Morm. 3:2
And it came to pass that the Lord did say unto me: Cry unto this people-- Repent ye, and come unto me, and be ye baptized, and build up again my church, and ye shall be spared.

Morm. 8:38
O ye pollutions, ye hypocrites, ye teachers, who sell yourselves for that which will canker, why have ye polluted the holy church of God? Why are ye ashamed to take upon you the name of Christ? Why do ye not think that greater is the value of an endless happiness than that misery which never dies-- because of the praise of the world?
