And the people who were in the land northward

did dwell in tents, and in houses of cement,

and they did suffer whatsoever tree should spring up upon the face of the land

and all manner of their buildings.

Helaman 5:12

And now, my sons, remember, remember

that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer,

who is Christ, the Son of God,

that ye must build your foundation;

that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds,

yea, his shafts in the whirlwind,

yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you,

it shall have no power over you

to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo,

because of the rock upon which ye are built,

which is a sure foundation,

a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall.



Helaman 6:28

And also it is that same being who put it into the hearts of the people

to build a tower sufficiently high that they might get to heaven.

And it was that same being

who led on the people who came from that tower into this land;

who spread the works of darkness and abominations

over all the face of the land,

until he dragged the people down

to an entire destruction, and to an everlasting hell.

yea, insomuch that they had become exceedingly wicked;

yea, the more part of them had turned out of the way of righteousness,

and did trample under their feet the commandments of God,

and did turn unto their own ways,

and did build up unto themselves idols of their gold and their silver.



Helaman 6:38

And it came to pass on the other hand,

that the Nephites did build them up and support them,

beginning at the more wicked part of them,

until they had overspread all the land of the Nephites,

and had seduced the more part of the righteous

until they had come down to believe in their works

and partake of their spoils,

and to join with them in their secret murders and combinations.
