Exodus 18:17 And Moses' father in law said
unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good.
18 Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is
with thee: for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou are not able to
perform it thyself alone.
19 Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God
shall be with thee: Be thou for the people to God-ward, that thou
mayest bring the causes unto God:
20 And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew
them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do.
21 Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such
as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over
them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of
fifties, and rulers of tens:

that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small
matter they shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they
shall bear the burden with thee.

make coats, and thou shalt make for them girdles, and bonnets shalt
thou make for them, for glory and for beauty.

him; and shalt anoint them, and consecrate them, and sanctify them,
that they may minister unto me in the priest's office.

P>33 And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
Numbers 11:16 And the LORD said unto Moses,
Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest
to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them
unto the tabernacle, of the congregation, that they may stand there
with thee.

shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not
thyself alone.

goods.
Numbers 21:8 And the LORD said unto Moses,

congregation of the LORD be not as sheep which have no shepherd.

man in whom is the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;
19 And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the
congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.
20 And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the
congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.
21 And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall ask
counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before the LORD: at his word
shall they go out, and at his word they shall come in, both he, and all
the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation.
Numbers 27:22 And Moses did as the LORD

man:

done? And Saul said, Because I saw that the people were scattered from
me, and that thou camest not within the days appointed, and that the
Philistines gathered themselves together at Michmash;
12 Therefore said I, The Philistines will come down now upon me to
Gilgal, and I have not made supplication unto the LORD: I forced myself
therefore, and offered a burnt offering.
13 And Samuel said to Saul, Thou has done foolishly: thou has not
kept the commandment of the LORD thy God, which he commanded thee: for
now would the LORD have established thy kingdom upon Israel for ever.

a man after his own heart, and the LORD hath commanded him to be
captain over his people, because thou hast not kept that which the LORD
commanded thee.
Samuel 16:6 And it came to pass, when they
were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the LORD's
anointed is before him.

seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but
the LORD looketh on the heart.
2 Kings 5:8 And it was so, when Elisha the man
of God had heard that the king of Israel had rent his clothes, that he
sent to the king, saying, Wherefore hast thou rent thy clothes? let him
come now to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.
9 So Naaman came with his horeses and with his chariot, and stood at
the door of the house of Elisha.
10 And Elisha set a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in
Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou
shalt be clean.
11 But Naaman was wroth, and went away, and said, Behold, I thought,
He will surely come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of the
LORD his God, and strike his hand over the place, and recover the
leper.
12 Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all
the waters of Israel? may I not wash in them, and be clean? Se he
turned and went away in a rage.
13 And his servants came near, and spake unto him, and said, My
father, if the prophet had bid the do some great thing, wouldest thou
not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, Wash,
and be clean?

according to the saying of the man of God: and his flesh came again
like unto the flesh of a little child, and he was clean.
Ezekiel 18:19 Yet say ye, Why? doth not the son bear the iniquity of the father? When the son hath done that which is lawful and right, and hath kept all my statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live.
20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.
21 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
22 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.
23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?
1_Chronicles_13_9 And when they came
unto the threshingfloor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the

strong, his heart was lifted up to his destruction: for he transgressed
against the LORD his God, and went into the temple of the LORD to burn
incense upon the altar of incense.

priests of the LORD, that were valiant men:
18 And they withstood Uzziah the king, and said unto him, It
appertaineth not unto thee, Uzziah, to burn incense unto the LORD, but
to the priests the sons of Aaron, that are consecrated to burn incense:
go out of the sancturary; for thou hast trespassed; neither shall it be
for thine honour from the LORD God.
19 Then Uzziah was wroth, and had a censer in his hand to burn
incense: and while he was wroth with the priests, the leprosy even rose
up in his forehead before the priests in the house of the LORD, from
beside the incense altar.

had smitten him.

intercession for the transgressors.
Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed thee in the
belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I
sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

child.
7 But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt
go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou
shall speak.

saith the LORD.

the east, they sahll run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and
shall not find it.

God.

