[STRING MUSIC PLAYING] Based on actual events as
recorded in the Book of Mormon: Another Testament
of Jesus Christ.
Here are the waters of Mormon. And now, as ye are desirous
to come into the fold of God, and to be called
His people, and are willing to bear one
another's burdens, that they may be
light; yea, and are willing to mourn with those
that mourn; and comfort those that stand
in need of comfort, and to stand as witnesses of God
at all times and in all things, and in all places that ye
may be in, even until death, that ye may be redeemed of
God, and be numbered with those of the first resurrection,
that ye may have eternal life--
Now I say unto you, if this be
the desire of your hearts, what have you against being baptized,
as a witness that ye have entered into a covenant with
Him, that ye will serve Him and keep His commandments,
that He may pour out His Spirit more abundantly upon you? Alma, this is the
desire of our hearts.
Helam, I baptize thee, having
authority from the Almighty God, as a testimony
that ye have entered into a covenant with
Him to serve Him until you are dead as to
the mortal body; and may the Spirit of the Lord
be poured out upon you; and may He grant unto
you eternal life, through the
redemption of Christ, whom He has prepared from
the foundation of the world. [WOODWIND MUSIC PLAYING]
