...Just as surely as this director did bring our fathers...to the promised land, shall the words of Christ, if we follow their course, carry us beyond this vale of sorrow into a far better land of promise. Oh my son, do not let us be slothful because of the easiness of the way; ... The way is prepared, and if we will look we may live forever. ... See that ye look to God and live. Go unto this people and declare the word, and be sober.
- Alma 37: 45-47
