After the positive comments of the preceding verses, Mormon pronounces a wo upon those who will deny “these sayings,” or the Book of Mormon. They will be denying the revelations of God, and therefore denying the Christ as well. In keeping with the black and white preaching in the Book of Mormon, there will be those who will accept the sayings and become heirs of the kingdom, and there will be those who will not accept the sayings, and upon those, judgment and condemnation will be pronounced.
This ends a chapter in the 1830 edition of the Book of Mormon.
