"Nevertheless, there were many among them who began to be proud, and began to contend warmly with their adversaries, even unto blows; yea, they would smite one another with their fists.
Now this was in the second year of the reign of Alma, and it was a cause of much affliction to the church; yea, it was the cause of much trial with the church.
For the hearts of many were hardened, and their names were blotted out, that they were remembered no more among the people of God. And also many withdrew themselves from among them."
After what I have seen today, I think we are at the verge of this. When you think you are the law unto yourself, the spirit and reasoning withdraw from you. Then it doesn't take long to be sifted, because you do it to yourself.
Day 1859
