What Did Angels Teach?
These messages were taught by Angels in the Book of Mormon.
They teach of God taking on flesh, becoming the infinite sacrifice for humanity.
Because of their message, the Nephites and Lamanites worshipped God in truth.
What message were you taught?
Does that truth match Nephite truth?

Angel message to Amulek About How many Gods exist:
There is only one God
Now Zeezrom saith: Is there more than one God?
And he answered: No.
Now Zeezrom saith unto him again: How knowest thou these things?
And he saith: An angel hath made them known unto me. Alma 8:81-84
Note: Amulek learns from an Angel about Jesus:
And again, I know that the things whereof he hath testified are true;
For behold I say unto you, that as the Lord liveth,
even so He hath sent His angel to make these things manifest unto me;
And this He hath done while this Alma hath dwelt at my house. Alma 8:15
Angel message to Amulek that the Atonement must be infinite:
An infinite sacrifice was required to atone for the world's sins. Alma 16:210
The Sacrifice would be the Son of God who is Infinite and Eternal Alma 16:215
Angel message To Nephi:
The Lamb of God is the Eternal Father and Savior of the world. 1 Nephi 3:62
God would yield himself as a man into hands of wicked men 1 Nephi 5:240
They would crucify God, the Holy One of Israel 2 Nephi 5:25
His human name would be Jesus 1 Nephi 3:127, 2 Nephi 11:36
Nephi learns from the Angel that God would:
Stoop down (condescend) 1 Nephi 3:56
Be born like us 1 Nephi 3:61
Let His love flow 1 Nephi 3:64
Would Be worshipped 1 Nephi 3:67
Would Be hated 1 Nephi 3:77
Give His word to us 1 Nephi 3:68
Show the Way back 1 Nephi 3:73
Heal the sick 1 Nephi 3:83
Be judged by the world 1 Nephi 3:86
Be slain for the sins of the world 1 Nephi 3:87
Bring his work back to Joseph's remnant 1 Nephi 3:181-192
Make known that the Lamb of God IS the eternal father 1 Nephi 3:193
Would make known there is ONE God and ONE shepherd over all the earth 1 Nephi 3:197
Notice the consistency:
Nephi learns it from the angel, teaches it to his people, Jesus states it to the Nephites:
By Angel:
For there is one God and one Shepherd over all the earth; 1 Nephi 3:197
Nephi teaches:
And there shall be one fold and one Shepherd; 1 Nephi 7:58
Jesus states:
This much did the Father command Me that I should tell unto them
That other sheep I have which are not of this fold; Them also I must bring,
And they shall hear My voice
And there shall be one fold and one Shepherd. 3 Nephi 7:16
Angel message To King Benjamin about God:
The Lord Omnipotent would come down and be Human Mosiah 1:97
He would suffer temptation and not yield Mosiah 1:100
Blood would come from every pore for his anguish over us Mosiah 1:101
He is the Creator and would be called Jesus Mosiah 1:102
He comes for salvation to occur Mosiah 1:103
Will say He has a devil and crucify Him. Mosiah 1:104
His blood atones for those who have died not knowing the will of God, or those who have ignorantly sinned. Mosiah 1:107
But Woe to those who know they rebel against him except they repent Mosiah 1:108
Jesus Summarizes these teachings:
That He is God of Israel and the whole Earth, was slain for the sins of the world. 3 Nephi 5:14
