2 Nephi 27:16

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.

2 Nephi 27:16

And now, because of the glory of the world and to get gain will they say this,

and not for the glory of God.
