Alma 18

The gospel is simple and the three pillars of eternity can bridge the gap between perceived divisions.

There is truth and though the Lamanites had passed down the tradition that "whatsoever they did was right" the truths that

1) God is the Creator of Heaven and Earth and He created man in His own image and know the thoughts and intents of His creations

2) That a Fall from God was necessary - introducing the choice between wickedness and righteousness

3) But before the world was even created, a plan for Redemption was put into play making possible the Atonement of Jesus Christ for each who choose Him.

These simple truths were the beginnings that made it possible for thousands of Lamanites to be converted.
