d in that day ye shall be hunted, and ye shall be taken by
the hand of your enemies, and then ye shall suffer, as I suffer,
the pains of death by fire.
Mosiah 17:19

people. O God, receive my soul.
Mosiah 17:20
20 And now, when Abinadi had said these words, he fell, having
suffered death by fire; yea, having been put to death because he
would not deny the commandments of God, having sealed the truth
of his words by his death.
Mosiah 18
Chapter 18
Mosiah 18:1
1 And now, it came to pass that Alma, who had fled from the
servants of king Noah, repented of his sins and iniquities, and
went about privately among the people, and began to teach the
words of Abinadi--
Mosiah 18:2
2 Yea, concerning that which was to come, and also concerning
the resurrection of the dead, and the redemption of the people,
which was to be brought to pass through the power, and
sufferings, and death of Christ, and his resurrection and
ascension into heaven.
Mosiah 18:3
3 And as many as would hear his word he did teach. And he

Mosiah 18:5
5 Now, there was in Mormon a fountain of pure water, and Alma
resorted thither, there being near the water a thicket of small

Mosiah 18:6

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

Mosiah 18:9
9 Yea, and are willing to mourn with those that mourn; yea,
