Jacob 7:2, 7, 9, 12, 20, 23

Jacob 7:2

And it came to pass that he began to preach among the people,

and to declare unto them that there should be no Christ.

And he preached many things which were flattering unto the people;

and this he did that he might overthrow the doctrine of Christ.

Jacob 7:7

And ye have led away much of this people

that they pervert the right way of God,

and keep not the law of Moses which is the right way;

and convert the law of Moses into the worship of a being

which ye say shall come many hundred years hence.

And now behold, I, Sherem, declare unto you that this is blasphemy;

for no man knoweth of such things;

for he cannot tell of things to come.

And after this manner did Sherem contend against me.

Jacob 7:9

And I said unto him: Deniest thou the Christ who shall come?

And he said:

If there should be a Christ,

I would not deny him;

but I know that there is no Christ,

neither has been, nor ever will be.

Jacob 7:12

And this is not all —

it has been made manifest unto me,

for I have heard and seen;

and it also has been made manifest unto me

by the power of the Holy Ghost;

wherefore, I know if there should be no atonement made

all mankind must be lost.

he could say no more, and he gave up the ghost.

Jacob 7:23

And it came to pass that

peace and the love of God was restored again among the people;

and they searched the scriptures,

and hearkened no more to the words of this wicked man.
