3 Nephi 1:23

And it came to pass that

Nephi went forth among the people, and also many others,

baptizing unto repentance, in the which there was a great remission of sins.

And thus the people began again to have peace in the land.

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.
