“Alma Baptizes Many People,” Liahona, April 2016, 76–78 Book of Mormon Stories Alma Baptizes Many People From Mosiah 16–18. Abinadi was a prophet. He taught people to believe in Jesus and to stop doing bad things. A wicked king named Noah was angry with Abinadi. Noah didn’t want to repent. A man named Alma believed Abinadi. He ran away and hid from the angry king. He felt sorry for doing wrong things, and he repented, just as Abinadi had taught. Many people came to hear Alma teach about Jesus Christ. Alma taught that if they repented and followed Jesus, they could be baptized. The people clapped with joy. They promised to comfort others. They promised to love God and tell other people about Him. They were ready to be baptized. One by one, Alma baptized the people. They were very happy to be part of Jesus’s Church. When we are baptized, we make the same promises that Alma’s people did. And we become part of Jesus’s Church too!
