Moroni 7:6

For behold, God hath said

a man being evil cannot do that which is good;

for if he offereth a gift, or prayeth unto God,

except he shall do it with real intent

it profiteth him nothing.

Moroni 7:8

For behold, if a man being evil giveth a gift,

he doeth it grudgingly;

wherefore it is counted unto him the same

as if he had retained the gift;

wherefore he is counted evil before God.

Moroni 7:9

And likewise also is it counted evil unto a man,

if he shall pray and not with real intent of heart;

yea, and it profiteth him nothing,

for God receiveth none such.

Moroni 7:10

Wherefore, a man being evil cannot do that which is good;

neither will he give a good gift.

Moroni 7:12

Wherefore, all things which are good cometh of God;

and that which is evil cometh of the devil;

for the devil is an enemy unto God, and fighteth against him continually,

and inviteth and enticeth to sin, and to do that which is evil continually.

Moroni 7:14

Wherefore, take heed, my beloved brethren,

that ye do not judge that which is evil to be of God,

or that which is good and of God to be of the devil.

Moroni 7:15

For behold, my brethren, it is given unto you to judge,

that ye may know good from evil;

and the way to judge is as plain,

that ye may know with a perfect knowledge,

as the daylight is from the dark night.

Moroni 7:16

For behold, the Spirit of Christ is given to every man,

that he may know good from evil;

wherefore, I show unto you the way to judge;

for every thing which inviteth to do good, and to persuade to believe in Christ,

is sent forth by the power and gift of Christ;

wherefore ye may know with a perfect knowledge it is of God.

Moroni 7:17

But whatsoever thing persuadeth men to do evil,

and believe not in Christ, and deny him, and serve not God,

then ye may know with a perfect knowledge it is of the devil;

for after this manner doth the devil work,

for he persuadeth no man to do good, no, not one;

neither do his angels;

neither do they who subject themselves unto him.

Moroni 7:19

Wherefore, I beseech of you, brethren,

that ye should search diligently in the light of Christ

that ye may know good from evil;

and if ye will lay hold upon every good thing, and condemn it not,

ye certainly will be a child of Christ.

Moroni 7:45

And charity suffereth long,

and is kind, and envieth not,

and is not puffed up,

seeketh not her own,

is not easily provoked,

thinketh no evil,

and rejoiceth not in iniquity

but rejoiceth in the truth,

beareth all things,

believeth all things,

hopeth all things,

endureth all things.
