"By the Wicked.. the Wicked Are Punished," Mormon 4

Mormon 4

This is a very sad chapter in the history of man.

Vs. 4 - The Nephites provoked war and were consequently smitten.

The Gospel was there. The people rejected it. It is fact then that peace is brought through the Gospel plan.

"The Lord Seeth Fit to Chasten His People," Mosiah 23:19-24

I took a pause from this study to reflect over in John 6 . At least twice within that passage, the phrase "the resurrection of the just" had been added back into the passage in the Joseph Smith Translation. No man can come unto me, except he doeth the will of my Father who hath sent me. And this is the will of him who hath sent me, that ye receive the Son; for the Father beareth record of him; and he who receiveth the testimony, and doeth the will of him who sent me, I will raise up in the resurrection of the just. ( JST - John 6:44 ) Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up in the resurrection of the just at the last day.
