Alma 10
1 "Now as I said concerning the holy order, or this high priesthood, there were many which were ordained and became high priests of God;

2 And it was on account of the exceeding faith and repentance and their righteousness before God, they choosing to repent and work righteousness rather than to perish,

3 Therefore, they were called after this holy order and were sanctified, And their garments were washed white through the blood of the Lamb.

4 "Now they, after being sanctified by the Holy Ghost, having their garments made white, being pure and spotless before God, could not look upon sin save it were with abhorrence.

5 "And there were many, an exceeding great many, which were made pure and entered into the rest of the Lord their God.

6 "And now my brethren, I would that ye should humble yourselves before God and bring forth fruit meet for repentance, that ye may also enter into that rest;

7 Yea, humble yourselves even as the people in the days of Melchizedek, who was also a high priest after this same order which I have spoken, who also took upon him the high priesthood forever;

8 And it was this same Melchizedek to whom Abraham paid tithes, Yea, even our father Abraham paid tithes of one tenth part of all he possessed.

9 "Now these ordinances were given after this manner, that thereby the people might look forward on the Son of God, it being a type of His order, or it being His order;

10 And this that they might look forward to Him for a remission of their sins, that they might enter into the rest of the Lord.
