out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented
with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the

receiveth the mark of his name.

for charity never faileth. Wherefore, cleave unto charity, which is the

whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well with him.
48 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, pray unto the Father with all the energy
of heart, that ye may be filled with this love, which he hath bestowed upon
all who are true followers of his Son, Jesus Christ; that ye may become the
sons of God; that when he shall appear we shall be like him, for we shall see

is pure. Amen.

Alma 48
14 Now the Nephites were taught to defend themselves against their enemies,
even to the shedding of blood if it were necessary; yea, and they were also
taught never to give an offense, yea, and never to raise the sword except it
were against an enemy, except it were to preserve their lives.
15 And this was their faith, that by so doing God would prosper them in the
land, or in other words, if they were faithful in keeping the commandments of
God that he would prosper them in the land; yea, warn them to flee, or to
prepare for war, according to their danger;
16 And also, that God would make it known unto them whither they should go
to defend themselves against their enemies, and by so doing, the Lord would
deliver them; and this was the faith of Moroni, and his heart did glory in it;
not in the shedding of blood but in doing good, in preserving his people, yea,
in keeping the commandments of God, yea, and resisting iniquity.
17 Yea, verily, verily I say unto you, if all men had been, and were, and
ever would be, like unto Moroni, behold, the very powers of hell would have
been shaken forever; yea, the devil would never have power over the hearts of
the children of men.
Alma 8:
31 And they had power given unto them, insomuch that they could not be
confined in dungeons; neither was it possible that any man could slay them;
nevertheless they did not exercise their power until they were bound in bands
and cast into prison. Now, this was done that the Lord might show forth his
power in them.
Moses 7:
13 And so great was the faith of Enoch that he led the people of God, and
their enemies came to battle against them; and he spake the word of the Lord,
and the earth trembled, and the mountains fled, even according to his command;
and the rivers of water were turned out of their course; and the roar of the
lions was heard out of the wilderness; and all nations feared greatly, so
powerful was the word of Enoch, and so great was the power of the language
which God had given him.
DC 45:
66 And it shall be called the New Jerusalem, a land peace, a city of
refuge, a place of safety for the saints of the Most High God;

also shall be there, insomuch that the wicked will not come unto it, and it
shall be called Zion.
68 And it shall come to pass among the wicked, that every man that will not
take his sword against his neighbor must needs flee unto Zion for safety.
69 And there shall be gathered unto it out of every nation under heaven;
and it shall be the only people that shall not be at war one with another.
70 And it shall be said among the wicked; Let us not go up to battle
against Zion, for the inhabitants of Zion are terrible; wherefore we cannot
stand.
71 And it shall come to pass that the righteous shall be gathered out from
among all nations, and shall come to Zion, singing with songs of everlasting
joy.

26 Wherefore, I, Moroni, am commanded to write these things that evil may
be done away, and that the time may come that Satan may have no power upon the

continually, that they may come unto the fountain of all righteousness and be
saved.

her that halteth, and gather her that was driven out; and I will get them
praise and fame in every land where they have been put to shame.
Jeremiah 31:34
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his
brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of
them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their
iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Daniel 7:27
27 And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the
whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High,
whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and
obey him.
