behold, as in Adam, or by nature, they fall, even so the blood of

       Christ atoneth for their sins.

      Mosiah 3:17

       17 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.

      Mosiah 3:18

       18 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.

      Mosiah 3:19

       19 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.

      Mosiah 3:20

       20 And moreover, I say unto you, that the time shall come when

       the knowledge of the Savior shall spread throughout every nation,

       kindred, tongue, and people.

      Mosiah 3:21

       21 And behold, when that time cometh, none shall be found

       blameless before God, except it be little children, only through

       repentance and faith on the name of the Lord God Omnipotent.

      Mosiah 3:22

       22 And even at this time, when thou shalt have taught thy people

       the things which the Lord thy God hath commanded thee, even then

       are they found no more blameless in the sight of God, only

       according to the words which I have spoken unto thee.

      Mosiah 3:23

       23 And now I have spoken the words which the Lord God hath

       commanded me.

      Mosiah 3:24

       24 And thus saith the Lord: They shall stand as a bright

       testimony against this people, at the judgment day; whereof they

       shall be judged, every man according to his works, whether they

       be good, or whether they be evil.

      Mosiah 3:25

       25 And if they be evil they are consigned to an awful view of

       their own guilt and abominations, which doth cause them to shrink

       from the presence of the Lord into a state of misery and endless

       torment, from whence they can no more return; therefore they have

       drunk damnation to their own souls.

      Mosiah 3:26

       26 Therefore, they have drunk out of the cup of the wrath of

       God, which justice could no more deny unto them than it could

       deny that Adam should fall because of his partaking of the

       forbidden fruit; therefore, mercy could have claim on them no

       more forever.

      Mosiah 3:27

       27 And their torment is as a lake of fire and brimstone, whose

       flames are unquenchable, and whose smoke ascendeth up forever and

       ever. Thus hath the Lord commanded me. Amen.

      Mosiah 4 Chapter 4

      Mosiah 4:1

       1 And now, it came to pass that when king Benjamin had made an

       end of speaking the words which had been delivered unto him by

       the angel of the Lord, that 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.

      Mosiah 4:2

       2 And they had viewed themselves in their own carnal state, even

       less than the dust of the earth. 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.

      Mosiah 4:3

       3 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 who should come, according to the words which king

       Benjamin had spoken unto them.

      Mosiah 4:4

       4 And king Benjamin again opened his mouth and began to speak

       unto them, saying: My friends and my brethren, my kindred and my

       people, I would again call your attention, that ye may hear and

       understand the remainder of my words which I shall speak unto

       you.

      Mosiah 4:5

       5 For behold, if the knowledge of the goodness of God at this

       time has awakened you to a sense of your nothingness, and your

       worthless and fallen state—

      Mosiah 4:6

       6 I say unto you, if ye have come to a knowledge of the goodness

       of God, and his matchless power, and his wisdom, and his

       patience, and his long-suffering towards the children of men; and

       also, the atonement which has been prepared from the foundation

       of the world, that thereby salvation might come to him that

       should put his trust in the Lord, and should be diligent in

       keeping his commandments, and continue in the faith even unto the

       end of his life, I mean the life of the mortal body—

      Mosiah 4:7

       7 I say, that this is the man who receiveth salvation, through

       the atonement which was prepared from the foundation of the world

       for all mankind, which ever were since the fall of Adam, or who

       are, or who ever shall be, even unto the end of the world.

      Mosiah 4:8

       8 And this is the means whereby salvation cometh. And there is

       none other salvation save this which hath been spoken of;
