3 Nephi 11:28 And according as I have commanded
you thus shall ye baptize. And there shall be no disputations among you, as there have hitherto been;
neither shall there be disputations among you concerning the points of my
doctrine, as there have hitherto been.
3
Nephi 12:1 And
it came to pass that when Jesus had spoken these words unto Nephi, and to those
who had been called, (now the number of them who had been called, and received
power and authority to baptize, was twelve) and behold, he stretched forth his
hand unto the multitude, and cried unto them, saying: Blessed are ye if ye shall give heed unto the words of these
twelve whom I have chosen from among you to minister unto you, and to be your
servants; and unto them I have given power that they may baptize you with
water; and after that ye are baptized with water, behold, I will baptize you
with fire and with the Holy Ghost; therefore blessed are ye if ye shall believe
in me and be baptized, after that ye have seen me and know that I am.
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.

Nephi 14:7 Ask,
and it shall be given unto you; seek, and ye shall find; knock,
and it shall be opened unto you.
a) 24 Therefore, whoso heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, who built his house upon a rock—
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not, for it was founded upon a rock.
b) 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them not shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand—
a)
3 Nephi18: 12 And
I give unto you a commandment that ye shall do these things. And if ye shall always
do these things blessed are ye, for ye are built upon my rock.
b)
13 But whoso among
you shall do more or less than these are not built upon my rock, but are built upon a
sandy foundation; and when the rain descends, and the floods
come, and the winds blow, and beat upon them, they shall fall, and the gates of
hell are ready open to receive them.
20
And
whatsoever ye shall ask the
Father in my name, which is right, believing that ye shall receive, behold it shall be
given unto you.
24
Therefore,
hold up
your light that it may shine unto
the world. Behold I am the light which ye shall hold up—that which ye have seen
me do. Behold ye see that I have prayed unto the Father, and ye all have
witnessed.
34
And
I give you these commandments because of the disputations which have been among
you. And blessed
are ye
if
ye have no disputations among you.
