[MUSIC PLAYING] Based on actual events as recorded in the Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ.

I have great anxiety for our people.

I am desirous for the welfare of their souls. Teach them the words of Isaiah, and speak unto them for their sakes.

The Lord has shown me that those who were at Jerusalem, from whence we came, have been slain and carried away captive. Nevertheless, the Lord has shown unto me that they should return again. And he will be merciful unto them, that when they shall come to the knowledge of their Redeemer, they shall be gathered together again to the lands of their inheritance. And there are many things which have been spoken by Isaiah which may be likened unto you, because ye are of the house of Israel. For the Lord God will fulfil his covenants which he has made unto his children; and for this cause the prophet has written these things. I have read these things that ye might know that he has covenanted with all the house of Israel. I know that ye know that our flesh must waste away and die; nevertheless, in our bodies we shall see God. I do not understand. How can our flesh waste away and die, but in our bodies we shall see God?

As death hath passed upon all men, there must needs be a power of resurrection, and the resurrection must needs come unto man by reason of the fall; and the fall came by reason of transgression; and because man became fallen they were cut off from the presence of the Lord. Wherefore, there must needs be an infinite atonement. O the wisdom of God, his mercy and grace! For behold, if the flesh should rise no more our spirits must become subject to that angel who fell from before the presence of the Eternal God, and became the devil, to rise no more. O how great the goodness of our God, who prepareth a way for our escape. Wherefore, death and hell must deliver up their dead, and hell must deliver up its captive spirits, and the grave must deliver up its captive bodies, and the bodies and the spirits of men will be restored one to the other; and it is by the power of the resurrection of the Holy One of Israel. He cometh into the world that he may save all men if they will hearken unto his voice; for behold, he suffereth the pains of all men, yea, the pains of every living creature, both men, women, and children. And he suffereth this that the resurrection might pass upon all men, that all might stand before him at the great and judgment day. And he commandeth all men that they must repent, and be baptized in his name, having perfect faith in the Holy One of Israel, or they cannot be saved in the kingdom of God.

Wo unto all those who die in their sins; for they shall return to God, and behold his face, and remain in their sins. Remember, to be carnally-minded is death, and to be spiritually-minded is life eternal.

I would speak unto you more; but on the morrow I will declare unto you the remainder of my words. Amen. Amen.
