Helaman 10:16 - How to Escape Danger

"16 But behold, the power of God was with him, and they could not take him to cast him into prison, for he was taken by the Spirit and conveyed away out of the midst of them."

Through the power of the spirit, Nephi is able to effectively navigate himself out of destructive situations. Christ, too, in His earthly ministry experienced similar circumstances wherein evil men wanted to seize upon Him, however, He was able to pass from their midst without their knowledge. Thus one sees how the spirit serves to help one evade danger and teach more powerfully. Both warned sufficiently to the people about repentance, therefore, it was acceptable to let them escape.
