Analysis of What Samuel the Lamanite Said
When Christ is born, the night shall be filled with light,
and a new star appear in the skies, that is very bright.
Christ comes to redeem from death; both temporal and spiritual.
To all who truly repent, He will be loving and extremely meerciful.
In The Americas, when Christ dies, three day of darkness fall,
and rocks shall rend, and great upheavals of nature felt by all.