Father which is in heaven.
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou are Peter, and upon this rock
I will build my church: and the gates of hell shall not prevail against
it.
19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and
whatsover thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and
whatsover thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

deceive many.

shall recover.
Mark 9:20 And they brought him unto him: and
when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the
ground, and wallowed foaming.

him? And he said, Of a child.
22 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters,
to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have acompassion on us,
and help us.

possible. to him that believeth.

think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

25 That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from
which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.
26 And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias;
and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
Acts 2:5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem
Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.
6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and
were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own
language.
7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another,
Behold, are not all these which speak Galileans?
8 And how hear we every man in our own tognuge, wherein we were
born?
9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in
Mesopotamia, and in Judea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,
10 Phygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about
Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,
11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the
wonderful works of God.
Acts 6:5 And the saying pleased the whole
multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy
Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas,
and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:
6 Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they
laid their hands on them.
Acts 13:2 As they ministered to the Lord, and
fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work
whereunto I have called them.

they sent them away.
Acts 14:8 And there sat a certain man at Lystra,
impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never

and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you
overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his
own blood.

enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse
things, to draw away disciples after them.
Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.
16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.
17 for if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
Romans 15:4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
1 Corinthians 3:11 For other foundation
can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 10:4 And did all drink
the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that
followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
1 Corinthians 12:1 Now concerning
spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols,
even as ye were led.
3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the
Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that
Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God
which worketh all in all.
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to
profit withal.
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another
the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of
healing by the same Spirit:
1 Corinthians 12:10 To another the
working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of
spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the
interpretation of tongues;
1 Corinthians 12:13 For by one Spirit
are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles,
whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one
Spirit.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the
body; is it therefore not of the body?
16 And if the ear shal say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of
the body; is it therefore not of the body?
1 Corinthians 12:25 That there should
be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same
care one for another.
26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or
one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily
prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of
healings, helps governments, diversities of tongues.
29 Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all
workers of miracles?
1 Corinthians 13:1 Though I speak with
the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as
sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
1 Corinthians 14:4 He that speaketh in
an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth
the church.
5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye
prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh
with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive
edifying.
6 Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what
shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation,
or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?
1 Corinthians 15:21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
Galatians 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon
removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another
gospel:
7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and
would pervert the gospel of Christ.
Ephesians 2:19 Now therefore ye are no more
strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of
the household of God;
