Lamoni had been taught by his father to believe in God even though they had no prescriptive beliefs of God requiring anything in particular of them. This is frequently the case—many people know of God and regardless of how much or little they know of Him their lives generally align with what they believe He would want them to do and be. Talk to practically anyone and if they believe in God and you ask them if they are living the way He would want they will tell you that they mostly are. Few people knowingly and blatantly live their lives in contradiction to whatever they believe about God.
