Alma 9
As I read these words of the people of Ammonihah I think that anyone today should be able to recognize that any city in the world could be completely destroyed within a day and left completely uninhabitable thanks to nuclear weaponry. That left me wondering if there was any prophetic warning to the people of Japan or Hiroshima and Nagasaki in particular that they were facing destruction. There must have been some who were warning that their cause was not just and soaking out against the continued course of war. I never considered before that Alma even tells the people how they will be destroyed (“the Lamanites… shall come in a time when you know not, and ye shall be visited with utter destruction.”)
