And I looked, and beheld
three generations
pass away in righteousness;
and their garments were white
even like unto the Lamb of God.
And the angel said unto me:
These are made white
in the blood of the Lamb,
because of their faith in him.
(1 Nephi 12:11)
Sanctified By Faith In Christ
Christ Showed Himself
And I saw the heavens open,
and the Lamb of God
descending out of heaven;
and he came down
and showed himself unto them.
(1 Nephi 12:6)
Jesus Died For Us
Jesus Christ Heals Us
And I looked, and I beheld
the Lamb of God going forth
among the children of men.
And I beheld multitudes
of people who were sick,
and who were afflicted
with all manner of diseases,
and with devils and unclean spirits;
and the angel spake and showed
all these things unto me.
And they were healed by
the power of the Lamb of God;
and the devils and
the unclean spirits were cast out.
(1 Nephi 11:31)
Jesus Is Our Redeemer
I looked and beheld
the Redeemer of the world,
of whom my father had spoken;
and I also beheld the prophet
who should prepare the way before him.
And the Lamb of God went forth
and was baptized of him;
and after he was baptized,
I beheld the heavens open, and
the Holy Ghost come down out of heaven
and abide upon him in the form of a dove.
And I beheld that he went forth
ministering unto the people,
in power and great glory;
and the multitudes were
gathered together to hear him;
and I beheld that
they cast him out from among them.
(1 Nephi 11:27-28)
Worship Jesus Christ
I looked, and I beheld the Son of God
going forth among the children of men;
and I saw many fall down at his feet
and worship him.
(1 Nephi 11:24)
Behold The Lamb Of God
And I beheld the city of Nazareth;
and in the city of Nazareth I beheld a virgin,
and she was exceedingly fair and white.
And it came to pass that I saw the heavens open;
and an angel came down and stood before me;
and he said unto me: Nephi, what beholdest thou?
And I said unto him:
I know that he loveth his children;
nevertheless, I do not know the meaning of all things.
And he said unto me:
Behold, the virgin whom thou seest
is the mother of the Son of God,
after the manner of the flesh.
And it came to pass that
I beheld that she was carried away in the Spirit;
and after she had been carried away in the Spirit
for the space of a time
the angel spake unto me, saying: Look!
And the angel said unto me:
Behold the Lamb of God,
yea, even the Son of the Eternal Father!
(1 Nephi 11:13-21)
Witness For Christ
Behold this thing shall be
given unto thee for a sign,
thou shalt also behold a man
descending out of heaven,
and him shall ye witness;
and after ye have witnessed him
ye shall bear record
that it is the Son of God.
(1 Nephi 11:7)
Believe In Christ
Blessed art thou,
because thou believest
in the Son
of the most high God.
(1 Nephi 11:6)
Power Through Faith In Christ
My father spake by
the power of the Holy Ghost,
which power he received
by faith on the Son of God—
and the Son of God was
the Messiah who should come.
(1 Nephi 10:17)
Jesus Is The Messiah
And after they had
slain the Messiah, who should come,
and after he had been slain
he should rise from the dead,
and should make himself manifest,
by the Holy Ghost, unto the Gentiles.
(1 Nephi 10:11)
Behold The Lamb Of God
And he spake also concerning a prophet
who should come before the Messiah,
to prepare the way of the Lord—
Yea, even he should go forth
and cry in the wilderness:
Prepare ye the way of the Lord,
and make his paths straight;
for there standeth one among you
whom ye know not;
and he is mightier than I,
whose shoe’s latchet
I am not worthy to unloose.
And much spake my father concerning this thing.
And my father said he should
baptize in Bethabara, beyond Jordan;
and he also said he should baptize with water;
even that he should baptize the Messiah with water.
Our Savior And Redeemer
Yea, even six hundred years from
the time that my father left Jerusalem,
a prophet would the Lord God raise up
among the Jews—even a Messiah,
or, in other words, a Savior of the world.
And he also spake concerning the prophets,
how great a number had testified of these things,
concerning this Messiah, of whom he had spoken,
or this Redeemer of the world.
Wherefore, all mankind
were in a lost and in a fallen state,
and ever would be save
they should rely on this Redeemer.
(1 Nephi 10:4-6)
Christ Is The God Of Our Fathers
The fulness of mine intent
is that I may persuade men
to come unto
the God of Abraham,
and the God of Isaac,
and the God of Jacob,
and be saved.
(1 Nephi 6:4)
Come, Follow Jesus Christ
He saw One descending out of the midst of heaven,
and he beheld that his luster
was above that of the sun at noon-day.
And he also saw twelve others following him.
(1 Nephi 1:9-10)
Jesus Christ Is Our Judge
And now I bid unto all, farewell.
I soon go to rest
in the paradise of God,
until my spirit and body
shall again reunite,
and I am brought forth
triumphant through the air,
to meet you before the pleasing bar
of the great Jehovah,
the Eternal Judge
of both quick and dead.
(Moroni 10:34)
Come Unto Jesus Christ
Yea, come unto Christ,
and be perfected in him,
and deny yourselves of all ungodliness;
and if ye shall deny yourselves of all ungodliness,
and love God with all your might, mind and strength,
then is his grace sufficient for you,
that by his grace ye may be perfect in Christ;
and if by the grace of God ye are perfect in Christ,
ye can in nowise deny the power of God.
And again, if ye by the grace of God are perfect in Christ,
and deny not his power,
then are ye sanctified in Christ by the grace of God,
through the shedding of the blood of Christ,
which is in the covenant of the Father
unto the remission of your sins,
that ye become holy, without spot.
(Moroni 10:32-33)
The Goodness Of Christ
And again
I would exhort you
that ye would
come unto Christ,
and lay hold upon
every good gift.
(Moroni 10:30)
