17 And the Lord will set his hand again the second time to

       restore his people from their lost and fallen state. Wherefore,

       he will proceed to do a marvelous work and a wonder among the

       children of men.

      2 Nephi 25:18

       18 Wherefore, he shall bring forth his words unto them, which

       words shall judge them at the last day, for they shall be given

       them for the purpose of convincing them of the true Messiah, who

       was rejected by them; and unto the convincing of them that they

       need not look forward any more for a Messiah to come, for there

       should not any come, save it should be a false Messiah which

       should deceive the people; for there is save one Messiah spoken

       of by the prophets, and that Messiah is he who should be rejected

       of the Jews.

      2 Nephi 25:19

       19 For according to the words of the prophets, the Messiah

       cometh in six hundred years from the time that my father left

       Jerusalem; and according to the words of the prophets, and also

       the word of the angel of God, his name shall be Jesus Christ, the

       Son of God.

      2 Nephi 25:20

       20 And now, my brethren, I have spoken plainly that ye cannot

       err. And as the Lord God liveth that brought Israel up out of

       the land of Egypt, and gave unto Moses power that he should heal

       the nations after they had been bitten by the poisonous serpents,

       if they would cast their eyes unto the serpent which he did raise

       up before them, and also gave him power that he should smite the

       rock and the water should come forth; yea, behold I say unto you,

       that as these things are true, and as the Lord God liveth, there

       is none other name given under heaven save it be this Jesus

       Christ, of which I have spoken, whereby man can be saved.

      2 Nephi 25:21

       21 Wherefore, for this cause hath the Lord God promised unto me

       that these things which I write shall be kept and preserved, and

       handed down unto my seed, from generation to generation, that the

       promise may be fulfilled unto Joseph, that his seed should never

       perish as long as the earth should stand.

      2 Nephi 25:22

       22 Wherefore, these things shall go from generation to

       generation as long as the earth shall stand; and they shall go

       according to the will and pleasure of God; and the nations who

       shall possess them shall be judged of them according to the words

       which are written.

      2 Nephi 25:23

       23 For we labor diligently to write, to persuade our children,

       and also our brethren, to believe in Christ, and to be reconciled

       to God; for we know that it is by grace that we are saved, after

       all we can do.

      2 Nephi 25:24

       24 And, notwithstanding we believe in Christ, we keep the law of

       Moses, and look forward with steadfastness unto Christ, until the

       law shall be fulfilled.

      2 Nephi 25:25

       25 For, for this end was the law given; wherefore the law hath

       become dead unto us, and we are made alive in Christ because of

       our faith; yet we keep the law because of the commandments.

      2 Nephi 25:26

       26 And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of

       Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our

       prophecies, that our children may know to what source they may

       look for a remission of their sins.

      2 Nephi 25:27

       27 Wherefore, we speak concerning the law that our children may

       know the deadness of the law; and they, by knowing the deadness

       of the law, may look forward unto that life which is in Christ,

       and know for what end the law was given. And after the law is

       fulfilled in Christ, that they need not harden their hearts

       against him when the law ought to be done away.

      2 Nephi 25:28

       28 And now behold, my people, ye are a stiffnecked people;

       wherefore, I have spoken plainly unto you, that ye cannot

       misunderstand. And the words which I have spoken shall stand as

       a testimony against you; for they are sufficient to teach any man

       the right way; for the right way is to believe in Christ and deny

       him not; for by denying him ye also deny the prophets and the

       law.

      2 Nephi 25:29

       29 And now behold, I say unto you that the right way is to

       believe in Christ, and deny him not; and Christ is the Holy One

       of Israel; wherefore ye must bow down before him, and worship him

       with all your might, mind, and strength, and your whole soul; and

       if ye do this ye shall in nowise be cast out.

      2 Nephi 25:30

       30 And, inasmuch as it shall be expedient, ye must keep the

       performances and ordinances of God until the law shall be

       fulfilled which was given unto Moses.

      2 Nephi 26 Chapter 26

      2 Nephi 26:1

       1 And after Christ shall have risen from the dead he shall show

       himself unto you, my children, and my beloved brethren; and the

       words which he shall speak unto you shall be the law which ye

       shall do.

      2 Nephi 26:2

       2 For behold, I say unto you that I have beheld that many

       generations shall pass away, and there shall be great wars and

       contentions among my people.

      2 Nephi 26:3

       3 And after the Messiah shall come there shall be signs given

       unto my people of his birth, and also of his death and

       resurrection; and great and terrible shall that day be unto the

       wicked, for they shall perish; and they perish because they cast

       out the prophets, and the saints, and stone them, and slay them;

       wherefore the cry of the blood of the saints shall ascend up to

       God from the ground against them.

      2 Nephi 26:4

       4 Wherefore, all those who are proud, and that do wickedly, the

       day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of Hosts, for

       they shall be as stubble.
