Everyone wants advice about how to live their lives, right? What better source than Alma the Younger, former bad boy, Chief Judge, mega-missionary, and a recipient of the "hey, he got translated" prize?
After clarifying that resurrection is an incorruptible restoration of ourselves, good or bad, Alma give some advice to his wayward son, Coriantion, in Alma 41:14.
- be merciful to others;
- deal justly;
- judge righteously; and
- do good continually.
He says that if we do these things, we will get them in return in the resurrection. In his words, they will be "restored unto you again, and you will have good rewarded unto you again."
So, you want a nice afterlife? Alma's advice is to learn to spread niceness around during life and it will come back to you in the hereafter!
