Another theme of the lives of Alma and the sons of Mosiah is the theme of being carried away in the Spirit. Alma was overcome after the angel first appeared unto him (Mosiah 27:19). King Lamoni was also carried away on two separate occasions (Alma 18:42; 19:13). The queen and her servants were carried away (Alma 19:13,16). Ammon was overcome (Alma 19:14), and Lamoni's father was overcome at the teaching of Aaron (Alma 22:18). The extremes of sorrow for sin and eternal joy are, on occasions, too much for the mortal frame to endure. It is in these situations that the soul can be carried away. Nevertheless, this is not the way in which the greatest joy can be felt. While the mortal body cannot endure a fullness of joy, a resurrected body does not have this weakness, For man is spirit. The elements are eternal, and spirit and element, inseparably connected, receive a fulness of joy; And when separated, man cannot receive a fulness of joy (DC 93:33-4).
