“For Satan Did Stir Them Up to Do Iniquity Continually”

Brant Gardner

At the same time as angels were appearing to “wise men,” Satan stirred up the rest to all kinds of justifications of their actions. As the time of the Messiah’s birth approaches, the two paths of the Nephite people are both well defined, and well-divergent. The righteous believe and anxiously await. The unrighteous disbelieve, and condemn the believers. The differences are brewing a heady tension in the society.
