2 Nephi 28:3

For it shall come to pass in that day

that the churches which are built up, and not unto the Lord,

Behold, I, I am the Lord's;

and the others shall say:

I, I am the Lord's;

that hath built up churches, and not unto the Lord —

And there shall also be many which shall say:

Eat, drink, and be merry;

nevertheless, fear God —

yea, lie a little,

take the advantage of one because of his words,

dig a pit for thy neighbor;

there is no harm in this;

and do all these things, for tomorrow we die;

and if it so be that we are guilty,

God will beat us with a few stripes,

and at last we shall be saved in the kingdom of God.

because they are taught by the precepts of men.

O the wise, and the learned, and the rich,

for they shall be thrust down to hell!
