How were the Nephites and Lamanites able to have a society without contention?

Thomas R. Valletta

According to verse 2, there was “no contention” because everyone was “converted unto the Lord.” In verse 13, “no contention” is connected with “mighty miracles,” perhaps as an outcome. Thus, in addition to peace, another blessing appears to come with conversion to the gospel and having the love of God in one’s heart: mighty miracles.
