Alma 56


Helaman led his 2000 sons into battle.  We know them as the “Strippling Warriors.”  When their first battle was to commence, Helaman shouted this question: “What say ye, my sons, will ye go against them to battle.”  And their response was, “Father, behold our God is with us, and he will not suffer that we should fall; then let us go forth.”  After the battle, Helaman said, “Now they never had fought, yet they did not fear death; and they did think more upon the liberty of their fathers than they did upon their lives; yea, they been taught by their mothers, that if they did not doubt, God would deliver them.  “And they rehearsed unto me the words of their mothers, saying: ‘We do not doubt our mothers knew it.’”
