glad, for
great shall be your reward in heaven; for so persecuted they the
prophets who were before you.
3 Nephi 12:13
13 Verily, verily, I say unto you, I give unto you to be the
salt of the earth; but if the salt shall lose its savor wherewith
shall the earth be salted? The salt shall be thenceforth good for
nothing, but to be cast out and to be trodden under foot of men.
3 Nephi 12:14
14 Verily, verily, I say unto you, I give unto you to be the
light of this people. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.
3 Nephi 12:15
15 Behold, do men light a candle and put it under a bushel? Nay,
but on a candlestick, and it giveth light to all that are in the
house;
3 Nephi 12:16
16 Therefore let your light so shine before this people, that
they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in
heaven.
3 Nephi 12:17
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the prophets.
