2 Nephi 1:1

And now it came to pass

that after I, Nephi, had made an end of teaching my brethren,

our father, Lehi, also spake many things unto them,

and rehearsed unto them, how great things the Lord had done for them

in bringing them out of the land of Jerusalem.

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 2:11

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.
