Charity in Action

Alma 35:9

"And he breathed out many threatenings against him. And now the people of Ammon did not fear their words; therefore they did not cast them out, but they did receive all the poor of the Zoramites that came over unto them; and they did nourish them, and did clothe them, and did give unto them lands for their inheritance; and they did administer unto them according to their wants."

Even though some wicked Zoramites wanted the people of Ammon to cast out the Zoramite believers, they would not do it. Instead they embraced the people, clothed them, fed them, nourished them, housed them, and loved them! What a wonderful welcome! The people of Ammon were true followers of Christ and lived their lives with charity.
