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.
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.
And it came to pass that
after they had spoken these words
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.
Exceeding Faith In Jesus Christ
The Knowledge Of Our Savior
And moreover, I say unto you,
that the time shall come when
the knowledge of a Savior
shall spread throughout
every nation, kindred, tongue, and people.
Through The Atonement Of Christ
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.
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.
Children In Christ
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.
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.
Salvation Is In Jesus Christ
Salvation cometh to none
except it be through repentance
and faith on the Lord Jesus Christ.
And 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.
He Is Jesus Christ, The Son Of God
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 he shall cast out devils, or the evil spirits
which dwell in the hearts of the children of men.
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.
And he shall rise the third day from the dead;
and behold, he standeth to judge the world;
and behold, all these things are done
that a righteous judgment might
come upon the children of men.
For behold, and also his blood atoneth for the sins
of those who have fallen by the transgression of Adam,
who have died not knowing the will of God concerning them,
or who have ignorantly sinned.
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.
These Records Testify Of Christ
Saved Through Jesus Christ
And now, I would that
ye should 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.
Jesus Christ Is The Messiah
The prophets,
and the priests,
and the teachers,
did labor diligently,
exhorting
with all long-suffering
the people to diligence;
persuading them to
look forward unto the Messiah,
and believe in him to come.
Jesus Christ Is Our Redeemer
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.
Amen.
Rejoice In The Truth In Christ
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.
Ask In The Name Of Jesus Christ
Whatsoever thing ye shall ask in faith,
believing that ye shall receive
in the name of Christ,
ye shall receive it.
Redemption Through Christ
And there came a voice unto me, saying:
Enos, thy sins are forgiven thee,
and thou shalt be blessed.
And I, Enos, knew that God could not lie;
wherefore, my guilt was swept away.
And I said: Lord, how is it done?
And he said unto me:
Because of thy faith in Christ.
And many years pass away before
he shall manifest himself in the flesh;
wherefore, go to,
thy faith hath made thee whole.
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.
And because I have
thus lied unto God
I greatly fear lest
my case shall be awful.
Alive In Jesus Christ
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.
For we are made alive in Christ
because of our faith.
And we talk of Christ,
we rejoice in Christ,
we preach of Christ,
we prophesy of Christ,
and we write according to our prophecies,
that our children may know
to what source they may look
for a remission of their sins.
I Know Of Christ
Believest thou the scriptures?
They truly testify of Christ.
Behold, I say unto you that
none of the prophets have written,
nor prophesied, save
they have spoken concerning this Christ.
And this is not all—
it has been made manifest unto me,
for I have heard and seen;
and it also has been made manifest unto me
by the power of the Holy Ghost;
wherefore, I know
if there should be no atonement made
all mankind must be lost.
Reject Not The Good Word Of Christ
Behold, will ye reject these words?
Will ye reject the words of the prophets;
and will ye reject all the words
which have been spoken concerning Christ,
after so many have spoken concerning him;
and deny the good word of Christ,
and the power of God,
and the gift of the Holy Ghost,
and quench the Holy Spirit,
and make a mock of
the great plan of redemption,
which hath been laid for you?
Know ye not that if ye will do these things,
that the power of the redemption
and the resurrection, which is in Christ,
will bring you to stand with shame
and awful guilt before the bar of God?
