Moroni slips from description to exhortation. Keying in on the churches for gain, he addresses the modern world and wonders why they have allowed such a perversion of God’s word to take place. He would have been particularly dismayed with this, for he would have read his father’s work and known of the problems the Nephites had with the conceptually similar order of the Nehors. Moroni encourages the world to return to the scriptures to learn of the true God.
