СКАЧАТЬ the Gentiles.

      1 Nephi 10:12

       12 Yea, even my father spake much concerning the Gentiles, and

       also concerning the house of Israel, that they should be compared

       like unto an olive-tree, whose branches should be broken off and

       should be scattered upon all the face of the earth.

      1 Nephi 10:13

       13 Wherefore, he said it must needs be that we should be led

       with one accord into the land of promise, unto the fulfilling of

       the word of the Lord, that we should be scattered upon all the

       face of the earth.

      1 Nephi 10:14

       14 And after the house of Israel should be scattered they should

       be gathered together again; or, in fine, after the Gentiles had

       received the fulness of the Gospel, the natural branches of the

       olive-tree, or the remnants of the house of Israel, should be

       grafted in, or come to the knowledge of the true Messiah, their

       Lord and their Redeemer.

      1 Nephi 10:15

       15 And after this manner of language did my father prophesy and

       speak unto my brethren, and also many more things which I do not

       write in this book; for I have written as many of them as were

       expedient for me in mine other book.

      1 Nephi 10:16

       16 And all these things, of which I have spoken, were done as my

       father dwelt in a tent, in the valley of Lemuel.

      1 Nephi 10:17

       17 And it came to pass after I, Nephi, having heard all the

       words of my father, concerning the things which he saw in a

       vision, and also the things which he spake by the power of the

       Holy Ghost, which power he received by faith on the Son of

       God—and the Son of God was the Messiah who should come—I,

       Nephi, was desirous also that I might see, and hear, and know of

       these things, by the power of the Holy Ghost, which is the gift

       of God unto all those who diligently seek him, as well in times

       of old as in the time that he should manifest himself unto the

       children of men.

      1 Nephi 10:18

       18 For he is the same yesterday, to-day, and forever; and the

       way is prepared for all men from the foundation of the world, if

       it so be that they repent and come unto him.

      1 Nephi 10:19

       19 For he that diligently seeketh shall find; and the mysteries

       of God shall be unfolded unto them, by the power of the Holy

       Ghost, as well in these times as in times of old, and as well in

       times of old as in times to come; wherefore, the course of the

       Lord is one eternal round.

      1 Nephi 10:20

       20 Therefore remember, O man, for all thy doings thou shalt be

       brought into judgment.

      1 Nephi 10:21

       21 Wherefore, if ye have sought to do wickedly in the days of

       your probation, then ye are found unclean before the

       judgment-seat of God; and no unclean thing can dwell with God;

       wherefore, ye must be cast off forever.

      1 Nephi 10:22

       22 And the Holy Ghost giveth authority that I should speak these

       things, and deny them not.

      1 Nephi 11 Chapter 11

      1 Nephi 11:1

       1 For it came to pass after I had desired to know the things

       that my father had seen, and believing that the Lord was able to

       make them known unto me, as I sat pondering in mine heart I was

       caught away in the Spirit of the Lord, yea, into an exceedingly

       high mountain, which I never had before seen, and upon which I

       never had before set my foot.

      1 Nephi 11:2

       2 And the Spirit said unto me: Behold, what desirest thou?

      1 Nephi 11:3

       3 And I said: I desire to behold the things which my father saw.

      1 Nephi 11:4

       4 And the Spirit said unto me: Believest thou that thy father

       saw the tree of which he hath spoken?

      1 Nephi 11:5

       5 And I said: Yea, thou knowest that I believe all the words of

       my father.

      1 Nephi 11:6

       6 And when I had spoken these words, the Spirit cried with a

       loud voice, saying: Hosanna to the Lord, the most high God; for

       he is God over all the earth, yea, even above all. And blessed

       art thou, Nephi, because thou believest in the Son of the most

       high God; wherefore, thou shalt behold the things which thou hast

       desired.

      1 Nephi 11:7

       7 And behold this thing shall be given unto thee for a sign,

       that after thou hast beheld the tree which bore the fruit which

       thy father tasted, thou shalt also behold a man descending out of

       heaven, and him shall ye witness; and after ye have СКАЧАТЬ