20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets,
Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
21 In whom all the building fitly framed toegether groweth unto an
holy temple in the Lord:
Ephesians 4:11 And he gave some, apostles;
and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and
teachers;
12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry,
for the edifying of the body of Christ:
13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge
of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature
of the fulness of Christ:
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and
carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and
cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all
things, which is the head, even Christ:
16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by
that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in
the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the
edifying of itself in love.
Philippians 1:1 Paul and Timotheus, the
servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are
at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:
2 Thessalonians 2:2 That ye be not
soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word,
nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come,
except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be
revealed, the son of perdition;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or
that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God,
shewing himself that he is God.
1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh
expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith,
giving heed to seducitng spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a
hot iron;
3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which
God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe
and know the truth.
4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if
it be received with thanksgiving:
5 For it sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
2 Timothy 3:1 This know also, that in the
last days perilous time shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters,
proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers,
incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers
of God;
5 Having a form of godliness; but denying the power thereof: from
such turn away.
2 Timothy 3:15 And that from a child thou
hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto
salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable
for doctrine, for reproof, for conrection, for instruction in
righteousness:
2 Timothy 4:3 For the time will come when
they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall
they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be
turned unto fables.
Titus 1:5 For this cause left I thee in Crete,
that thou shouldest set in order the things that are wanting, and
ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed thee:
Hebrews 5:4 And no man taketh this honour unto
himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.
Hebrews 6:13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,
14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
15 And so after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
Hebrews 12:5 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:
6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask
of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it
shall be given him.
James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
James 5:10 Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience.
11 Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.
2 Peter 1:20 Knowing this first, that no
prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
21 For the prophecy come not in old time by the will of man: but
holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
Revelation 13:4 And they worshipped the
dragon which gave poser unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast,
saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and
blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two
months.
6 And he opened his houth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his
name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to
overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues,
and nations.
8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names
are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the
foundation of the world.
1 Nephi 4:12 And it came to pass that the
Spirit said unto me again: Slay him, for the Lord hath delivered him
into thy hands;
13 Behold the Lord slayeth the wicked to bring forth his righteous
purposes. It is better that one man should perish than that a nation
should dwindle and perish in unbelief.
14 And now, when I, Nephi, had heard these words, I remembered the
words of the Lord which he spake unto me in the wilderness, saying
that: Inasmuch as they seed shall keep my commandments, they shall
prosper in the land of promise.
15 Yea, and I also thought that they could not keep the commandments
of the Lord according to the law of Moses, save they should have the
law.
16 And I also knew that the law was engraven upon the plates of
brass.
1 Nephi 5:21 And we had obtained the records
which the Lord had commanded us, and searched them and found that they
were desirable; yea, even of great worth unto us, insomuch that we
could preserve the commandments of the Lord unto our children.
22 Wherefore, it was wisdom in the Lord that we should carry them
with us, as we journeyed in the wilderness towards the land of promise.
