What do examples of conversion from the Book of Mormon teach me about the Atonement of Jesus Christ?
Scriptures to Ponder:
2 Nephi 4:17-35 (Nephi—from a “wretched man” to glorying in the Lord.)
Enos 1:1-8 (Enos repents; demonstrates the character of Christ.)
Mosiah 3:25; 4:2; 5:2-3 (The “views” of the people after conversion.)
Alma 22:15-18 (King Lamoni is converted; gives away sins to know God.)
Alma 23:5-7 (The people of Ammon are converted and never fall away.)
Alma 36:6-25 (Alma the younger recounts his conversion.)
3 Nephi 11:3-17 (Jesus appears to Nephites; they receive a witness of Him.)
4 Nephi 1:15-18 (Converts live after manner of happiness, with no contention.)
