2 Nephi 28:5, 6, 30

2 Nephi 28:5

And they deny the power of God, the Holy One of Israel;

and they say unto the people:

Hearken unto us, and hear ye our precept;

for behold there is no God today,

for the Lord and the Redeemer hath done his work,

and he hath given his power unto men;

2 Nephi 28:6

Behold, hearken ye unto my precept;

if they shall say there is a miracle wrought by the hand of the Lord,

believe it not;

for this day he is not a God of miracles;

he hath done his work.

2 Nephi 28:30

For behold, thus saith the Lord God:

I will give unto the children of men line upon line, precept upon precept,

here a little and there a little;

and blessed are those who hearken unto my precepts,

and lend an ear unto my counsel,

for they shall learn wisdom;

for unto him that receiveth I will give more;

and from them that shall say, We have enough,

from them shall be taken away even that which they have.
