What is meant by the phrase “at ease in Zion”?

Thomas R. Valletta

“The same expression in Amos 6:1 reads literally in Hebrew as ‘woe to those who feel secure in Zion.’ As a matter of fact, all is not well in Zion, even among the Saints of God, at least those who excessively indulge in and adopt the ways of the world.

“Woe to those who listen to the philosophizings of men and at the same time deny God’s power and the gift of the Holy Ghost. Remember, the Holy Ghost is a revelator and delights in revealing eternally tried truths that are firm, steadfast, and immovable” (Ogden and Skinner, Book of Mormon, 1:244–45).
