After 420 years since the time of Christ's coming, Moroni is finishing the records with his last thoughts before sealing then away (v1-2). His advice includes remembering the mercy if The Lord, and pondering on the words of the scripture when we read so that the truth can be manifested to us by the Holy Ghost (v3-5). We will know of a during the power of God if we accept His gift of knowledge, and we accept this knowledge by reading His words from the scriptures and putting out faith in Him (v6-10).
Other gifts he gives to us include healing others, performing miracles, speaking in tongues, interpreting languages, and others all through the power of the Spirit of Christ (v11-17). Every good gift comes from Christ who is unchanging and will save us from despair if we have faith, hope, charity, and belief (v18-22). Because we have a promise from The Lord to have the ability to perform all things if we have faith, we know that our unbelief is the only cause of miracles craving among the children of men (v23-25).
Those who die in their sins cannot be saved, and we know this truth through the words of Moroni, who cries to us from his time to listen to his prophecies that will be fulfilled (v26-29). Moroni wants is to grab hold to the good gifts of God and strengthen ourselves against the adversary (v30-31). We can strengthen ourselves by being perfected in Christ through His grace, and we can deny all ungodliness so that we are sanctified and fulfill our covenant so we may live in the kingdom of heaven (v32-34). Good bye Moroni, see you in the paradise of God.
