75 For he receiveth for his wages an everlasting punishment, having transgressed the law of God, contrary to his own knowledge.

76 I say unto you, that there are not any among you, except it be your little children, that have not been taught concerning these things, but what knoweth that ye are eternally indebted to your heavenly Father,

77 To render to him all that you have, and are, and also have been taught, concerning the records which contain the prophecies which have been spoken by the holy prophets, even down to the time our father Lehi left Jerusalem; and also, all that has been spoken by our fathers, until now.

78 And behold, also, they spake that which was commanded them of the Lord; therefore, they are just and true.

79 And now, I say unto you, my brethren, that after ye have known and have been taught all these things, if ye should transgress, and go contrary to that which has been spoken, that ye do withdraw yourselves from the Spirit of the Lord, that it may have no place in you to guide you in wisdom's path, that ye may be blessed, prospered, and preserved.

80 I say unto you, that the man that doeth this, the same cometh out in open rebellion against God;

81 Therefore he listeth to obey the evil spirit, and becometh an enemy to all righteousness;

82 Therefore, the Lord has no place in him, for he dwelleth not in unholy temples.

83 Therefore, if that man repenteth not, and remaineth and dieth an enemy to God, the demands of divine justice doth awaken his immortal soul to a lively sense of his own guilt,

84 Which doth cause him to shrink from the presence of the Lord, and doth fill his breast with guilt, and pain, and anguish, which is like an unquenchable fire, whose flames ascendeth up for ever and ever.

85 And now I say unto you, that mercy hath no claim on that man; therefore, his final doom is to endure a never ending torment.
