“The People of Ammon Did Not Fear Their Words”

Bryan Richards

The generosity of the people of Ammon is not surprising, neither is their courage. Their conviction and devotion never faltered, and they were firm in the faith of Christ, even unto the end…and they never did look upon death with any degree of terror, for their hope and views of Christ (Alma 27:27-8). Their courage is in perfect harmony with the counsel from the scriptures.

’Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings.’ (Isa 5:7)

’And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.’ (Matt 10:28)

’I fear not what man can do; for perfect love casteth out all fear.’ (Moroni 8:16)
