My father wrote:

"After my vision of the destruction of Jerusalem, I went out and told the people of my city what I'd seen and heard. After hearing of my marvelous vision concerning the destruction of Jerusalem, the people made fun of me, for it told them of their wickedness. It also told them of a Messiah who would come down to redeem the world.

When they heard all this, they became angry and said they'd kill me, just as their fathers had killed prophets of old."

Now, I Nephi will show you that the Lord's tender mercy protects those He has chosen because of their faith, for their faith gives them the power to be delivered.
