Alma 45:21

For behold, because of their wars with the Lamanites

and the many little dissensions and disturbances

which had been among the people,

it became expedient that the word of God should be declared among them,

yea, and that a regulation should be made throughout the church.

notwithstanding the preaching of Helaman and his brethren,

yea, notwithstanding their exceedingly great care over the church,

for they were high priests over the church.

Alma 46:28

And now it came to pass that

when Moroni had said these words

he went forth, and also sent forth

in all the parts of the land where there were dissensions,

to stand against Amalickiah and those who had dissented,

who were called Amalickiahites.

Alma 47:36

Now these dissenters,

having the same instruction and the same information of the Nephites,

yea, having been instructed in the same knowledge of the Lord,

nevertheless, it is strange to relate,

not long after their dissensions

they became more hardened and impenitent,

and more wild, wicked and ferocious than the Lamanites —

drinking in with the traditions of the Lamanites;

giving way to indolence, and all manner of lasciviousness;

yea, entirely forgetting the Lord their God.
