This episode is part 18 in a series going through the story of the Book of Mormon.
This episode covers chapters 15-18 of the book of Mosiah. This is part of the record that Ammon read.
This record continues Abinadi's sermon to King Noah and his priests. When Abinadi finishes, the king sentences him to die. One of the priests was a young man named Alma who pleads for the king to spare Abinadi. This stunt resulted in Alma being cast out of the court and ultimately a fugitive for his life.
King Noah binds Abinadi in prison for three days, then executes him by burning him. The excommunicated priest Alma writes Abinadi's sermon and uses it to disciple about 450 people in secret. Alma starts what he calls the "Church of Christ" by baptizing converts in "the waters of Mormon." Remember, this is supposed to be almost 150 years before Christ.
