2 Nephi 25:16

And after they have been scattered,

and the Lord God hath scourged them

by other nations for the space of many generations,

yea, even down from generation to generation

until they shall be persuaded to believe in Christ, the Son of God,

and the atonement, which is infinite for all mankind —

and when that day shall come that they shall believe in Christ,

and worship the Father in his name, with pure hearts and clean hands,

and look not forward any more for another Messiah,

then, at that time, the day will come

that it must needs be expedient that they should believe these things.

2 Nephi 26:11

For the Spirit of the Lord will not always strive with man.

And when the Spirit ceaseth to strive with man then cometh speedy destruction,

and this grieveth my soul.

2 Nephi 27:18

then shall the learned say:

I cannot read it.

2 Nephi 27:20

then shall the Lord God say unto him:

The learned shall not read them,

for they have rejected them,

and I am able to do mine own work;

wherefore thou shalt read the words which I shall give unto thee.

2 Nephi 27:22

Wherefore, when thou hast read the words which I have commanded thee,

and obtained the witnesses which I have promised unto thee,

then shalt thou seal up the book again, and hide it up unto me,

that I may preserve the words which thou hast not read,

until I shall see fit in mine own wisdom

to reveal all things unto the children of men.
