Reading Assignment: 1 Nephi 12-13
Points to Ponder:
- What is the great and abominable Church?
- What does Nephi learn about the future of his people?
- What is one of the purposes of the Book of Mormon according to these chapters?

What does the great and abominable Church represent?
Elder Bruce R.
McConkie
“The titles church of the devil and great and abominable
church are used to identify all … organizations of whatever name or nature—whether
political, philosophical, educational, economic, social, fraternal, civic, or
religious—which are
designed to take men on a course that leads away from God and his laws
and thus from salvation in the kingdom of God” (Bruce R. McConkie, Mormon
Doctrine, 2nd ed. [1966], 137–38).
