It is about 544 to 421 BC in the land of Nephi. Enos prays to God for forgiveness. He then prays for the welfare of his people. Based on actual events as recorded in the Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ. [MUSIC PLAYING] Enos! Your father wishes to see you. I, Enos, knowing my father that he was a just man--for he taught me in his language, and also in the nurture and admonition of the Lord-- Take these plates. I received them from my brother Nephi, who commanded that I should write upon these plates. I now ask you to do the same.

And blessed be the name of my God for it.

And I will tell you of the wrestle which I had before God, before I received a remission of my sins.

[FLUTE MUSIC] Where are you going? Hunting. [SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

I went to hunt beasts in the forest; and the words which I had often heard my father speak concerning eternal life, and the joy of the saints, sunk deep into my heart. And my soul hungered; and I kneeled down before my Maker, and I cried unto him in mighty prayer and supplication for mine own soul. O Lord, Father, I am not worthy.

Enos, thy sins are forgiven thee, and thou shall be blessed.

Lord, how is it done? Because of thy faith in Christ, whom thou hast never before heard nor seen. And many years pass away before he shall manifest himself in the flesh; wherefore, go to, thy faith hath made thee whole.

Lord, what of my brethren--my people, the Nephites?

I have a desire for their welfare.

Please, Lord.

I will visit thy brethren according to their diligence in keeping my commandments. I have given unto them this land, and it is a holy land; and I curse it not save it be for the cause of iniquity.

Lord, I fear for my brethren the Lamanites--that my people, the Nephites, should fall into transgression and be destroyed.

Wouldst thou, Lord God, preserve a record of my people, that it might be brought forth at some future day unto the Lamanites, that, perhaps, they might be brought unto salvation?

I will bring these records forth unto the Lamanites in mine own due time.

I have been wrought upon by the power of God that I must preach and prophesy unto this people, and declare the word according to the truth which is in Christ. And I have declared it in all my days, and have rejoiced in it above that of the world.
