Alma 46:7, 10



Alma 46:7

And there were many in the church

who believed in the flattering words of Amalickiah,

therefore they dissented even from the church;

and thus were the affairs of the people of Nephi

exceedingly precarious and dangerous,

notwithstanding their great victory which they had had over the Lamanites,

and their great rejoicings which they had had

because of their deliverance by the hand of the Lord.



Alma 46:10

Yea, we see that Amalickiah,

because he was a man of cunning device and a man of many flattering words,

that he led away the hearts of many people to do wickedly;

yea, and to seek to destroy the church of God,

and to destroy the foundation of liberty

which God had granted unto them,

or which blessing God had sent upon the face of the land

for the righteous' sake.
