23And it came to pass after they had fasted and prayed for the space of two days and two nights, the limbs of Alma received their strength, and he stood up and began to speak unto them, bidding them to be of good comfort:
24For, said he, I have repented of my sins, and have been redeemed of the Lord; behold I am born of the Spirit.
25And the Lord said unto me: Marvel not that all mankind, yea, men and women, all nations, kindreds, tongues and people, must be born again; yea, born of God, changed from their carnal and fallen state, to a state of righteousness, being redeemed of God, becoming his sons and daughters;
26And thus they become new creatures; and unless they do this, they can in nowise inherit the kingdom of God.
27I say unto you, unless this be the case, they must be cast off; and this I know, because I was like to be cast off.
28Nevertheless, after wading through much tribulation, repenting nigh unto death, the Lord in mercy hath seen fit to snatch me out of an everlasting burning, and I am born of God.
