Alma’s words had struck a telling blow in the mind of Zeezrom. He was alarmed by the words that when the judgment came it would be so terrible for the wicked that they would be so terrified by the thought of facing God in judgment they would want the mountains to cover them up. Alma continues:
“But this cannot be; we must come forth and stand before him in his glory, and in his power, and in his might, majesty, and dominion, and acknowledge to our everlasting shame that all his judgments are just; that he is just in all his works, and that he is merciful unto the children of men, and that he has all power to save every man that believeth on his name and bringeth forth fruit meet for repentance.”
