15 Behold I say unto you, nay, they were not.
16 "And again I ask, were the bands of death broken? And the chains of hell which encircled them about, were they loosed?
17 I say unto you, yea, they were loosed, And their souls did expand and they did sing redeeming love;
18 And I say unto you that they are saved.
19 "And now I ask of you, on what conditions are they saved? Yea, what grounds had they to hope for salvation?
20 What is the cause of their being loosed from the bands of death, yea, and also the chains of hell?
21 "Behold, I can tell you; Did not my father Alma believe in the words which were delivered by the mouth of Abinadi? And was he not a holy prophet?
22 Did he not speak the word of God and my father Alma believed them?
23 And according to his faith there was a mighty change wrought in his heart;
24 Behold, I say unto you that this is all true.
25 "And behold, he preached the word unto your fathers, And a mighty change was also wrought in their hearts, And they humbled themselves and put their trust in the true and living God.
