Lift up your head and be of good cheer;

for behold, the time is at hand,

to show unto the world that I will fulfil all that

which I have caused to be spoken by the mouth of my holy prophets.

3 Nephi 2:2

Imagining up some vain thing in their hearts,

that it was wrought by men and by the power of the devil,

to lead away and deceive the hearts of the people;

and thus did Satan get possession of the hearts of the people again,

insomuch that he did blind their eyes

and lead them away to believe

that the doctrine of Christ was a foolish and a vain thing.

3 Nephi 2:7

when the sign was given, which was spoken of by the prophets,

that Christ should come into the world.
