3:17 And moreover, I say unto you, that there shall be no other name
given nor any other way nor means whereby salvation can come unto the
children of men, only in and through the name of Christ, the Lord
Omnipotent.
3:18 For behold he judgeth, and his judgment is just; and the infant
perisheth not that dieth in his infancy; but men drink damnation to
their own souls except they humble themselves and become as little
children, and believe that salvation was, and is, and is to come, in
and through the atoning blood of Christ, the Lord Omnipotent.
3:19 For the natural man is an enemy to God, and has been from the fall
of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the
enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man and
becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord, and becometh
as a child, submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to
submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even
as a child doth submit to his father.
3:20 And moreover, I say unto you, that the time shall come when the
knowledge of the Savior shall spread throughout every nation, kindred,
tongue, and people.
3:21 And behold, when that time cometh, none shall be found blameless
before God, except it be little children, only through repentance and
faith on the name of the Lord God Omnipotent.
3:22 And even at this time, when thou shalt have taught thy people the
things which the Lord thy God hath commanded thee, even then are they
found no more blameless in the sight of God, only according to the
words which I have spoken unto thee.
3:23 And now I have spoken the words which the Lord God hath commanded
me.
3:24 And thus saith the Lord: They shall stand as a bright testimony
against this people, at the judgment day; whereof they shall be judged,
every man according to his works, whether they be good, or whether they
be evil.
3:25 And if they be evil they are consigned to an awful view of their
own guilt and abominations, which doth cause them to shrink from the
presence of the Lord into a state of misery and endless torment, from
whence they can no more return; therefore they have drunk damnation to
their own souls.
3:26 Therefore, they have drunk out of the cup of the wrath of God,
which justice could no more deny unto them than it could deny that Adam
should fall because of his partaking of the forbidden fruit; therefore,
mercy could have claim on them no more forever.
3:27 And their torment is as a lake of fire and brimstone, whose flames
are unquenchable, and whose smoke ascendeth up forever and ever. Thus
hath the Lord commanded me. Amen.
Mosiah Chapter 4
4:1 And now, it came to pass that when king Benjamin had made an end of
speaking the words which had been delivered unto him by the angel of
the Lord, that he cast his eyes round about on the multitude, and
behold they had fallen to the earth, for the fear of the Lord had come
upon them.
