THE BOOK OF MORMON 1908


THE SHORT BOOK OF MORMON

Mos 3:7  And now, these are the words which King Benjamin desired
of them; and therefore he said unto them, Ye have spoken the words that
I desired; and the covenant which ye have made, is a righteous covenant.

Mos 3:8  And now, because of the covenant which ye have made,
ye shall be called the children of Christ, his sons, and his daughters:

Mos 3:9  For behold, this day he hath spiritually begotten you;
for ye say that your hearts are changed through faith on his name; therefore,
ye are born of him, and have become his sons and his daughters.

Mos 3:10  And under this head ye are made free; and there is no
other head whereby ye can be made free.

Mos 3:11  There is no other name given, whereby salvation cometh,
therefore, I would that ye should take upon you the name of Christ, all
you that have entered into the covenant with God, that ye should be obedient
unto the end of your lives.
These are the words which King Benjamin desired of them.   
He said unto them, "Ye have spoken the words that I desired,  and
the covenant which ye have made, is a righteous covenant.  Because
of the covenant which ye have made, ye shall be called the children of
Christ, his sons, and his daughters,  for behold, this day he hath
spiritually begotten you.  Ye say that your hearts are changed through
faith on his name.    There is no other name given, whereby
salvation cometh.   I would that ye should take upon you the
name of Christ, all you that have entered into the covenant with God, 
ye should be obedient unto the end of your lives.

[Mosiah 3:7-9,11]
Mos 3:12  And it shall come to pass that whosoever
doeth this, shall be found at the right hand of God, for he shall know
the name by which he is called; for he shall be called by the name of Christ.

Mos 3:13  And now, it shall come to pass that whosoever shall
not take upon them the name of Christ, must be called by some other name;
therefore, he findeth himself on the left hand of God.

Mos 3:14  And I would that ye should remember also, that this
is the name that I said I should give unto you, that never should be blotted
out, except it be through transgression;

Mos 3:15  Therefore, take heed that ye do not transgress, that
the name be not blotted out of your hearts.

Mos 3:16  I say unto you, I would that ye should remember to retain
the name written always in your hearts, that ye are not found on the left
hand of God, but that ye hear and know the voice by which ye shall be called,
and also, the name by which he shall call you:

Mos 3:17  For, how knoweth a man the master whom he has not served,
and who is a stranger unto him, and is far from the thoughts and intents
of his heart?

Mos 3:18  And again: Doth a man take an ass which belongeth to
his neighbor, and keep him?

Mos 3:19  I say unto you, Nay; he will not even suffer that he
shall feed among his flocks, but will drive him away, and cast him out.

Mos 3:20  I say unto you, that even so shall it be among you,
if ye know not the name by which ye are called.

 
Mos 3:21  Therefore, I would that ye should be steadfast and immovable,
always abounding in good works, that Christ, the Lord God Omnipotent, may
seal you his, that you may be brought to heaven, that ye may have everlasting
salvation and eternal life, through the wisdom, and power, and justice,
and mercy of him, who created all things, in heaven and in earth, who is
God above all. Amen.

Getting better I hope. :-)
