2 Nephi 11:146 Forasmuch as this people draw near unto me with their mouth, and with their lips do honor me, but have removed their hearts far from me, and their fear towards me is taught by the precepts of men,

Does anybody doubt that this scripture is being fulfilled today?

[2 Nephi 11:148] And wo unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord.
[2 Nephi 11:149] And their works are in the dark; and they say, who seeth us; and who knoweth us?
[2 Nephi 11:150] And they also say, Surely, your turning of things upside down, shall be esteemed as the potter's clay.

Yes, the COC formerly the RLDS has greatly improved on the Lord�s counsel. At least that�s what they think. My comment? Ha Ha Ha

[2 Nephi 11:152] For shall the works say of him that made it, He made me not?

[2 Nephi 12:31] Wo be unto him that crieth, All is well; yea, wo be unto him that hearkeneth unto the precepts of men, and denieth the power of God, and the gift of the Holy Ghost.

[2 Nephi 12:7] � for the Lord and the Redeemer hath done his work, and he hath given his power unto men.
[2 Nephi 12:8] Behold, hearken ye unto my precept:

And aren�t they doing just that?

God�s answer:

[2 Nephi 12:39] Cursed is he that putteth his trust in man, or maketh flesh his arm, or shall hearken unto the precepts of men, save their precepts shall be given by the power of the Holy Ghost.

2 Nephi 11:142 ...I am able to do mine own work;

[1 Corinthians 1:25] Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
