Abstract

During his Sermon at the Temple, the Savior warned against "false prophets in sheep's clothing" who "inwardly are ravening wolves." The Book of Mormon is filled with examples of apostates and discontents who stirred up contention for their own gain. Just as the former day saints needed to be on their guard against such predators, so do Latter-day Saints today.
