Mormon 9:3, 4



Mormon 8:33

O ye wicked and perverse and stiffnecked people,

why have ye built up churches unto yourselves to get gain?

Why have ye transfigured the holy word of God,

that ye might bring damnation upon your souls?

Behold, look ye unto the revelations of God;

for behold, the time cometh at that day

when all these things must be fulfilled.



Mormon 8:38

O ye pollutions, ye hypocrites,

ye teachers, who sell yourselves for that which will canker,

why have ye polluted the holy church of God?

Why are ye ashamed to take upon you the name of Christ?

Why do ye not think that greater is the value of an endless happiness

than that misery which never dies —

because of the praise of the world?



Mormon 9:3

Then will ye longer deny the Christ,

or can ye behold the Lamb of God?

Do ye suppose that ye shall dwell with him

under a consciousness of your guilt?

Do ye suppose that ye could be happy to dwell with that holy Being,

when your souls are racked with a consciousness of guilt

that ye have ever abused his laws?



Mormon 9:4

Behold, I say unto you

that ye would be more miserable to dwell with a holy and just God,

under a consciousness of your filthiness before him,

than ye would to dwell with the damned souls in hell.
