3 Nephi 11:16 16 And when they had all gone forth and had witnessed for themselves, they did cry out with one accord, saying: 

3 Nephi 11:17 17 Hosanna!  Blessed be the name of the Most High God!  And they did fall down at the feet of Jesus, and did worship him.

3 Nephi 11:18 18 And it came to pass that he spake unto Nephi (for Nephi was among the multitude) and he commanded him that he should come forth.

3 Nephi 11:19 19 And Nephi arose and went forth, and bowed himself before the Lord and did kiss his feet.

3 Nephi 11:20 20 And the Lord commanded him that he should arise.  And he arose and stood before him.

3 Nephi 11:21 21 And the Lord said unto him:  I give unto you power that ye shall baptize this people when I am again ascended into heaven.

3 Nephi 11:22 22 And again the Lord called others, and said unto them likewise; and he gave unto them power to baptize.  And he said unto them:  On this wise shall ye baptize; and there shall be no disputations among you.

3 Nephi 11:23 23 Verily I say unto you, that whoso repenteth of his sins through your words and desireth to be baptized in my name, on this wise shall ye baptize them—­Behold, ye shall go down and stand in the water, and in my name shall ye baptize them.

3 Nephi 11:24 24 And now behold, these are the words which ye shall say, calling them by name, saying: 

3 Nephi 11:25 25 Having authority given me of Jesus Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.  Amen.

3 Nephi 11:26 26 And then shall ye immerse them in the water, and come forth again out of the water.

3 Nephi 11:27 27 And after this manner shall ye baptize in my name; for behold, verily I say unto you, that the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost are one; and I am in the Father, and the Father in me, and the Father and I are one.

3 Nephi 11:28 28 And according as I have commanded you thus shall ye baptize.  And there shall be no disputations among you, as there have hitherto been; neither shall there be disputations among you concerning the points of my doctrine, as there have hitherto been.

3 Nephi 11:29 29 For verily, verily I say unto you, he that hath the spirit of contention is not of me, but is of the devil, who is the father of contention, and he stirreth up the hearts of men to contend with anger, one with another.

3 Nephi 11:30 30 Behold, this is not my doctrine, to stir up the hearts of men with anger, one against another; but this is my doctrine, that such things should be done away.

3 Nephi 11:31 31 Behold, verily, verily, I say unto you, I will declare unto you my doctrine.

3 Nephi 11:32 32 And this is my doctrine, and it is the doctrine which the Father hath given unto me; and I bear record of the Father, and the Father beareth record of me, and the Holy Ghost beareth record of the Father and me; and I bear record that the Father commandeth all men, everywhere, to repent and believe in me.
