[MUSIC PLAYING] Based on actual events as
recorded in the Book of Mormon: Another Testament
of Jesus Christ.
I have caused that ye should
assemble yourselves together, that I might declare unto
you that I can no longer be your teacher, nor your king.
But the Lord God
has commanded me that I should declare
unto you this day, that my son Mosiah is a
king and a ruler over you. Were it not for
these plates, which contain these records
and these commandments, we must have suffered
in ignorance, even at this present time, not
knowing the mysteries of God. The Lord commanded
our father Lehi to take them with him
into the wilderness. This is the sword
of Laban, which Nephi used to fulfill
the Lord's commandments. With this sword I did
stand against the armies of the Lamanites. As ye have kept my
commandments, if ye shall keep the commandments of my
son, or the commandments of God which shall be delivered
unto you by him, your enemies shall
have no power over you. But, O my people, beware lest
there shall arise contentions among you, and ye list
to obey the evil spirit. For behold, there is a wo
pronounced upon him who listeth to obey that spirit.
I would desire that
ye should consider on the blessed and happy
state of those that keep the commandments of God. For behold, they are blessed
in all things, both temporal and spiritual; and if they
hold out faithful to the end they are received into
heaven, that thereby they may dwell with God in a state
of never-ending happiness.