1 Nephi 13:37 And blessed are they who shall seek to bring forth my Zion at that day, for they shall have the gift and the power of the Holy Ghost; and if they endure unto the end they shall be lifted up at the last day, and shall be saved in the everlasting kingdom of the Lamb; and whoso shall publish peace, yea, tidings of great joy, how beautiful upon the mountains shall they be.
1 Nephi 19:23 And I did read many things
unto them which were written in the books of Moses; but that I might
more fully persuade them to believe in the Lord their Redeemer I did
read unto them that which was written by the prophet Isaiah; for I did
liken all scriptures unto us, that it might be for our profit and
learning.
2 Nephi 2:4 And thou hast beheld in thy
youth his glory; wherefore, thou art blessed even as they unto whom he
shall minister in the flesh; for the Spirit is the same, yesterday,
today, and forever.
5 And men are instructed sufficiently that they know good from evil.
And the law is given unto men. And by the law no flesh is justified;
or, by the law men are cut off. Yea, by the temporal law they were cut
off; and also, by the spiritual law they perish from that which is
good, and become miserable forever.
6 Wherefore, redemption cometh in and through the Holy Messiah; for
he is full of grace and truth.
7 Behold, he offereth himself a sacrifice for sin, to answer the
ends of the law, unto all those who have a broken heart and a contrite
spirit; and unto none else can the ends of the law be answered.
2 Nephi 2:22 And now, behold, if Adam had not transgressed he would not have fallen, but he would have remained in the garden of Eden. And all things which ere created must have remained in the same state in which they were after they were created; and they must have remained forever, and had no end.
23 And they would have had no children; wherefore they would have remained in a state of innocence, having no joy, for they knew no misery; doing no good, for they knew no sin.
24 But behold, all things have been done in the wisdom of him who knoweth all things.
25 Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy.
2 Nephi 9:6 For as death hath passed upon
all men, to fulfil the merciful plan of the great Creator, there must
needs be a power of resurrection, and the resurrection must needs come
unto man by reason of the fall; and the fall came by reason of
transgression; and because man became fallen they were cut off from the
presence of the Lord.
24 And if they will not repent and believe in his name, and be baptized in his name, and endure to the end, they must be damned; for the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, has spoken it.
2 Nephi 25:23 For we labor diligently to
write, to persuade our children, and also our brethren, to believe in
Christ, and to be reconciled to God; for we know that it is by grace
that we are saved, after all we can do.
2 Nephi 29:1 But behold, there shall be many
-- at that day when I shall proceed to do a marvelous work among them,
that I may remember my covenants which I have made unto the children of
men, that I may set my hand again the second time to recover my people,
which are of the house of Israel;
2 And also, that I may remember the promises which I have made unto
thee, Nephi, and also unto thy father, that I would remember your seed;
and that the words of your seed should proceed forth out of my mouth
unto your seed; and my words shall hiss forth unto the ends of the
earth, for a standard unto my people, which are of the house of Israel;
3 And because my words shall hiss forth -- many of the Gentiles
shall say: A Bible! A Bible! We have got a Bible, and there cannot be
any more Bible.
4 But thus saith the Lord God: O fools, they shall have a Bible; and
it shall proceed forth from the Jews, mine ancient covenant people. And
what thank they the Jew, mine ancient covenant people. And what thank
they the Jews for the Bible which they receive from them? Yea, what do
the Gentiles mean? Do they remember the travails, and the labors, and
the pains of the Jews, and their diligence unto me, in bringing forth
salvation unto the Genties?
5 O ye Gentiles, have ye remembered the Jews, mine ancient covenant
people? Nay; but ye have cursed them, and have hated them, and have not
sought to recover them. But behold, I will return all these things upon
your own heads; for I the Lord have not forgotten my people.
6 Thou fool that shall say: A Bible, we have got a Bible, and we
need no more Bible. Have ye obtained a Bible save it were by the Jews?
7 Know ye not that there are more nations than one? Know ye not that
I, the Lord your God, have created all men, and that I remember those
who are upon the isles of the sea; and that I rule in the heavens above
and in the earth beneath; and I bring forth my word unto the children
of men, yea, even upon all the nations of the earth?
8 Wherefore murmur ye, because that ye shall receive more of my
work? Know ye not that the testimony of two nations is a witness unto
you that I am God, that I remember one nation like unto another?
Wherefore, I speak the same words unto one nation like unto another.
And when the two nations shall run together the testimony of the two
nations shall run together also.
9 And I do this that I may prove unto many that I am the same
yesterday, today, and forever; and that I speak forth my words
according to mine own pleasure. And because that I have spoken one word
ye need not suppose that I cannot speak another; for my work is not yet
finished; neither shall it be until the end of man, neither from that
time henceforth and forever.
10 Wherefore, because that ye have a Bible ye need not suppose that
it contains all my words; neither need ye suppose that I have not
caused more to be written.
11 For I command all men, both in the east and in the west, and in
the north, and in the south, and in the islands of the sea, that they
