"For behold, this life
is the time for men to prepare to meet
God; yea, behold the day of this life is
the day for men to perform their labors. And now, as I said unto
you before, as ye have had so many
witnesses, therefore, I beseech of you
that ye do not procrastinate the day of your repentance until the
end; for after this day of life, which
is given us to prepare for eternity,
behold, if we do not improve our time while in this life, then
cometh the night of darkness wherein
there can be no labor performed. Ye cannot
say, when ye are brought to that awful crisis, that I will repent,
that I will return to my God. Nay, ye
cannot say this; for that same spirit
which doth possess your bodies at the time that ye go out of this
life, that same spirit will have power
to possess your body in that eternal
world." -- Alma Ch. 16 (34:32-34/Utah)
