Alma 20 Rescue Your Brother and Sister


Ammon was sent by the Lord to free his brethren from prison.  King Lamoni went with him.  They met the king’s father, the king of all the Lamanites, along the road. After losing in a sword-fight with Ammon, he rejoices to find that Ammon doesn’t want to kill him. But even greater was his recognition of Ammon’s love for his son, King Lamoni, who Ammon had defended in the sword fight.  With a softened heart, the king is now ready to let Ammon free his brethren from prison in Middoni.  He is also ready to hear the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ.  Ammon will step aside and go another way as directed by the Spirit and Aaron will step in and do the teaching. 

When our brothers and sisters are in the prisons caused by sin, we must be willing and ready when the Spirit prompts to go to their rescue.
