4 Nephi 1:1

And it came to pass that the thirty and fourth year passed away,

and also the thirty and fifth,

and behold the disciples of Jesus had formed a church of Christ

in all the lands round about.

And as many as did come unto them, and did truly repent of their sins,

were baptized in the name of Jesus;

and they did also receive the Holy Ghost.

4 Nephi 1:24

And now, in this two hundred and first year

there began to be among them those who were lifted up in pride,

such as the wearing of costly apparel, and all manner of fine pearls,

and of the fine things of the world.

4 Nephi 1:31

Nevertheless, and notwithstanding all these miracles,

the people did harden their hearts,

and did seek to kill them,

even as the Jews at Jerusalem sought to kill Jesus,

according to his word.

4 Nephi 1:33

And they also cast them into dens of wild beasts,

and they did play with the wild beasts even as a child with a lamb;

and they did come forth from among them, receiving no harm.

4 Nephi 1:38

And it came to pass that they who rejected the gospel

were called Lamanites, and Lemuelites, and Ishmaelites;

and they did not dwindle in unbelief,

but they did wilfully rebel against the gospel of Christ;

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

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

4 Nephi 1:39

And it was because of the wickedness and abomination of their fathers,

even as it was in the beginning.

And they were taught to hate the children of God,

even as the Lamanites were taught

to hate the children of Nephi from the beginning.
