106 They did not believe what had been said concerning the resurrection of the dead; neither did they believe concerning the coming of Christ.
107 And now because of their unbelief, they could not understand the word of God; and their hearts were hardened.
108 And they would not be baptized; neither would they join the church.
109 And they were a separate people as to their faith, and remained so ever after, even in their carnal and sinful state; for they would not call upon the Lord their God.
110 And now in the reign of Mosiah, they were not half so numerous as the people of God; but because of the dissensions among the brethren, they became more numerous.
111 For it came to pass that they did deceive many with their flattering words, who were in the church, and did cause them to commit many sins;
112 Therefore it became expedient that those who committed sin that were in the church, should be admonished by the church.
113 And it came to pass that they were brought before the priests, and delivered up unto the priests by the teachers; and the priests brought them before Alma, who was the high priest.
114 Now King Mosiah had given Alma the authority over the church.
115 And it came to pass that Alma did not know concerning them, for there were many witnesses against them; yea, the people stood and testified of their iniquity in abundance.
116 Now there had not any such thing happened before, in the church; therefore Alma was troubled in his spirit, and he caused that they should be brought before the king.
