Doctrine and Covenants D&C 18:23
"there is none other name given whereby man can be saved;"
Book of Mormon 2 Nephi 31:21
"this is the way; and there is none other way nor name given under heaven whereby man can be saved in the kingdom of God."

Shared words: whereby man can be saved

Nephi's closing inserts 'way nor' before 'name', adds 'under heaven', and extends with 'in the kingdom of God'; the revelation has none of the three. The shared spine — 'none other… name given… whereby man can be saved' — is otherwise word-for-word. Nephi states it as the close of the doctrine of Christ; the revelation as the ground for taking the name upon oneself (D&C 18:24).
