The Spirit of the Lord came upon them,
and they were filled with joy,
having received a remission of their sins,
and having peace of conscience,
because of the exceeding faith
which they had in Jesus Christ.
(Mosiah 4:3)
Faith In Jesus Christ
Purified Through Christ
And they all cried aloud with one voice, saying:
O have mercy, and apply the atoning blood of Christ
that we may receive forgiveness of our sins,
and our hearts may be purified;
for we believe in Jesus Christ, the Son of God,
who created heaven and earth, and all things;
who shall come down among the children of men.
(Mosiah 4:2)
Only Through Christ
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.
(Mosiah 3:21)
Every Knee Shall Bow
The time shall come when
the knowledge of a Savior
shall spread throughout
every nation, kindred,
tongue, and people.
(Mosiah 3:20)
Through The Atonement Of Christ
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.
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 3:18-19)
Only Through Jesus Christ
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.
(Mosiah 3:17)
The Grace Of God
Even if it were possible
that little children could sin
they could not be saved;
but I say unto you they are blessed;
for behold,
as in Adam, or by nature, they fall,
even so the blood of Christ
atoneth for their sins.
(Mosiah 3:16)
Great Joy In Christ
The Lord God hath sent his holy prophets
among all the children of men,
to declare these things to
every kindred, nation, and tongue,
that thereby whosoever should
believe that Christ should come,
the same might receive remission of their sins,
and rejoice with exceedingly great joy.
(Mosiah 3:13)
Salvation Is Only In Christ
Salvation cometh to none
except it be through repentance
and faith on the Lord Jesus Christ.
(Mosiah 3:12)
Jesus Christ, Our Savior And Redeemer
Awake, and hear the words which I shall tell thee;
for behold, I am come to declare unto you
the glad tidings of great joy.
For the Lord hath sent me to declare unto thee
that thou mayest rejoice;
and that thou mayest declare unto thy people,
that they may also be filled with joy.
For behold, the time cometh, and is not far distant,
that with power, the Lord Omnipotent who reigneth,
who was, and is from all eternity to all eternity,
shall come down from heaven among the children of men,
and shall dwell in a tabernacle of clay,
and shall go forth amongst men, working mighty miracles,
such as healing the sick, raising the dead,
causing the lame to walk, the blind to receive their sight,
and the deaf to hear, and curing all manner of diseases.
And lo, he shall suffer temptations,
and pain of body, hunger, thirst, and fatigue,
even more than man can suffer, except it be unto death;
for behold, blood cometh from every pore,
so great shall be his anguish for the wickedness
and the abominations of his people.
And he shall be called Jesus Christ, the Son of God,
the Father of heaven and earth,
the Creator of all things from the beginning;
and his mother shall be called Mary.
And lo, he cometh unto his own,
that salvation might come unto the children of men
even through faith on his name;
and even after all this they shall consider him a man,
and say that he hath a devil,
and shall scourge him, and shall crucify him.
The Redemption Of Christ
And my prayer to God
is concerning my brethren,
that they may once again
come to the knowledge of God,
yea, the redemption of Christ.
(The Words of Mormon 1:8)
The Prophecies Of Christ
And it is many hundred years
after the coming of Christ
that I deliver these records
into the hands of my son;
and may God grant that he may
write somewhat concerning Christ,
and the prophecies
of the coming of Christ.
(The Words of Mormon 1:2 & 4)
Salvation Is In Jesus Christ
Come unto God, the Holy One of Israel,
and come unto Christ,
who is the Holy One of Israel,
and partake of his salvation,
and the power of his redemption.
Yea, come unto him, and offer your whole souls
as an offering unto him,
and continue in fasting and praying,
and endure to the end; and
as the Lord liveth ye will be saved.
(Omni 1:25-26)
Christ Is The Law
The prophets, and the priests, and the teachers,
did labor diligently,
exhorting with all long-suffering
the people to diligence;
teaching the law of Moses,
and the intent for which it was given;
persuading them to look forward
unto the Messiah, and believe in him to come
as though he already was.
(Jarom 1:11)
The Rest Of The Lord
I soon go to the place of my rest,
which is with my Redeemer;
for I know that in him I shall rest.
And I rejoice in the day when
my mortal shall put on immortality,
and shall stand before him;
then shall I see his face with pleasure,
and he will say unto me:
Come unto me, ye blessed,
there is a place prepared for you
in the mansions of my Father.
(Enos 1:27)
Joy In Christ's Salvation
And I saw that I must soon
go down to my grave,
having been wrought upon
by the power of God
that I must preach
and prophesy unto this people,
and declare the word
according to the truth
which is in Christ.
And I have declared it
in all my days,
and have rejoiced in it
above that of the world.
(Enos 1:26)
Trust In Our Savior
Whatsoever thing
ye shall ask in faith,
believing that ye shall receive
in the name of Christ,
ye shall receive it.
(Enos 1:15)
Made Whole In Christ
And I knew that God could not lie;
wherefore, my guilt was swept away.
And he said unto me:
Because of thy faith in Christ,
wherefore, go to,
thy faith hath made thee whole.
(Enos 1:6-8)
Deny Not The Christ
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.
(Jacob 7:19)
They Testify Of Christ
