2 Ne. 2:15a

  15  And to bring about his eternal apurposes in the end of man, after he had created our first parents, and the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, and in fine, all things which are created, it must needs be that there was an opposition; even the forbidden fruit in opposition to the tree of life; the one being sweet and the other bitter.

Alma 42:26a

  26  And thus God bringeth about his great and eternal apurposes, which were prepared from the foundation of the world. And thus cometh about the salvation and the redemption of men, and also their destruction and misery.

3 Ne. 12:48a

  48  Therefore I would that ye should be aperfect even as I, or your Father who is in heaven is perfect.

3 Ne. 27:27d

  27  And know ye that ye shall be judges of this people, according to the judgment which I shall give unto you, which shall be just. Therefore, what manner of men ought ye to be? Verily I say unto you, even das I am.

D&C 29:43d

  43  And thus did I, the Lord God, appoint unto man the days of his probation—that by his natural death he might be raised in dimmortality unto eternal life, even as many as would believe;

Moses 1:39a

  39  For behold, this is my awork and my glory—to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.
