Moroni's Fourth Editorial Comment (continued): The Lord Promises Additional Revelations to Those Who Believe

Ether 4:6

For the Lord said unto me:

They shall not go forth unto the Gentiles

until the day that they shall repent of their iniquity,

and become clean before the Lord.

Ether 4:7

And in that day that they shall exercise faith in me, saith the Lord,

even as the brother of Jared did,

that they may become sanctified in me,

then will I manifest unto them the things which the brother of Jared saw,

even to the unfolding unto them all my revelations,

saith Jesus Christ, the Son of God,

the Father of the heavens and of the earth, and all things that in them are.

Ether 4:8

And he that will contend against the word of the Lord, let him be accursed;

and he that shall deny these things, let him be accursed;

for unto them will I show no greater things, saith Jesus Christ;

for I am he who speaketh.

Ether 4:9

And at my command the heavens are opened and are shut;

and at my word the earth shall shake;

and at my command the inhabitants thereof shall pass away,

even so as by fire.

Ether 4:10

And he that believeth not my words believeth not my disciples;

and if it so be that I do not speak, judge ye;

for ye shall know that it is I that speaketh,

at the last day.

Ether 4:11

But he that believeth these things which I have spoken,

him will I visit with the manifestations of my Spirit,

and he shall know and bear record.

For because of my Spirit he shall know that these things are true;

for it persuadeth men to do good.

Ether 4:12

And whatsoever thing persuadeth men to do good is of me;

for good cometh of none save it be of me.

I am the same that leadeth men to all good;

he that will not believe my words will not believe me — that I am;

and he that will not believe me will not believe the Father who sent me.

For behold, I am the Father,

I am the light, and the life, and the truth of the world.

Ether 4:13

Come unto me, O ye Gentiles,

and I will show unto you the greater things,

the knowledge which is hid up because of unbelief.

Ether 4:14

Come unto me, O ye house of Israel,

and it shall be made manifest unto you

how great things the Father hath laid up for you,

from the foundation of the world;

and it hath not come unto you,

because of unbelief.

Ether 4:15

Behold, when ye shall rend that veil of unbelief

which doth cause you to remain in your awful state of wickedness,

and hardness of heart, and blindness of mind,

then shall the great and marvelous things

which have been hid up from the foundation of the world from you —

yea, when ye shall call upon the Father in my name,

with a broken heart and a contrite spirit,

then shall ye know that the Father hath remembered the covenant

which he made unto your fathers, O house of Israel.

Ether 4:16

And then shall my revelations

which I have caused to be written by my servant John

be unfolded in the eyes of all the people.

Remember, when ye see these things,

ye shall know that the time is at hand

that they shall be made manifest in very deed.

Ether 4:17

Therefore, when ye shall receive this record

ye may know that the work of the Father has commenced

upon all the face of the land.

Ether 4:18

Therefore, repent all ye ends of the earth,

and come unto me, and believe in my gospel,

and be baptized in my name;

for he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved;

but he that believeth not shall be damned;

and signs shall follow them that believe in my name.

Ether 4:19

And blessed is he that is found faithful unto my name at the last day,

for he shall be lifted up to dwell in the kingdom

prepared for him from the foundation of the world.

And behold it is I that hath spoken it.

Amen.
