“They Perish and Are Lost”

Brant Gardner

This fourth generation has heard the call of the people of the spacious building, and followed after them. While not explicitly mentioned, Lehi's dream showed that many who tasted of the fruit would eventually be ashamed due to the tauntings of the people of the spacious building. While it cannot be said of each individual Nephite, as a people they fall into the category of those who taste and fall away.
