2 Would you want to bury your weapons if you knew you were in danger of attack?

3 The people of Anti-Nephi-Lehi knew their enemies were planning to kill them, but they had made a solemn covenant with Heavenly Father that they would not fight.

4 A gospel covenant is a binding agreement or promise between Heavenly Father and His children.

5 We will learn the story of the Anti-Nephi- Lehies to discover why they made this covenant and how they kept their promise.

6 The Anti- Nephi-Lehies Lesson 19: The Anti-Nephi-Lehies, Primary 4: Book of Mormon, (1997),64 The People of Ammon, Book of Mormon Stories, Ch. 26

7 The sons of Mosiah taught the gospel to the Lamanites. Thousands of Lamanites repented and joined the Church.

8 Those Lamanites who joined the Church called themselves Anti-Nephi-Lehies, or the people of Ammon. They were good, hardworking people.

9 The Lamanites who did not repent were angry with the people of Ammon and prepared to fight them.

10 The people of Ammon knew that the wicked Lamanites would come to kill them but decided not to fight back. They had repented of killing.

11 They buried their weapons deep in the ground and promised God they would never kill again.

12 When the wicked Lamanites came and began killing them, they bowed to the ground and prayed.

13 Seeing that the people of Ammon would not fight back, many of the wicked Lamanites stopped killing them.

14 They threw down their weapons and joined the people of Ammon. The Lamanites were sorry that they had killed. They would not fight anymore.

15 More Lamanites came to kill the people of Ammon. They still would not fight back, and many were killed.

16 Not wanting the people he loved to be destroyed, Ammon prayed for help. The Lord told him to take his people and leave the land.

17 The Nephites in Zarahemla gave Ammon and his people the land of Jershon and protected them. They became friends.

18

19 What were the names of the four sons of Mosiah? Let s read Mosiah 27:34

20 Why did the sons of Mosiah want to preach the gospel among the Lamanites? Let s read Mosiah 28:3

21 Why did the Nephites in Zarahemla laugh when the sons of Mosiah told them of their plans? Let s read Alma 26:23 25

22 How were the Lamanites converted to Jesus Christ? Let s read Alma 23:5 6. How many of these converts remained strong in their faith in Jesus Christ?

23 What can we do to keep our faith in Jesus Christ strong?

24 Why did the Lamanite converts change their name? Let s read Alma 23:16 17

25 Later, when these converts moved to the land of Jershon, by what name were they known? Let s read Alma 27:26

26 What name have you made a covenant to take upon yourself? Let s read Mosiah 5:7 8

27 Why were the Anti-Nephi- Lehies determined to never again fight their enemies? Let s read Alma 24:10 13, 16

28 What covenant did the Anti- Nephi-Lehies make with the Lord as they buried their weapons? Let s read Alma 24:17 18

29 How committed were the Anti-Nephi-Lehies to keeping this covenant? Let s read Alma 24:19 22

30 What commandments have we covenanted to obey?

31 What happened to many of the Lamanite warriors when they saw that the people of God would not fight but lay down to be killed? Let s read Alma 24:24 27

32 How can our example help others want to join the Church? How can our example of keeping our covenants help others want to keep their covenants?

33 What attitude toward their enemies did the Anti-Nephi- Lehies show by burying their weapons? Let s read Alma 26:32 33

34 Why do you think people who are truly converted to the gospel of Jesus Christ have love and concern for everyone, including their enemies?

35 Why were the Anti- Nephi- Lehies not afraid to die? Let s read Alma 27:28

36 Why did the king of the Anti- Nephi-Lehies say he and his people would be slaves to the Nephites? Let s read Alma 27:4 8

37 What can we do to become more like the Anti-Nephi- Lehies in honoring our covenants?

38 We believe in being honest, true, chaste, benevolent, virtuous, and in doing good to all men; indeed, we may say that we follow the admonition of Paul We believe all things, we hope all things, we have endured many things, and hope to be able to endure all things. If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things. Enr. Act. 2 wav wma mp3

39 Did the people of Ammon live by the principles in the Thirteenth Article of Faith? How will living these principles help us keep our covenants? Enr. Act. 2

40 I testify that as members of Christ s church, we have made sacred covenants. We must honor our covenants if we want to receive the promised blessings.
