2 Nephi 28:3, 21, 22, 30,

2 Nephi 29:4

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,

when the one shall say unto the other:

Behold, I, I am the Lord's;

and the others shall say:

I, I am the Lord's;

and thus shall every one say

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

2 Nephi 28:21

And others will he pacify, and lull them away into carnal security,

that they will say:

All is well in Zion;

yea, Zion prospereth,

all is well —

and thus the devil cheateth their souls,

and leadeth them away carefully down to hell.

2 Nephi 28:22

And behold, others he flattereth away, and telleth them

there is no hell;

and he saith unto them:

I am no devil,

for there is none —

and thus he whispereth in their ears,

until he grasps them with his awful chains,

from whence there is no deliverance.

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.

2 Nephi 29:4

But thus saith the Lord God:

O fools, they shall have a Bible;

and it shall proceed forth from the Jews, mine ancient covenant people.

And what thank they the Jews for the Bible which they receive from them?

Yea, what do the Gentiles mean?

Do they remember the travails, and the labors, and the pains of the Jews,

and their diligence unto me, in bringing forth salvation unto the Gentiles?
