Based on actual events as recorded in the Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ. [MUSIC PLAYING]

Father. Shiblon.

Son, I trust I shall have great joy in you, because of your steadiness and your faithfulness unto God; for as you have commenced in your youth to look to the Lord your God, even so I hope that you will continue in keeping His commandments. Blessed is he that endureth to the end. I know, Father, and I will. Sit.

I know that you were in bonds. I know that you were stoned for the word's sake. And ye did bear all of these things with patience because the Lord was with you. Remember that as much as ye shall put your trust in God even so much ye shall be delivered out of your trials, and your troubles, and your afflictions, and ye shall be lifted up at the last day. There is no other way or means whereby man can be saved, only in and through Christ. And now, as ye have begun to teach the word even so I would that ye should continue to teach; and I would that ye would be diligent and temperate in all things. Use boldness, but not overbearance; see that ye bridle all your passions, that ye may be filled with love; see that ye refrain from idleness. I will do my best. May the Lord bless your soul and receive you at the last day into His kingdom, to sit down in peace.

Now go, my son, and teach the word unto this people.

Please send in your brother.