shall write the words which I speak unto them; for out of the books
which shall be written I will judge the world, every man according to
their works, according to that which is written.
12 For behold, I shall speak unto the Jews and they shall write it;
and I shall also speak unto the Nephites and they shall write it; and I
shall also speak unto the other tribes of the house of Israel, which I
have led away, and they shall write it; and I shall also speak unto all
nations of the earth and they shall write it.
13 And it shall come to pass that the Jews shall have the words of
the Nephites, and the Nephites shall have the words of the Jews; and
the Nephites and the Jews shall have the words of the lost tribes of
Israel; and the lost tribes of Israel shall have the words of the
Nephites and the Jews.
14 And it shall come to pass that my people, which are of the house
of Israel, shall be gathered home unto the lands of their possessions;
and my word also shall be gathered in one. And I will show unto them
that fight against my word and against my people, who are of the house
of Israel, that I am God, and that I covenanted with Abraham that I
would remember his seed forever.
2 Nephi 31:20 Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and love of God and of all men, Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.
2 Nephi 33:2 But behold, there are many that
harden their hearts against the Holy Spirit, that it hath no place in
them; wherefore, they cast many things away which are written and
esteem them as things of naught.
3 But I, Nephi, have written what I have written, and I esteem it as
of great worth, and especially unto my people. For I pray continually
for them by day, and mine eyes water my pillow by night, because of
them; and I cry unto my God in faith, and I know that he will hear my
cry.
Jacob 7:10 And I said unto him: Believest thou
the scriptures? And he said, Yea.
Jacob 7:11 And I said unto him: Then ye do not
understand them; for they truly testify of Christ, Behold, I say unto
you that none of the prophets have written, nor prophesied, save they
have spoken concerining this Christ.
Jacob 7:19 And he said: I fear lest I have
committed the unpardonable sin, for I have lied unto God; for I denied
the Christ, and said that I believed the scriptures; and they truly
testify of him. And because I have thus lied unto God I greatly fear
lest my case shall be awful; but I confess unto God.
20 And it came to pass that when he had said these words he could
say no more, and he gave up the ghost.
Omni 1:25 And it came to pass that I began to be
old; and, having no seed, and knowing king Benjamin to be a just man
before the Lord, wherefore, I shall deliver up these plates unto him,
exhorting all men to come unto God, the Holy One of Israel, and believe
in prophesying, and in revelations, and in the ministering of
angels, and in the gift of speaking with tongues, and in the gift of
interpreting languages, and in all things which are good; for there is
nothing which is good save it comes from the Lord: and that which is
evil cometh from the devil.
Mosiah_2_21 I say unto you that if ye
should serve him who has created you from the beginning, and is
preserving your from day to day, by lending you breath, that ye may
live and move and do according to your own will, and even supporting
you from one moment to another -- I say, if ye should serve him with
all your whole souls yet ye would be unprofitable servants.
Mosiah 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.
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 throught the atoning blood of Christ, the Lord Omnipotent.
Mosiah 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.
Mosiah 13:28 And moreover, I say unto
you, that salvation doth not come by the law alone; and were it not for
the atonement, which God himself shall make for the sins and iniquities
of his people, that they must unavoidably perish, notwithstanding the
law of Moses.
29 And now I say unto you that it was expedient that there should be
a law given to the children of Israel, yea, even a very strict law; for
they were a stifnecked people, quick to do iniquity, and slow to
remember the Lord their God;
30 Therefore there was a law given them, yea, a law of performances
and of ordinances, a law which they wre to observe strictly from day to
day, to keep them in remembrance of Goad and their duty towards him.
31 But behold, I say unto you, that all these things were types of
things to come.
Mosiah 18:17 And they were called the church
of Christ, from that time forward. And it came to pass that whoseover
was baptized by the power and authority of God was added to his church.
18 And it came to pass that Alma, having authority from God,
ordained priests; even one priest to every fifty of their number did he
ordain to preach unto them, and to teach them concerning the things
pertaining to the kingdom of God.
Mosiah 18:24 And he also commanded them that
the priests whom he had ordained should labor with their own hands for
their support.
25 And there was on day in every week that was set apart that they
should gather themselves together to teach the people, and to worship
the Lord their God, and also, as often as it was in their power, to
assemble themselves together.
26 And the priests were not to depend upon the people for their
support; but for their labor they were to receive the grace of God,
that they might wax strong in the Spirit, having the knowledge of God,
that they might teach with power and authority from God.
Alma 4:7 Now this was the cause of much
affliction to Alma, yea, and to many of the people whom Alma had
consecrated to be teachers, and priests, and elders over the church;
