#175: “They Did Combine Against the People”

Reflection: Is this where we are again headed?

26 Now it came to pass that they [the corrupted judges] were taken and brought up before the judge, to be judged of the crime which they had done, according to the law which had been given by the people.
27 Now it came to pass that those judges had many friends and kindreds; and the remainder, yea, even almost all the lawyers and the high priests, did gather themselves together, and unite with the kindreds of those judges who were to be tried according to the law.
28 And they did enter into a covenant one with another, yea, even into that covenant which was given by them of old, which covenant was given and administered by the devil, to combine against all righteousness.
29 Therefore they did combine against the people of the Lord, and enter into a covenant to destroy them, and to deliver those who were guilty of murder from the grasp of justice, which was about to be administered according to the law.
30 And they did set at defiance the law and the rights of their country; and they did covenant one with another to destroy the governor, and to establish a king over the land, that the land should no more be at liberty but should be subject unto kings.*

*Book of Mormon | 3 Nephi 6:26-30

#174: “Contrary to the laws of their country”

Self-Reflection: Does this describe any group that I belong to?

22 And it came to pass that they did have their signs, yea, their secret signs, and their secret words; and this that they might distinguish a brother who had entered into the covenant, that whatsoever wickedness his brother should do he should not be injured by his brother, nor by those who did belong to his band, who had taken this covenant.
23 And thus they might murder, and plunder, and steal, and commit whoredoms and all manner of wickedness, contrary to the laws of their country and also the laws of their God.
24 And whosoever of those who belonged to their band should reveal unto the world of their wickedness and their abominations, should be tried, not according to the laws of their country, but according to the laws of their wickedness, which had been given by Gadianton and Kishkumen.
25 Now behold, it is these secret oaths and covenants which Alma commanded his son should not go forth unto the world, lest they should be a means of bringing down the people unto destruction.
26 Now behold, those secret oaths and covenants did not come forth unto Gadianton from the records which were delivered unto Helaman; but behold, they were put into the heart of Gadianton by that same being who did entice our first parents to partake of the forbidden fruit—*

*Book of Mormon | Helaman 6:22-26

#173: “Mischief is in their hearts”

Reflection: Do we see this in or world today?

3 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.

---------------------------------------/
Old Testament | Psalms 28:3

#172: “His heart was only evil continually”

Reflection: If God saw this in the days of Noah, what does He see in our day?

5 ¶ And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

---------------------------------------
Old Testament | Genesis 6:5

#171: “Those workers of darkness”

28 For behold, there is a curse upon all this land, that destruction shall come upon all those workers of darkness, according to the power of God, when they are fully ripe; therefore I desire that this people might not be destroyed.
29 Therefore ye shall keep these secret plans of their oaths and their covenants from this people, and only their wickedness and their murders and their abominations shall ye make known unto them; and ye shall teach them to abhor such wickedness and abominations and murders; and ye shall also teach them that these people were destroyed on account of their wickedness and abominations and their murders.*

*Book of Mormon | Alma 37:28-29

#170: Imagining a Vain Thing

Does this describe the powers in our world?

1 WHY do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against His anointed, saying,
3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.

------------------------------------------------/
Old Testament | Psalms 2:1-3

#169: Warning - “The Greater Condemnation”

3 For of him unto whom much is given much is required; and he who sins against the greater light shall receive the greater condemnation.

Doctrine and Covenants | Section 82:3

#168: Setting at Nought

Self-Reflection: Does this include me?

24 ¶ Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out My hand, and no man regarded;
25 But ye have set at nought all My counsel, and would none of My reproof:

----------------------------------------------------/
Old Testament | Proverbs 1:24-25

#167: “Children of Transgression”

Does this describe anything that we see in our world today?

3 ¶ But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the whore.
4 Against whom do ye sport yourselves? against whom make ye a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood,
5 Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks?

-----------------------------------------/
Old Testament | Isaiah 57:3-5

#166: One Description of the Wicked

2 The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.
3 For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth.
4 The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.
5 His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.
6 He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.*

----------------------------------------------/
*JST Old Testament | Psalms 10:2-6

#165: Warning - “Upon His Own Head”

13 [God] hath also prepared for [the wicked] the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
15 He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.
16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.

-----------------------------------/
Old testament | Proverbs 7:13-16

#164: Warning - “How Long Will Ye love Vanity?

2 O ye sons of men, how long will ye turn My glory into shame? how long will ye love vanity, and seek after leasing? ...*

9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.**

------------------------------------/
* Old Testament | Psalms 4:2
**Old Testament | Psalms 5:9

#163: Warning - Consequence Follows

9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword.*

#162: Woeful Description

(Describing our day?)

1 WHY do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.*

------------------------------------/
* Old Testament | Psalms 2:1 - 3

#161: Blessed Warning

1 BLESSED is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.*

#158: MayDay Voice - “When Immorality Becomes a Culture's Ruling Principle”

“In the days when immorality becomes a culture's ruling principle, the temptations for God's people will be to soften their stands, to bend under the pressure, and to compromise with the dark. But those who do so will disqualify themselves from being used of God as they were meant to be used. The righteous must instead commit to living as did Elijah and to resist all temptation to compromise and all pressure to soften their stand. Rather, they must move in the opposite direction. When the dark grows increasingly darker, it is them that the lights must grow increasingly bright. When evil goes from bad to worse, the righteous must go from good to great In a Christian civilization the candles shine in the light of the sun. But in a post-Christian civilization they shine in the darkness of the night. They become lights of contradiction But it is the contrary light that changes the history of lives and nations. It is the radical light, the light of the candle in the night that lights up the world.”*

#157: Warning - “Let the Rebellious Fear”

6 Wherefore, verily I say, let the wicked take heed, and let the rebellious fear and tremble; and let the unbelieving hold their lips, for the day of wrath shall come upon them as a whirlwind, and all flesh shall know that I am God.
7 And he that seeketh signs shall see signs, but not unto salvation.

#155: Warning: Abiding the Law

22 For he who is not able to abide the law of a celestial kingdom cannot abide a celestial glory.
23 And he who cannot abide the law of a terrestrial kingdom cannot abide a terrestrial glory.
24 And he who cannot abide the law of a telestial kingdom cannot abide a telestial glory; therefore he is not meet for a kingdom of glory. Therefore he must abide a kingdom which is not a kingdom of glory.*
