Matthew 7:12

"Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them; for this is the law and the prophets."

The golden rule. Treat others how you want to be treated.

Ether 13:22

"And it came to pass that Coriantumr repented not, neither his household, neither the people; and the wars ceased not; and they sought to kill Ether, but he fled from before them and hid again in the cavity of the rock."

This is right after Ether prophesies to Coriantumr that if he does not repent his whole civilization will be destroyed except for him. He alone will survive to witness the death of everyone he knows. Coriantumr does not repent, and sadly this prophecy indeed comes to pass.

Ether 12:41

"And now, I would commend you to seek this Jesus of whom the prophets and apostles have written, that the grace of God the Father, and also the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost, which beareth record of them, may be and abide in you forever. Amen."

Moroni, realizing that his time in running out, asks readers to seek Jesus.  Moroni knows the true source of happiness and he wants everyone to find it. By following Christ, we can have God's grace with us.

Ether 10:33

"And in the days of Com there began to be robbers in the land; and they adopted the old plans, and administered oaths after the manner of the ancients, and sought again to destroy the kingdom."

This part of Ether is all about how King after King and war after war the people still remained in wickedness. The secret oaths came back and they threw out the prophets. It's sad to see the decay of righteousness and witness a nation being destroyed because of pride, selfishness, and the desire to get gain.

Ether 9:22

"And after he had anointed Coriantum to reign in his stead he lived four years, and he saw peace in the land; yea, and he even saw the Son of Righteousness, and did rejoice and glory in his day; and he died in peace."

This verse stood out to me today because it sounds so wonderful! I would love to be able to say that I helped establish peace in the land because of my righteousness.  It would be so special and amazing to have the privilege of seeing the Son of Righteousness and beholding His glory while on the earth. It would be so nice to die in peace. This is the goal and it makes following the gospel each day worth it!

Ether 4:12

"And whatsoever thing persuadeth men to do good is of me; for good cometh of none save it be of me. I am the same that leadeth men to all good; he that will not believe my words will not believe me - that I am; and he that will not believe me will not believe the Father who sent me, For behold, I am the Father, I am the light, and the life, and the truth of the world."

All good things come of Christ. Those who don't believe Him will not believe anything of Him. Those who do not believe His words do not really believe Him.  They do not know that He is the truth, light, and life of the world, and that He is the Father.

Ether 2:25

"...Therefore what will ye that I should prepare for you that ye may have light when ye are swallowed up in the depths of the sea?"

Here the Lord is asking the brother of Jared what he wants Him to do. God doesn't just give us answers sometimes. We had to figure things out for ourselves and then ask if it is right. He wants us to use our agency and choose ourselves so we can decide if we want to follow Him.
