This lesson contains some powerful doctrine. We have Lamoni, a man no different than the average Lamanite, believing there was no such thing as sin, being taught in what is assumed to be one day, the three pillars of the Plan of Salvation, namely the Creation, the Fall, and the Atonement. In addition, Ammon counts the blessings of mankind and his people in particular. Aaron does the same for Lamoni's father.
Lamoni repents, and sees the Savior. He has his Calling and Election made Sure. Soon, his wife, and servants, also receive the Savior, and go about preaching of what they have seen.
Lamoni's Father also repents, but does not state specifically that he saw Jehovah. Most likely he did, but it is not specifically recorded here.
How can two wicked Lamanites be forgiven and receive the Second Comforter in a single week, and prior to baptism? This lesson is an excellent section of the Book of Mormon to study as a lesson manual for receiving the Second Comforter in our own lives.
