His coming to earth
And now I say unto you that well doth the Lord judge of your iniquities; well doth he cry unto this people, by the voice of his angels: Repent ye, repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Alma 10:20–21
Angels speak for the Lord in the first person: 'I will come down among my people.' This is Jehovah promising to be born and live among His people as Jesus Christ, and to come as a just Judge.
