b	John 5: 39. 39 ¶ ^aSearch the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which ^btestify of me. 1 Ne. 13: 25 (23-25). 25 Wherefore, these things go forth from the ^aJews in purity unto the ^bGentiles, according to the truth which is in God. 2 Ne. 29: 4 (4-6). 4 But thus saith the Lord God: O fools, they shall have a ^aBible; and it shall proceed forth from the ^bJews, mine ancient covenant people. And what ^cthank they the ^dJews for the Bible which they receive from them? Yea, what do the Gentiles mean? Do they remember the travails, and the labors, and the pains of the Jews, and their diligence unto me, in bringing forth salvation unto the Gentiles? D&C 20: 26. 26 Not only those who believed after he came in the ^ameridian of time, in the ^bflesh, but all those from the beginning, even as many as were before he came, who believed in the words of the holy prophets, who ^cspake as they were inspired by the ^dgift of the Holy Ghost, who truly ^etestified of him in all things, should have eternal life,
c	Mosiah 3: 20. 20 And moreover, I say unto you, that the time shall come when the ^aknowledge of a ^bSavior shall spread throughout ^cevery nation, kindred, tongue, and people.
