3 Nephi 1:19

And it came to pass that there was no darkness in all that night,

but it was as light as though it was mid-day.

And it came to pass that the sun did rise in the morning again,

according to its proper order;

and they knew that it was the day that the Lord should be born,

because of the sign which had been given.

3 Nephi 1:24

And there were no contentions,

save it were a few that began to preach,

endeavoring to prove by the scriptures

that it was no more expedient to observe the law of Moses.

Now in this thing they did err, having not understood the scriptures.

3 Nephi 1:25

But it came to pass that they soon became converted,

and were convinced of the error which they were in,

for it was made known unto them that the law was not yet fulfilled,

and that it must be fulfilled in every whit;

yea, the word came unto them that it must be fulfilled;

yea, that one jot or tittle should not pass away till it should all be fulfilled;

therefore in this same year were they brought to a knowledge of their error

and did confess their faults.

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 2:11

And it came to pass in the thirteenth year

there began to be wars and contentions throughout all the land;

for the Gadianton robbers had become so numerous,

and did slay so many of the people,

and did lay waste so many cities,

and did spread so much death and carnage throughout the land,

that it became expedient that all the people,

both the Nephites and the Lamanites,

should take up arms against them.
