a 2 Ne. 9:41

41 O then, my beloved brethren, come unto the Lord, the Holy One. Remember that his paths are righteous. Behold, the way for man is narrow, but it lieth in a straight course before him, and the keeper of the ^dgate is the Holy One of Israel; and he employeth no servant there; and there is none other way save it be by the gate; for he cannot be deceived, for the Lord God is his name.

a 3 Ne. 14:14 (13-14)

14 Because strait is the ^agate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

a D&C 22:4

4 Wherefore, enter ye in at the ^agate, as I have commanded, and seek not to counsel your God. Amen.

a D&C 43:7

7 For verily I say unto you, that he that is ordained of me shall come in at the ^bgate and be ordained as I have told you before, to teach those revelations which you have received and shall receive through him whom I have appointed.
