Truth will make you free

Alma asks Korihor what evidence supports his claims, and Abinadi testifies of the Messiah. Alma’s counsel to Helaman also connects wisdom in youth with keeping God’s commandments.

Read and consider

Chapter 41, All Things Denote There Is a God, includes Alma 30. Chapter 24, Abinadi Before King Noah, includes Mosiah 11–17. Alma 37:35 comes from Alma’s counsel to his son Helaman, which is not part of a Go and Do chapter.

Quoted Book of Mormon

And now what evidence have ye that there is no God, or that Christ cometh not? I say unto you that ye have none, save it be your word only.

Alma 30:40

For behold, did not Moses prophesy unto them concerning the coming of the Messiah, and that God should redeem his people? Yea, and even all the prophets who have prophesied ever since the world began—have they not spoken more or less concerning these things?

Mosiah 13:33

O, remember, my son, and learn wisdom in thy youth; yea, learn in thy youth to keep the commandments of God.

Alma 37:35
