that ye may have light when ye are swallowed up in the depths of the sea?

and prepare them that they may shine forth in darkness;

and they shall shine forth unto us in the vessels which we have prepared,

that we may have light while we shall cross the sea.

Ether 4:12

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

for good cometh of none save it be of me.

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.
