2 Nephi 26:10, 20, 29

2 Nephi 26:10

And when these things have passed away

a speedy destruction cometh unto my people;

for, notwithstanding the pains of my soul, I have seen it;

wherefore, I know that it shall come to pass;

and they sell themselves for naught;

for, for the reward of their pride and their foolishness they shall reap destruction;

for because they yield unto the devil

and choose works of darkness rather than light,

therefore they must go down to hell.

2 Nephi 26:20

And the Gentiles are lifted up in the pride of their eyes,

and have stumbled, because of the greatness of their stumbling block,

that they have built up many churches;

nevertheless, they put down the power and miracles of God,

and preach up unto themselves their own wisdom and their own learning,

that they may get gain and grind upon the face of the poor.

2 Nephi 26:29

He commandeth that there shall be no priestcrafts;

for, behold, priestcrafts are that men preach and set themselves up

for a light unto the world,

that they may get gain and praise of the world;

but they seek not the welfare of Zion.