yea, many of them were sorely grieved for the wickedness which they saw
had begun to be amoung their people.
Alma 5:3 I, Alma, having been consecrated by my
father, Alma, to be a high priest over the church of God, he having
power and authority from God to do these things, behold, I say unto you
that he began to establish a church in the land which was in the
borders of Nephi; yea, the land which was called the land of Mormon;
yea, and he did baptize his brethren in the waters of Mormon.
Alma 5:60 And now I say unto you that the good shepherd doth call after you; and if you will hearken unto his voice he will bring you into his fold, and ye are his sheep; and he commandeth you that ye suffer no ravenous wolf to enter among you, that ye may not be destroyed.
61 And now I, Alma, do command you in the language of him who hath commanded me, that ye observe to do the words which I have spoken unto you.
Alma 13:2 And those priests were ordained
after the order of his Son, in a manner that thereby the people might
know in what manner to look forward to his Son for redemption.
3 And this is the manner after which they were ordained -- being
called and prepared from the foundation of the world according to the
foreknowledge of God, on account of their exceeding faith and good
works; in the first place being left to choose good or evil; therefore
they having chosen good, and exercising exceedingly great faith, are
called with a holy calling, yea, with that holy calling which was
prepared with, and according to, a preparatory redemption for such.
4 And thus they have been called to this holy calling on account of
their faith, while others would reject the Spirit of God on account of
the hardness of their hearts and blindness of their minds, while, if it
had not been for this they might have had as great privilege as their
brethern.
5 Or in fine, in the first place they were on the same standing with
their brethren; thus this holy calling being prepared from the
foundation of the world for such as would not harden their hearts,
being in and through the atonement of the Only Begotten Son, who was
prepared --
6 And thus being called by this holy calling, and ordained unto the
high priesthood of the holy order of God, to teach his commandments
unto the children of men, that they also might enter into his rest--
7 This high priesthood being after the order of his Son, which order
was from the foundation of the world; or in other words, being without
beginning of days or end of years, being prepared from eternity to all
eternity, according to his foreknowledge of all things --
8 Now they were ordained after this manner--being called with a holy
calling, and ordained with a holy ordinace, and taking upon them the
high priesthood of the holy order, which calling, and ordinance, and
high priesthood, is without beginning or end
9 Thus they become high priests foreer, after the order of the Son,
the Only Begotten of the Father, who is without beginning of days or
end of years, who is full of grace, equity, and truth. And thus it is.
Amen.
Alma 13:10 Now, as I said concerning the
holy order, or this high priesthood, there were many who were ordained
and became high priests of God; and it was on account of their
exceeding faith and repentance, and their righteousness before God,
they choosing to repent and work righteousness rather than to perish;
11 Therefore they were called after this holy order, and were
sanctified, and their garments were washed white through the blood of
the Lamb.
Alma 33:19 Behold, he was spoken of by Moses;
yea, and behold a type was raise up in the wilderness, that whosoever
would look upon it might live. And many did look and live.
20 But few understood the meaning of those things, and this because
of the hardness of their hearts. But there were many who were so
hardened that they would not look, therefore they perished. Now the
reason they would not look is because they did not believe that it
would heal them.
Alma 34:11 Now there is not any man that can sacrifice his own blood which will atone for the sins of another. Now, if a man murdereth, behold will our law, which is just, take the life of his brother? I say unto you, Nay.
12 But the law requireth the life of him who hath murdered; therefore there can be nothing which is short of an infinite atonement which will suffice for the sins of the world.
Alma 34:13 Therefore, it is expedient that there
should be a great and last sacrifice, and then shall there be, or it is
expedient there should be, a stop to the shedding of blood; then shall
the law of Moses be fulfilled; yea, it shall be all fulfilled, every
jot and tittle, and none shall have passed away.
14 And behold, this is the whole meaning of the law, every whit
pointing to the great and last sacrifice will be the Son of God, yea
infinite and eternal.
Alma 42:6 But behold, it was appointed unto man to die—therefore, as they were cut off from the tree of life they should be cut off from the face of the earth—and man became lost forever, yea, they became fallen man.
7 And now, ye see by this that our first parents were cut off both temporally and spiritually from the presence of the Lord; and thus we see they became subjects to follow after their own will.
3 Nephi 12:1 And it came to pass that
when Jesus had spoken these words unto Nephi, and to those who had been
called, (now the number of them who had been called, and received power
and authority to baptize, was twelve) and behold, he stretched forth
his hand unto the multitude, and cried unto them, saying; Blessed are
ye if ye shall give heed unto the words of these twelve whom I have
chosen from among you to minister unto you, and to be your servants;
