Look To Christ And Live

Do ye believe those scriptures
which have been written by them of old?

Behold, if ye do, ye must believe
what Zenos said; for, behold he said:
Thou hast turned away thy judgments
because of thy Son.

For it is not written that
Zenos alone spake of these things,
but Zenock also spake of these things—

For behold, he said:
Thou art angry, O Lord, with this people,
because they will not understand
thy mercies which thou hast bestowed
upon them because of thy Son.

And now ye see that a second prophet of old
has testified of the Son of God,
and because the people would not
understand his words
they stoned him to death.

But behold, this is not all;
these are not the only ones
who have spoken
concerning the Son of God.

Behold, he was spoken of by Moses;
yea, and behold a type was
raised up in the wilderness,
that whosoever would look upon it might live.

And many did look and live.

O if ye could be healed by merely
casting about your eyes that ye might be healed,
then cast about your eyes and
begin to believe in the Son of God,
that he will come to redeem his people,
and that he shall suffer and die to atone for their sins;
and that he shall rise again from the dead,
which shall bring to pass the resurrection,
that all men shall stand before him,
to be judged at the last and judgment day,
according to their works.

And now I desire that
ye shall plant this word in your hearts,
and then may God grant unto you
that your burdens may be light,
through the joy of his Son.

And even all this can ye do if ye will.
(Alma 33:12-13, 15-19, 21-23)
