there were many churches in the land;

yea, there were many churches which professed to know the Christ,

and did administer that which was sacred unto him

to whom it had been forbidden because of unworthiness.

were called Lamanites, and Lemuelites, and Ishmaelites;

and they did teach their children that they should not believe,

even as their fathers, from the beginning, did dwindle.