and unto them I have given power that they may baptize you with water;
and after that ye are baptized with water, behold, I will baptize you
with fire and with the Holy Ghost; therefore blessed are ye if ye shall
believe in me and be baptized, after that ye have seen me and know that
I am.
3 Nephi 15:9 Behold, I am the law, and the light. Look unto me, and endure to the end, and ye shall live; for unto him that endureth to the end will I give eternal life.
3 Nephi 17:7 Have ye any that are sick among
you? Bring them hither. Have ye any that are lame, or blind, or halt,
or maimed, or leprous, or that are withered, or that are deaf, or that
are afflicted in any manner? Bring them hither and I will heal them,
for I have compassion upon you; my bowels are filled with mercy.
8 For I perceive that ye desire that I should show unto you what
I have done unto your brethren at Jerusalem, for I see that your faith
is sufficient that I should heal you.
9 And it came to pass that when he had thus spoken, all the
multitude, with one accord, did go forth with their sick and their
afflicted, and their lame, and with their blind, and with their dumb,
and with all them that were afflicted in any manner; and he did heal
them every one as they were brought forth unto him.
3 Nephi 23:6 And now it came to pass that
when Jesus had said these words he said unto them again, after he had
expounded all the scriptures unto them which they had received, he said
unto them: Behold, other scriptures I would that ye should write, that
ye have not.
7 And it came to pass that he said unto Nephi: Bring forth the
record which ye have kept.
8 And when Nephi had brought forth the records, and laid them before
him, he cast his eyes upon them and said:
9 Verily I say unto you, I commaned my servant Samuel, the Lamanite,
that he should testify unto this people, that at the day that the
Father should glorify his name in me that there were many saints who
should arise from the dead, and should appear unto many, and should
minister unto them. And he said unto them: Was it not so?
10 And his disciples answered him and said: Yea, Lord, Samuel did
prophesy according to thy words, and they were all fulfilled.
11 And Jesus said unto them: How be it that ye have not written this
thing, that many saints did arise and appear unto many and did minister
unto them?
12 And it came to pass that Nephi remembered that this thing had not
been written.
13 And it came to pass that Jesus commanded that it should be
written; therefore it was written according as he commanded.
3 Nephi 24:1 And it came to pass that he
commanded them that they should write the words which the Father had
given unto Malachi, which he should tell unto them. And it came to pass
that after they were written he expounded them. And these are the words
which he did tell unto them, saying: Thus said the Father unto Malachi
-- Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way
before me, and the Lord whom ye seek shall suddenly come to his temple,
even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in; behold, he
shall come, saith the Lord of Hosts.
3 Nephi 27:16 And it shall come to pass, that whoso repenteth and is baptized in my name shall be filled; and if he endureth to the end, behold, him will I hold guiltless, before my Father at that day when I shall stand to judge the world.
17 And he that endureth not unto the end, the same is he that is also hewn down and cast into the fire, from whence they can no more return, because of the justice of the Father.
18 And this is the word which he hath given unto the children of men. And for this cause he fulfilleth the words which he hath given, and he lieth not, but fulfilleth all his words.
3 Nephi 29:6 Yea, wo unto him that shall deny
the revelations of the Lord, and that shall say the Lord no longer
worketh by revelation, or by prophecy, or by gifts, or by tongues, or
by healings, or by the power of the Holy Ghost!
7 Yea, and wo unto him that shall say at that day, to get gain, that
there can be no miracle wrought by Jesus Christ; for he that doeth this
shall become like unto the son of perdition, for whom there was no
mercy, according to the word of Christ!
4 Nephi 1:1 And it came to pass that the
thirty and fourth year passed away, and also the thirty and fifth, and
behold the disciples of Jesus had formed a church of Christ in all the
lands round about. And as many as did come unto them, and did truly
repent of their sins, were baptized in the name of Jesus; and they did
also receive the Holy Ghost.
Mormon 8:35 Behold, I speak unto you as if
ye were present, and yet ye are not. But behold, Jesus Christ hath
shown you unto me, and I know your doing.
36 And I know that ye do walk in the pride of your hearts; and there
are none save a few only who do not lift themselves up in the pride of
their hearts, unto the waring of very fine apparel, unto envying, and
strifes, and amlice, and persecutions, and all manner of iniquities;
and your churches, yea, even every one, have become polluted because of
the pride of your hearts.
Mormon 9:7 And again I speak unto you who
deny the revelations of God, and say that they are done away, that
there are no revelations, nor prophecies, nor gifts, nor healings, nor
speaking with tongues, and the interpretation of tongues;
8 Behold I say unto you, he that denieth these things knoweth not
the gospel of Christ; yea, he has not read the scriptures; if so, he
does not understand them.
9 For do we not read that God is the same yesterday, today, and
forever, and in him there is no variablness neither shadow of changing?
10 And now, if ye have imageined up unto yourselves a god who doth
vary, and in whom there is shadow of cdhanging, then have ye imagined
