2 Nephi 25:8

Wherefore, they are of worth unto the children of men,

and he that supposeth that they are not,

unto them will I speak particularly,

and confine the words unto mine own people;

for I know that they shall be of great worth unto them in the last days;

for in that day shall they understand them;

wherefore, for their good have I written them.



2 Nephi 25:18

Wherefore, he shall bring forth his words unto them,

which words shall judge them at the last day,

for they shall be given them for the purpose of convincing them

of the true Messiah, who was rejected by them;

and unto the convincing of them

that they need not look forward any more for a Messiah to come,

for there should not any come, save it should be a false Messiah

which should deceive the people;

for there is save one Messiah spoken of by the prophets,

and that Messiah is he who should be rejected of the Jews.



2 Nephi 26:14

But behold, I prophesy unto you concerning the last days;

concerning the days when the Lord God shall bring these things forth

unto the children of men.



2 Nephi 27:1

But, behold, in the last days, or in the days of the Gentiles —

yea, behold all the nations of the Gentiles and also the Jews,

both those who shall come upon this land

and those who shall be upon other lands,

yea, even upon all the lands of the earth,

behold, they will be drunken with iniquity and all manner of abominations —
