1 Nephi 22:1

And now it came to pass that after I, Nephi,

had read these things which were engraven upon the plates of brass,

my brethren came unto me and said unto me:

What meaneth these things which ye have read?

Behold, are they to be understood according to things which are spiritual,

which shall come to pass according to the spirit and not the flesh?



1 Nephi 22:2

And I, Nephi, said unto them:

Behold they were manifest unto the prophet by the voice of the Spirit;

for by the Spirit are all things made known unto the prophets,

which shall come upon the children of men according to the flesh.



1 Nephi 22:3

Wherefore, the things of which I have read

are things pertaining to things both temporal and spiritual;

upon all the face of the earth, and also among all nations.



1 Nephi 22:5

And since they have been led away,

these things have been prophesied concerning them,

who shall hereafter be scattered and be confounded,

because of the Holy One of Israel;

for against him will they harden their hearts;

wherefore, they shall be scattered among all nations

and shall be hated of all men.



1 Nephi 22:6

Nevertheless, after they shall be nursed by the Gentiles,

and the Lord has lifted up his hand upon the Gentiles

and set them up for a standard,

and their children have been carried in their arms,

and their daughters have been carried upon their shoulders,

behold these things of which are spoken are temporal;

for thus are the covenants of the Lord with our fathers;

and it meaneth us in the days to come,

and also all our brethren who are of the house of Israel.



1 Nephi 22:18

Behold, my brethren, I say unto you,

that these things must shortly come;

yea, even blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke must come;

and it must needs be upon the face of this earth;

and it cometh unto men according to the flesh

if it so be that they will harden their hearts against the Holy One of Israel.



1 Nephi 22:20

And the Lord will surely prepare a way for his people,

unto the fulfilling of the words of Moses,

which he spake, saying:

A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you, like unto me;

him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

And it shall come to pass that all those who will not hear that prophet

shall be cut off from among the people.



1 Nephi 22:23

For the time speedily shall come that all churches

which are built up to get gain,

and all those who are built up to get power over the flesh,

and those who are built up to become popular in the eyes of the world,

and those who seek the lusts of the flesh and the things of the world,

and to do all manner of iniquity;

yea, in fine, all those who belong to the kingdom of the devil

are they who need fear, and tremble, and quake;

they are those who must be brought low in the dust;

they are those who must be consumed as stubble;

and this is according to the words of the prophet.

that all these things must come according to the flesh.

for I durst not speak further as yet concerning these things.

Wherefore, my brethren, I would that ye should consider

that the things which have been written upon the plates of brass are true;

and they testify that a man must be obedient to the commandments of God.
