Eat, drink, and be merry,

for tomorrow we die; and it shall be well with us.

2 Nephi 28:8

And there shall also be many which shall say:

Eat, drink, and be merry;

nevertheless, fear God —

he will justify in committing a little sin;

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.

and their works shall be in the dark.

2 Nephi 28:14

They wear stiff necks and high heads;

yea, and because of pride, and wickedness, and abominations, and whoredoms,

save it be a few, who are the humble followers of Christ;

nevertheless, they are led, that in many instances they do err

because they are taught by the precepts of men.

But behold, there shall be many —

to recover my people, which are of the house of Israel;

And because my words shall hiss forth —

many of the Gentiles shall say:

A Bible! A Bible! We have got a Bible,

and there cannot be any more Bible.

2 Nephi 29:9

And I do this that I may prove unto many

that I am the same yesterday, today, and forever;

and that I speak forth my words according to mine own pleasure.

And because that I have spoken one word

ye need not suppose that I cannot speak another;

for my work is not yet finished;

neither shall it be until the end of man,

neither from that time henceforth and forever.

2 Nephi 30:2

For behold, I say unto you

that as many of the Gentiles as will repent are the covenant people of the Lord;

for the Lord covenanteth with none

save it be with them that repent

and believe in his Son, who is the Holy One of Israel.

And now, I would prophesy somewhat more concerning the Jews and the Gentiles.

For after the book of which I have spoken shall come forth,

and be written unto the Gentiles,

and sealed up again unto the Lord,

there shall be many which shall believe the words which are written;

and they shall carry them forth unto the remnant of our seed.

for they shall know that it is a blessing unto them from the hand of God;

and their scales of darkness shall begin to fall from their eyes;

and many generations shall not pass away among them,

save they shall be a pure and a delightsome people.

also shall begin to believe in Christ;

and they shall begin to gather in upon the face of the land;

and as many as shall believe in Christ shall also become a delightsome people.