up unto yourselves a god who is not a God of miracles.
11 But behold, I will show unto you a God of miracles, even the God
of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob; and it is that
same God who created the heavens and the earth, and all things that in
them are.
Mormon 9:12 Behold, he created Adam, and by Adam came the fall of man. And because of the fall of man came Jesus Christ, even the Father and the son; and because of Jesus Christ came the redemption of man.
13 And because of the redemption of man, which came by Jesus Christ, they are brought back into the presence of the Lord; yea, this is wherein all men are redeemed, because the death of Christ bringeth to pass the resurrection, which bringeth to pass a redemption from an endless sleep, form which sleep all men shall be awakened by the power of God when the trump shall sound; and they shall come forth, both small and great, and all shall stand before his bar, being redeemed and loosed from this eternal band of death, which death is a temporal death.
Moroni 3:1 The manner which the disciples, who
were called the elders of the church, ordained priests and teachers --
2 After they had prayed unto the Father in the name of Christ, they
laid their hands upon them, and said:
3 In the name of Jesus Christ I ordain you to be a priest, (or, if
he be a teacher) I ordain you to be a teacher, to preach repentance and
remission of sins through Jesus Christ, by the endurance of faiith on
his name to the end. Amen.
4 And after this manner did they ordain priests and teachers,
according to the gifts and callings of God unto men; and they ordained
them by the power of the Holy Ghost, which was in them.
Moroni 10:8 And again, I exhort you, my
brethren, that ye deny not the gifts of God, for they are many; and
they come from the same God. And there are different ways that these
gifts are administerd: but it is the same God who worketh all in all;
and they are given by the manifestations of the Spirit of God unto men,
to profit them.
9 For behold, to one is given by the Spirit of God, that he may
teach the word of wisdom;
10 And to another, that he may teach the word of knowledge by the
same Spirit;
11 And to another, exceedingly great faith; and to another, the
gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
12 And again, to another, that he may prophesy concerning all
things;
13 And again, to another, the beholding of angels and ministering
spirits;
15 And again, to another, the interpretation of languages and of
divers kinds of tongues.
17 And all these gifts come by the Spirit of Christ; and they come
unto every man severally, according as he will.
D&C 4:3 Therefore, if ye have desires to serve
God ye are called to the work;
D&C 10:69 And now, behold, whosoever is of my church, and endureth of my church to the end, him will I establish upon my rock, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against them.
70 And now, remember the words of him who is the life and light of the world, your Redeemer, your Lord and your God. Amen.
D&C 11:15 Behold, I command you that you need
not suppose that you are called to preach until you are called.
D&C 14:7 And, if you keep my commandments and endure to the end you shall have eternal life, which gift is the greatest of all the gifts of God.
D&C 18:22 And as many as repent and are baptized in my name, which is Jesus Christ, and endure to the end, the same shall be saved.
D&C 20:2 Which commandments were given to Joseph
Smith, Jun., who was called of God, and ordained an apostle of Jesus
Christ, to be the first elder of this church;
D&C 20:7 And gave unto him commandments which inspired him;
8 And gave him power from on high, by the means which were before prepared, to translate the Book of Mormon;
9 Which contains a record of a fallen people, and the fullness of the gospel of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles and to the Jews also;
10 Which was given by inspiration, and is confirmed to others by the ministering of angels, and is declared unto the world by them --
11 Proving to the world that the holy scriptures are true, and that God does inspire men and call them to his holy work in this age and generation, as well as in generations of old;
12 Thereby showing that he is the same God yesterday, today, and forever. Amen.
D&C 20:20 But by the transgression of these holy laws man became sensual and devilish, and became fallen man.
21 Wherefore, the Almighty God gave his Only Begotten Son, as it is written in those scriptures which have been given of him.
22 He suffered temptations but gave no heed unto them.
23 He was crucified, died, and rose again the third day;
24 And ascended into heaven, to sit down on the right hand of the Father, to reign with almighty power according to the will of the Father;
D&C 20:25 That as many as would believe and be baptized in his holy name, and endure in faith to the end, should be saved --
26 Not only those who believed after he came in the meridian of time, in the flesh, but all those from the beginning, even as many as were before he came, who believed in the words of the holy prophets, who spake as they were inspired by the gift of the Holy Ghost, who truly testified of him in all things, should have eternal life,
27 As well as those who should come after, who should believe in the gifts and callings of God by the Holy Ghost, which beareth record of the Father and of the Son;
28 Which Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are one God, infinite and eternal, without end, Amen.
D&C 20:29 And we know that all men must repent and believe on the name of Jesus Christ, and worship the Father in his name, and endure in faith on his name to the end, or they cannot be saved in the kingdom of God.
