even in turning their works upon their own heads.

until the night cometh, wherein no man can work.

and as many as were baptized did receive the Holy Ghost.

that will not hearken unto the words of Jesus,

and also to them whom he hath chosen and sent among them;

receiveth not him;

and therefore he will not receive them at the last day;

3 Nephi 28:35

For do ye suppose that ye can get rid of the justice of an offended God,

who hath been trampled under feet of men,

that thereby salvation might come?

yea, even three who were caught up into the heavens,

that I knew not whether they were cleansed from mortality to immortality —

to that which shall take place at the last day;

but there was a change wrought upon them,

and that the powers of the earth could not hold them.

that when the Lord shall see fit, in his wisdom,

that these sayings shall come unto the Gentiles according to his word,

then ye may know that the covenant

which the Father hath made with the children of Israel,

concerning their restoration to the lands of their inheritance,

is already beginning to be fulfilled.

3 Nephi 29:2

which have been spoken by the holy prophets, shall all be fulfilled;

and ye need not say

that the Lord delays his coming unto the children of Israel.

that the words which have been spoken are vain,

for behold, the Lord will remember his covenant

which he hath made unto his people of the house of Israel.

3 Nephi 29:4

and when ye shall see these sayings coming forth among you,

then ye need not any longer spurn at the doings of the Lord,

for the sword of his justice is in his right hand;

and behold, at that day, if ye shall spurn at his doings

he will cause that it shall soon overtake you.

the Lord no longer worketh by revelation, or by prophecy,

or by gifts, or by tongues, or by healings, or by the power of the Holy Ghost!

3 Nephi 29:7

Yea, and wo unto him that shall say at that day,

to get gain,

that there can be no miracle wrought by Jesus Christ;

for whom there was no mercy, according to the word of Christ!

3 Nephi 29:8

nor make game of the Jews, nor any of the remnant of the house of Israel;

for behold, the Lord remembereth his covenant unto them,

and he will do unto them according to that which he hath sworn.
