King Mosiah
made Alma the
leader of the
Church in
Zarahemla.
Alma then chose other men to help him teach
the Nephites.
Alma and King Mosiah worried because
unbelievers were making Church members
suffer because of their beliefs.
Alma had a
son named
Alma.
Alma the Younger did not believe the teachings
of his father and became a wicked man.
Alma the
Younger and
the four sons
of King
Mosiah
fought
against the
Church.
They persuaded many people to leave the
Church and become wicked.
Alma prayed that his
son would learn the
truth & repent.
Alma the Younger & the
sons of King Mosiah
continued trying to
destroy the Church.
One day an angel appeared to them. The angel
spoke in a loud voice that shook the ground.
The five young
men were so
frightened that
they fell
down. At first they
could not
understand what
the angel
was saying.
The angel had
come in answer to
the prayers of
Church members.
The angel asked
Alma the Younger
why he was
fighting against the
Church.
The ground shook as the angel told Alma the
Younger to stop trying to destroy the Church.
Alma the
Younger and
the sons of
Mosiah fell
down
again.
They had seen an angel, and they knew the
power of God had shaken the ground.
Alma the Younger was so astonished that he
could not speak. He became so weak that he
could not even move his hands.
The sons of Mosiah
carried Alma the
Younger to his father
& told him all that
had happened to them.
Alma was happy.
He knew that God had
answered his prayers.
Alma called many
people together
to see what the
Lord had done for
his son and for
the sons of
Mosiah.
Alma, along with other Church leaders, fasted
and prayed and asked God to help Alma the
Younger become strong again.
After two days and nights, Alma the Younger
was able to speak and move.
He told the
people he
had repented
of his sins
and God had
forgiven him.
He taught that everyone must become righteous
in order to enter God’s kingdom.
He also told of the great pain he had
suffered because of his sins.
Alma the Younger
was happy
because he had
repented and God
had forgiven him.
He knew God
loved him.
Alma the Younger and the sons of King Mosiah
began to teach the truth throughout the land,
telling everyone what they had seen and heard.
They tried to undo the
wrong they had done.
They explained the
scriptures to the
people and taught
them about Jesus
Christ.
God blessed Alma the Younger and the
sons of Mosiah as they taught the
gospel. Many people listened to them
and believed.
1. How do you think Alma’s
father felt when his son did wicked things?
He was sad & worried. Alma
prayed that his son would
learn the truth & repent.
2. How did Jesus show his love
for Alma the Younger?
Jesus commanded him
to repent. By atoning for
all of our sins, Alma
could repent and be
forgiven.

church members show their love for Alma?
They prayed &
fasted for his
recovery.
4. After Alma the Younger repented,
Jesus forgave him. What did Alma do after he
repented?
He began to teach
the truth through-out
the land. He taught
them about Jesus
Christ.
Jesus Christ
loved &
forgave Alma
the Younger
when he
repented for
what he did
wrong.
Jesus Christ always loves us & will forgive us
when we repent of what we do wrong.
•How do you feel
when someone
pushes you down
or hurts you?

you or calls you
names?

When someone
treats us unkindly
or hurts us, we
usually feel angry
or hurt inside.
How do you feel when you are angry?

angry feeling
make you want
to do?
We Should Forgive Others
Jesus told us that we
should forgive others.
It will not always be
easy to do.
He wants us to follow
His example.
Ask yourself, “What
would Jesus do?”
What Does It Mean to Forgive?
When the
Savior forgives
us, He cancels
any required
punishment
for a sin that we
have
committed, if
we repent.
He helps us to live more righteously.
We Should Forgive Others
When we forgive others, we love them and do
not have bad feelings for them because of
any wrong they have done to us.
Let’s read Isaiah
1:18 to learn more
about how we can
be forgiven of our sins.
What do you think this verse means?
White is a color often used to represent purity.
Let’s read D & C 64:9 to learn what Heavenly Father wants us to do when we get hurt by someone else.
What must we do to follow Jesus when others hurt us?
FORGIVE THEM & LOVE THEM !!
To Be Loving & Forgiving, We Must:
Get rid of the feeling
of anger & the desire
to take revenge on
the other person.
Forget the
unkindness.
Treat the person with
kindness & love.
