1 Nephi 14:10-14
10 And he said unto me: Behold
there are save two churches only; the one is the church of the Lamb of
God, and the other is the church of the devil; wherefore, whoso
belongeth not to the church of the Lamb of God belongeth to that great
church, which is the mother of abominations; and she is the whore of
all the earth.
11 And it came to pass that I
looked and beheld the whore of all the earth, and she sat upon many
waters; and she had dominion over all the earth, among all nations,
kindreds, tongues, and people.
12
And it came to pass that I beheld the church of the Lamb of God, and
its numbers were few, because of the wickedness and abominations of the
whore who sat upon many waters; nevertheless, I beheld that the church
of the Lamb, who were the saints of God, were also upon all the face of
the earth; and their dominions upon the face of the earth were small,
because of the wickedness of the great whore whom I saw.
13
And it came to pass that I beheld that the great mother of abominations
did gather together multitudes upon the face of all the earth, among
all the nations of the Gentiles, to fight against the Lamb of God.
14 And it came to pass that I,
Nephi, beheld the power of the Lamb of God, that it descended upon the
saints of the church of the Lamb, and upon the covenant people of the
Lord, who were scattered upon all the face of the earth; and they were
armed with righteousness and with the power of God in great glory.
