Jacob 7:7, 9, 14

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 7:14

And I said unto him:

What am I that I should tempt God to show unto thee a sign

in the thing which thou knowest to be true?

Yet thou wilt deny it, because thou art of the devil.

Nevertheless, not my will be done;

but if God shall smite thee, let that be a sign unto thee

that he has power, both in heaven and in earth;

and also, that Christ shall come.

And thy will, O Lord, be done, and not mine.
