Alma the Elder continues to teach us about covenants and becoming One with Christ. As He becomes man and like us, we can become One, Redeemed, with him. Mormon crafts this book as a master. We see parallels with Moses. Here are a few we cover today. 1. Cultural outsider 2. Ruler 3. People oppressed by greater civilization 4. Lead by God 5. Leader of his people 6. God's desire to be with His people 7. God creates Covenant Maybe through this, Mormon the editor, is showing us of God's desire to be near us, through Covenants. The covenant on Mount Sinai and our Covenant of Baptism. Both covenants of becoming His Holy People, changing our hearts, becoming His Children.
