“Our Work Is Not Finished”

Brant Gardner

It is interesting that Amulek's first response is to the immediate suffering of others, and only secondarily to the prospects of his own demise by a similar fate. Alma is calmly willing to be a martyr (as was Abinadi) should it be the Lord's will. However, he apparently has a witness of the spirit that the mission is not over. Therefore he knows that they will be spared this painful end.
