2 Nephi 28:6, 8, 9,
2 Nephi 29:9
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 28:8
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.
2 Nephi 28:9
Yea, and there shall be many
which shall teach after this manner, false and vain and foolish doctrines,
and shall be puffed up in their hearts,
and shall seek deep to hide their counsels from the Lord;
and their works shall be in the dark.
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.
