Mormon Comments on the Fulfillment of Prophecy
3 Nephi 10:11 - 3 Nephi 10:19
Duration: 2:14
3 Nephi 10:11
And thus far were the scriptures fulfilled
which had been spoken by the prophets.
3 Nephi 10:12
And it was the more righteous part of the people who were saved,
and it was they who received the prophets and stoned them not;
and it was they who had not shed the blood of the saints, who were spared —
3 Nephi 10:13
And they were spared and were not sunk and buried up in the earth;
and they were not drowned in the depths of the sea;
and they were not burned by fire,
neither were they fallen upon and crushed to death;
and they were not carried away in the whirlwind;
neither were they overpowered by the vapor of smoke and of darkness.
3 Nephi 10:14
And now, whoso readeth, let him understand;
he that hath the scriptures, let him search them,
and see and behold if all these deaths and destructions
by fire, and by smoke, and by tempests, and by whirlwinds,
and by the opening of the earth to receive them,
and all these things are not unto the fulfilling
of the prophecies of many of the holy prophets.
3 Nephi 10:15
Behold, I say unto you,
Yea, many have testified of these things at the coming of Christ,
and were slain because they testified of these things.
3 Nephi 10:16
Yea, the prophet Zenos did testify of these things,
and also Zenock spake concerning these things,
because they testified particularly concerning us,
who are the remnant of their seed.
3 Nephi 10:17
Behold, our father Jacob also testified concerning a remnant of the seed of Joseph.
And behold, are not we a remnant of the seed of Joseph?
And these things which testify of us,
are they not written upon the plates of brass
which our father Lehi brought out of Jerusalem?
3 Nephi 10:18
And it came to pass that in the ending of the thirty and fourth year,
behold, I will show unto you that the people of Nephi who were spared,
and also those who had been called Lamanites, who had been spared,
did have great favors shown unto them,
and great blessings poured out upon their heads,
insomuch that soon after the ascension of Christ into heaven
he did truly manifest himself unto them —
3 Nephi 10:19
Showing his body unto them, and ministering unto them;
and an account of his ministry shall be given hereafter.
Therefore for this time I make an end of my sayings.
