Jacob 7:10, 19, 23

Jacob 7:10

And I said unto him:

Believest thou the scriptures?

And he said, Yea.

Jacob 7:19

And he said:

I fear lest I have committed the unpardonable sin,

for I have lied unto God;

for I denied the Christ, and said that I believed the scriptures;

and they truly testify of him.

And because I have thus lied unto God

I greatly fear lest my case shall be awful;

but I confess unto God.

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.
