever;

2 Nephi 1:24

Rebel no more against your brother,

whose views have been glorious,

and who hath kept the commandments from the time that we left Jerusalem;

and who hath been an instrument in the hands of God,

in bringing us forth into the land of promise;

for were it not for him, we must have perished with hunger in the wilderness;

nevertheless, ye sought to take away his life;

yea, and he hath suffered much sorrow because of you.

2 Nephi 2:3

Wherefore, thy soul shall be blessed,

and thou shalt dwell safely with thy brother, Nephi;

and thy days shall be spent in the service of thy God.

Wherefore, I know that thou art redeemed,

because of the righteousness of thy Redeemer;

for thou hast beheld that in the fulness of time

he cometh to bring salvation unto men.

2 Nephi 2:21

And the days of the children of men were prolonged,

according to the will of God,

that they might repent while in the flesh;

wherefore, their state became a state of probation,

and their time was lengthened, according to the commandments

which the Lord God gave unto the children of men.

For he gave commandment that all men must repent;

for he showed unto all men that they were lost,

because of the transgression of their parents.

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.
